I agree about the DS child in public. Last year, at less than 6mo old (when immunity kicks in better) he was lugged across the country and exposed to millions of people during the begining of flu season. This year, with H1N1 (and the mutation) running around, he is again being lugged around the nation and exposed to thousands of people. Remember that H1N1 has proven especially deadly to those with pre-existing conditions and the mutation especially deadly to young children. The H1N1 has just peaked two weeks ago (aka maximum number of exposed contageous people around)

Yes, he may be vacinated, but vacine requies an immune system to build up the protection. Hence vacinated people still get ill.

I can only imagine the kind of martyre (sp?) she’d make of herself if he caught something and died. I can’t for the life of me understand why no parent is voicing concern about Piper and Trigg being hauled all over the country during flu season.

@ your perception of Piper… she always looks like she’s scowling to me. I see a very deep seated hate when I see her in videos. I think she has to potential to become far worse than her mother. Remember that the older kids had a form of life before Palin’s political aspirations… Piper has been a “poster child” since birth (worse, mama P has been reminding her of that fact as well). I’ve known children raised in those circumstances where just being a kid is forbidden. In the kids I’ve known, its created some serious resentments that always find an outlet and the child takes all of the parent’s bad habits and magnifies them exponentially. WHen I consider Palin’s willfullness and inability to tell the truth, I can’t even begin to imagine how bad Piper will be as a teen.

Just a thought… for those who may shred this book… consider donating the shredded paper to local humane society for bedding… they generally are always in need of bedding. If your local society doesn’t need it, send the book to me and I’ll shred it for mine.

Also, I missed Alaska’s Annual Turkey Pardon, was that done in secret this year? If anyone has a link, could you provide it?

Thanks for the work in synopsis of the book!

Happy holiday to everyone!

AKM, my hero. I am stunned at how much I have enjoyed the book! The entire blog post really needs to be widely published. A masterpiece!

Mag the Mick @42
I feel like I am bleeding out of my eyes, ears, and nose after reading your latest synopsis. I feel like Lord Peter Wimsey, shut up in the bell tower in “The Nine Tailors”.

FOTFL, Mag – this is THE best description of my own reaction!
Thanks AKM for the book blog. I honestly don’t think I could stomach actually reading more than a page or two. GACK.

On page 377: “Doesn’t need a title to effect change…”
So why does she continue to have herself called “Governor” ????!!!!!

Palin’s description’s of how she has consulted Track on all of her major political decisions remind me of the parents of Oedipus Rex consulting the Oracles at Delphi.
Oedipal complex anyone?

I wish any Sarah supporter would read this so they could finally see what she really is. But, as proven a couple of times even when they are confronted with the real facts they chose not to believe, so guess it doesn’t matter. But, I do appreciate being able to read the enitre book here and did not have to buy it, so thank you for that.

I’ve been sucked in to the vortex, reading your synopsis. My poor dogs have watched me read in the evenings all week, and they can’t wait for you to wade through the last dredges of this muck so we can get out in the fresh air again. Thanks for your fortitude.

Don’t know how on earth you got through this chapter – it sounds mind-numbingly boring and pointless full of vapid cliches and vacuous nonsense (I mean even more so than the rest of the book, which is quite an achievement in itself). Her writing style even summarized sounds like nails on a chalkboard

Do yourself a favor when you finish reading this crap and either do some meditation/holistic therapy or take a holiday. Being exposed to so much toxic waste and poisonous garbage can be destructive to the soul

I just saw clips of Palin fans and they are as clueless as she is on everything. When asked a direct question they have no answer but yet they mouth off the same talking points, government too big etc., etc. and one person said Obama didn’t love the country cause he didn’t say it. Can you believe that? What? you have to tell the country you love America like Sarah Palin? She loves the country cause only a LIAR like her can FOOL idiots into giving her money and buying into her bullcrap. Everyone here loves the country that’s why we are so dead set against the EVIL she is and represents. I have one thing to say to her and that is GOD IS WATCHING.
