The Magnificence Of Me
Sarah Palin Bears It All
"The most amazing aspect of Sarah Palin’s autobiography, Going Rogue: An American Life, is that in just a few short months, Governor Palin has mastered the art of standard English. Flawless, lucid, flowing language pours from each page in the Governor’s stunning rags-to-riches account of her remarkable life. As a prose stylist, clearly she has few peers. William Safire immediately comes to mind but also Carlyle and Addison and Steele. More startling—and even her detractors will agree with this—is the speed with which Governor Palin wrote her autobiography, which can only be the product of the well-organized mind of a genuinely talented writer. The book has appeared months before its original planned date, all because of the Governor’s remarkable gifts of self-reflection."
"Governor Palin is fully cognizant of Americans’ desire that she be the next President of the United States. Her frontal approach to the question that all of us have asked ourselves is refreshingly honest. She admits that Going Rogue: An American Life will serve as her official campaign biography and that she wrote it at this juncture in her life so that once she receives the nomination of her party, “Someone else won’t have to write a quickie job.” In her directness, Governor Palin writes that her decision not to serve her full term as the governor of Alaska was prompted by her realization that she had already accomplished all that was needed for the state. There was nothing left for her to do.
More startlingly, she states that if elected President of the United States, she will probably not serve the full eight years. “If I can do for my country as a whole what I did for Alaska in less than a full term, why would I want to stay in the position for such a lengthy time? To stay longer would be a waste of my talents. I’ll move on to something more challenging—the United Nations, for example, or even the Supreme Court—places where I have long realized I can contribute even more.”

jaysus, you had me with the first line "The most amazing aspect of Sarah Palin’s autobiography, Going Rogue: An American Life" Now this would have been funny if she'd named it "Going Commando: A Cold Arse Life"
What is it with all these young Us politicians, Obama, Palin, etc,writing autobiographies when they have
A. done eff all
and
B. Have far too many years left to live LOL
I'll bet you dimes to donuts she didn't write that pile of literary refuse at all, she had a ghost writer doing it for years. There's a process to follow and I bet the damn thing was done by deadline with all the advances paid!
These people are shameless in their self promotion and the sick thing is, they believe all their own bullsh*t!
F*cking elitists, ought to line them all up along a wall behind the courthouse and...
I must admit, I love Sarah Palin. She and her trailer trash posse, along with her pretentious sense of self worth, coupled with mouthbreathers' adulation of her nothingness is an endless source of horrified amusement.
I enjoyed the author's onionesque book review from Counterpunch, and I swear I'll eat dirt if she wrote one word of that screed.
When is this vapid woman going to do us all a favor and fade away into post-political oblivion and go do something more appropriate, such as modeling those "Christian sex toys" we saw earlier in the week.
