Sarah Palin’s New Book Cover. Step AWAY from the Airbrush…
Well, here it is. The cover of “Sarah Palin’s” second “book.” This one is even less written by her than the last one that wasn’t written by her. Gone is the red jogging suit and the gazing off into the sky. But she’s still wearing a flag pin. Now, there’s even a flag bracelet. So, lots of flags. But the faith and family part seems not to be represented.
My pick would have been to have her wearing a giant cross, holding Trig and wrapped in a flag. We know after the Runner’s World photo shoot that she doesn’t have any particular “allegiance” (if you will) to flag etiquette. If she can throw it over a bar stool and lean on it, surely wearing it like a shawl would be OK.
And maybe it’s just me. You can pipe up here. But doesn’t it look like the airbrush guy might have tied one on the night before? The retouching seems a bit… overzealous. I’m sensing a definite difference in the size of her eyes, and her nose is listing fairly dramatically to one side. In addition to being a little mismatched, the eyes have suddenly changed color to match her wardrobe. Didn’t they used to be brown? The whole thing is just a little off. Kind of like the “author.”
The book is due out in November, just in time to stuff those stockings. Expect to find all kinds of quotes that sound cool, and stuff other people wrote. And, yes, I remember my promise. I will drop another $19.95 so you don’t have to, and I’ll blog all about it. Who knows what’s in store for next year? I’m thinking a wild game cook book. Mark my words…
“surely wearing it like a shawl would be OK.”
I got it! Wear it as a prayer shawl, with fringes, to show solidarity with Israel.
Hey, as long as I’m here. I have a question about that tweet about the border http://blogs.scripting2.com/amyloo/images/2010/07/30/headedtoborder.jpg
Does she think the president is watching her every move and is intent on matching it step for step?
Delusional people have delusional thoughts. So, yeah, I am sure she thinks so.
We know $arah reads her simpering, stupid ‘bots comments at Crazies4Palin so she has come to believe that President Obama is hanging on her every word simply because they say he does. There is not a group of Palin admirers more delusional than those found at C4P, however, if there is, I’d rather not know about them. C4P is nausea-inducing as it is!
Fun knowing how insanely jealous she is of the President.
Yes. Doesn’t the preoccupation seem to signal an intent to run, or is that reading in too much?
Bonus: http://learnandteachonline.com/audiopunishment/torturetool.htm
Good one!
This woman exhibits the most delusional hateful behavior that I have witnessed outside of high school. How can her followers be so naive? How can they suggest that this emotionally crippled, intellectually challenged individual has any place in any kind of leadership role? She’s like the girl we all knew (way back when) who would rip into the character or criticize the attire of a rival to make herself seem more important or more attractive. Sadly, she embodies everything that is currently wrong in American politics.
Not even high school… this is mean girl junior high style. $owah is Sooooooo 7th grade!
I agree with the seventh grade level. And to think our president is married to an African-American, and does not want her. Don’t you know all the men want her, and the POTUS will not call her. Whine, whine, whine.
Palin is still in high school mentally. Don’t mistake her intent, she is already running for president, no maybes about it.
She seems to think that he should be tailoring his appearance schedule to her liking.
Dontcha know??? The entire WORLD revolves around Princess Wind Between Her Ears!!!!!
I heard (shhhhh…don’t tell anyone) that there’s a Secret Service agent assigned to follow her 24/7 so that the President knows what she’s doing every moment of every day. ‘Cause, ya know, she’s got her finger on the pulse of ‘rill Amurka’ and he just can’t keep up. He hangs on her every word so as not to miss any of those pearls of widsom that drop from her lips, uh, twitter and facebook pages. He just wouldn’t know WHAT to do without her leading the way, dontcha know!
Sigh…it’s just soooooo hard being the most wonderfulest, specialest, beautifulest, intelligentest, honestest, bestest person in the whole, wide world…
You had me smilin’ ear to ear!
you forgot Christianest.
Christianisticest?
Christianistiest?
Dontcha know??? The entire WORLD revolves around Princess Wind Between Her Ears!!!!!
perfect name for whatzherface.
Wow! One of the best names yet and I’m certain the Alaskan Natives would certainly agree with this dead-on description. After all, doesn’t everyone come bearing cooking when those in need of money for fuel and actual food ask for assistance. Oops! Almost forgot to mention she brought Franklin Graham and prayer booklets so they could pray for help after they left since they did absolutely NOTHING for them.
In fact, if it weren’t for the whole different time zone thing, you just KNOW that Michelle would wear the EXACT SAME THING as $owah…
*big eye roll*
Take your Lamictal, $owah. Just take it.
Well, she is the center of our universe, after all…
No offense to Sarah Palin, but as good as this President is, I can’t imagine he has time to track the daily doings of one Alaskan resident. He seems to be kind of busy with, you know, running the country and stuff.
Oh for sure she does. She is indignant still that he hasn’t accepted her “Call me!” invitation.
Glass jaw. Delicate ego. Tread softly with poor old Sarah, she’s very fragile.
I don’t think he’s even poked her back on Facebook!
LOL! Love this!
heehee
lol THAT’S why she’s on his case every day!
Definitely march Palin out to the border. Good one. This personally makes me dislike her politics more. Great face for the non-acceptance of minorities-irony there. I can see both sides of the issue for the simple part of what is the Government’s responsibility. But for me it is simple. These are people, human beings, (moms, children, and fathers). When people scream “alien” it denotes a little green being. And evidently we wont welcome them either. We offer jobs and expect them not to come. Do we know what they face and why they come here to work? I don’t see the welcome signs, so why do they still come? We fail to fix and enforce immigration reform. And we have goof ball battle axes saying, “Do your job Mr. President.” Well why don’t you try telling your own AZ senators to do their jobs and act on immigration reform. Your call for the President to do his job is nothing but a torch to inflame negative feelings for people who believe in cultural diversity. There favorite Repub President gave amnesty but their logic is to poor money into securing the border with fences. People are leaving AZ, don’t you think Mexico will tell people not go to AZ? There are other borders which evidently history has been forgotten. There is a huge perception problem in AZ. And as a minority for me it reads loud and clear. “We will decide who can be American or who is American.” Are these the same ding bats that want to see the President’s papers? (McCain/Kyl) Last time I checked they worked for the government, so DO YOUR JOB. Do both secure the border and act on reform now. Evidently people are getting over the darn fence. There are those who think this is a win for Republicans but I guarantee it will not be long term. How many people know their true heritage? Would it be okay for us to start doing this to everyone because we suspect that they are illegals? Will it settle things when we start with another ethnic group, then when will it stop? Where would all of us minorities go? Let’s be honest people from Mexico are coming through their borders and they have skin like many of us. You might be next!!!
You’re right – that nose is really off. Maybe someone finally snapped and clocked her one.
So – will anyone be putting together a book like “Going Rouge” to go up against this one ? I would love a collection of quotes by the Founding Fathers that truly reflect their views on religion’s connection to the new republic. Let’s include passages from not only from the Christian bible but also teachings from a wide variety of religions that reflect the way of peace and brotherhood. And family – don’t even get me started on what we could do with family .
“go up against this one ?”
Hmmm, to go up against it you’d have to find a really stupid person with a really stupid ghost writer. Who could that be?
..someone already did!! Saw it in the Santa Cruz Bookstore – It’s called :The Wit and Wisdom of Sarah Palin” … and all the pages are BLANK !!!
Where can I get one? This might just be the bestest present ever for BIL from hel*!!!!
Why don’t the mudflatters do it? It could be fun!
I vote for a book that fact checks her ridiculous statements, one by one: seeing Russia from AK, the bridge to nowhere, selling the Gov. plane on ebay, Kodiak Island the largest in US…it might actually have to be a series. And flyinyureye could do the cover…now there’s a moneymaker!
Great idea for a book! Sorry to say, after reluctantly reading Going Rogue, I absolutely cannot force myself to read ‘her’ new one. I have never been that much of a glutton for punishment. There really, really are people who believe that Palin has had the time to write books … in between being a devoted mother taking care of her children, a loving wife cooking supper for her husband, traveling all over the country inspiring us all with her wonderful way of putting words together, and getting on Bill O’Reilly’s nerves, and … Makes one wonder what the average IQ of Palin followers is?
only thing missing is the horns.
And the curled claws.
And the FABULOUS shoes.
Why is such a pretty woman allowing her handlers to stroll her down the “mean girl path?” I also love when her fans say things like, “you are jealous because she is pretty.” Well okay but when she opens her mouth- she is not. And your point is…
And the huge wart on her chin with the single inch-long curly hair .
The crazist thing is – she APPROVED it.
Sadly, Amyloo, yes she does.
Loved last yrs Going Rogue blogging, AKM. Looking fwd to new bookblog.
That lady on the cover resembles Sarah Palin. Maybe it’s her sister? You know, that secret twin who has been in hiding for some weird, only the Palins would understand it, reason.
On another note, are all of these flags really patriotic? Aren’t they “apparel?”
Article 8d in Chapter One of the U. S. Code states, “The flag should never be used as wearing apparel, bedding, or drapery,” and article 8j states, “No part of the flag should ever be used as a costume or athletic uniform. However, a flag patch may be affixed to the uniform of military personnel, firemen, policemen, and members of patriotic organizations.”
Well that means members of the GOP/AIP are definitely not supposed to be wearing flags.
any way to tweet the code about her stupid bracelet?
Want to guess what her push-up bra is made of?
Sort of reverse Dorian Grey. Behind the frightful hag we know, there’s a sweet, bright, honest woman only visible in airbrushed images and other people’s writings.
Loved that comment, KateinCanada!
Not to mention the mess they made of her neck trying to out the wrinkles. YIKES!!! Can we say giraffe????
Bummer. I logged in to get my “flats fix” and there she is. I think I threw up in my mouth.
here’s an old photoshop trick
The DARKEN tool!
You can add enhance slight makeup
I think that is what is happening to her eyes
Take the little darkening tool and line the eyes and “eyeshadow” appears
definitely what is going on in the corner of her eyes
really a shoddy job, I agree
With all the high dollar cameras/lenses/lighting
and a professional makeup job.. all this isn’t necessary
try it with your own foto
same with her lipstick
they tried to give her “upper lips” but their hand was too shaky
or they didn’t bother doing it right by blowing the photo up huge and going pixel by pixel
I bet she looks like a scare crow in the original
and yes, the flawless skin is airbrushed/contrasted/lightened/cloned
I wouldn’t expect her to have a nakkid, raw face with all her flaws on the cover of a book
EVERY author would have a pristine photo gracing the cover
but this is very sloppy
and even the attempt to whiten her teeth
(always lighten the teeth and pupils)
she is missing the separation of teeth!
It is like they took the lightening brush and just did a big swoop
Annes!! so that’s how it is done!! who knew?
Hmmm. They did enlarge her wonky eye. But they still haven’t done anything to color those cold dead extremely pale money grubbing hands. What–don’t they ever get tan? Maybe its because she’s always got them in someone else’s pocket?
Oh, very good!
Drum roll, please! Very nice, Leota!
sweet!!!
One of the best comments yet about her grifting! And, yes, they are always in someone else’s pocket because we know she never spends any of her own money when she can spend OPM !!
Disappointed. I thought there would be a moose rack in the background and an apple pie beside the flag jewelries.
Where is the plate of cookies?
I thought she’d be showing off her new rack as well.
What do you want to betcha that she spent more time posing for the photograph than writing a thanks to her FOX buddies. But this time I betcha she leaves BOR off.
I see she’s weighed in on Obama’s appearance on the View.
She thinks he should be doing what she’s planning to do instead, and visit the Arizona border to do….something, whatever. Just hang out, maybe? Apparently, he’s a really bad president because he doesn’t tailor his appearance schedule to her liking.
Somebody please keep this swag hag out of Arizona. We have enough problems, thank you!
She’s probably stopping by the border on her way to visit Margaret Thatcher.
Gad – where’s the Border Patrol when we need them?
(I can see the border from my house. Really.)
Thanks for saying what I was thinking. Just what does she think he could do there that he couldn’t do from somewhere else? What on earth does she think she can accomplish by going there, besides stir up racial tensions? What could she do if she was president? My guess is she has absolutely no idea, no one from the media will ask her, and she will once again look great to the tea party crowd without having to have a single idea of substance.
at least she should be able to find one of those chimichangas or whatever it was that she always sent Levi out for.
I hope $arah left Coach John Wooden (RIP) out of it this time, we’ll see.
Oh, she absolutely will include him, after that over-the-top lying she did about how she and Todd had his words of wisdom slapped on their lockers in high school.
If that were true, there’s no way she could have mistaken the quote from John Wooden Legs as being one from any Bball coach, much less one she supposedly followed and admired.
This time she (or her editors) might bother to get the quote right.
Speaking of which, whereas the last book, as a memoir, could be lax about ‘fact-checking’ and clearing copyright, this one can’t They’ll need to employ probably more than one person to make sure it’s all legal ’cause Sarah certainly does not know a thing about copyright law, although if asked she’d probably say something like “Oh, since I’m only using a small quotation, it’s all Public Domain”. (I’d be surprised if she even knew what Public Domain really means).
had to post this comment from Wonkette”
The cover mockup left out the “30% Off” sticker that will be bunged on this fucker immediately in markets where people with a full set of teeth are not considered to be “putting on airs.
This from Wonkette was too funny”
The cover mockup left out the “30% Off” sticker that will be bunged on this fu**er immediately in markets where people with a full set of teeth are not considered to be “putting on airs.
OMG–I’m totally stealing this comment. Will give credit, ’cause damn, that’s hilarious!
Somebody is headed for the underside of the bus!! Who was responsible for reminding her to put in her flag nose ring for the shoot???
Never mind the bulbous nose (and the chipped tooth) here’s Alec Baldwin giving a lesson on how to do that flag pin thang!
http://www.newyorker.com/reporting/2008/09/08/080908fa_fact_parker
Her upper lip is completely skewed…..nerve damage from plastic surgery I reckon.
Oh, I thought it was just the beginning of a snarl. You know, like dogs do right before they bite.
SNARL ~ Isn’t that what lipstick wearing pit bulls do? Oh yeah and mammy grizzles too.
She has the art of snarling down pat. Do you suppose she’s “revved up snarling” about Levi’s latest baby making news ?
Give the airbrush artist credit, he did straighten out those crossed eyes of hers. Maybe by him tilting her nose to one side, it uncrossed her eyes.
From Wonkette, a sample comment from Team Sarah:
Disney, which owns ABC, allows Joy Behar to insult not only Sarah Palin but Wasilla , Alaska- by comparing Sarah to Snooki.
I want to see Sarah and Snooki in a cat fight! I think Snook’s bumpit tops Sarah’s!
They both like the tanning booth and being famous for no accomplishments. Both like McCain. Both in the taboids.
if the monkey-shoe fits….
Oooh…I thought Joy was insulting Snooki.
Her previous book; on sale for $ 1.49 (hard cover). Although, I’ve seen it at garage sales market down to 10 cents.
http://www.buy.com/prod/going-rogue-an-american-life/q/listingid/65673549/loc/106/212507234.html
Musta sold out (for all of $ 1.49 – WHAT A DEAL!). You can’t buy bird cage lining for less… Now, the listing says “This item is currently unavailable from the Manufacturer…”… And this “Best-selling author” is on the clearance rack less than 9 months after her “hit book?”
I could have sworn I have already seen a picture of her with the flag clutched around her shoulders. Did anyone else see it? How sad that everything that should be of value to her is just a prop. Say some prayers for her, gang. She needs them.
DS kid, check! Flag crap all over me, check! Bad wig, check!
I pray for her often like the rabbi prayed for the czar: God bless her and keep her…far away from me!
Hilarious!
Over at HuffPo it is reporting that the Bristol – Levi wedding may be canceled. Bristol has discovered that Levi has impregnated Bristol’s best friend.
This is truly an unending Jerry Springer marathon.
What a contrast. chelsea clinton vs. any of those in the wasilla hillbilly soap opera
oh dear……
Or The Inquirer…maybe these classy teens are on retainer.
So that’s why I haven’t received my invitation yet!
“Who knows what’s in store for next year?”
I’m thinking a line of makeup. The Sarah Palin Real America line. Sold only outside of big cities like New York and San Francisco.
Mark my words…
Made with petroleum or snake oil base?
Would that be ril petroleum and endangered reptile oil?
“America by Heart.” I guess, as titles go, “America, Written on my Hand,” just wasn’t as catchy.
Touché!
Heh heh…good one.
Has anyone else noticed that she hasn’t said a word on Facebook or Twitter about the C-17 crash here at Elmendorf? Yet she had time to brag on FB about how many supporters she has!
That crash is sad.
Sarah Palin has just endorsed another unknown (Rita Meyer) as governor of Wyoming. Sounds like time for a song.
Light My Fire song Link: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VxMaE8dPfQs&feature=related
SHE’S A LIAR
(sung to the Doors song “Light My Fire”)
You know that her words ring untrue
You know that Sarah P.’s a liar
Now she’s endorsed someone new
A white chick known as Rita Meyer
Who the hell is Rita Meyer?
Who the hell is Rita Meyer?
Now she is in Palin’s choir!
She saw Obama on The View
Jealousy could get no higher
She had to get on Fox News
So she went and endorsed Rita Meyer
Who the hell is Rita Meyer?
Who the hell is Rita Meyer?
Will her profile now get higher?
(insrumental)
She hasn’t got a God damned clue
“Death Panels” proved she is a liar
“Mama Grizzlies” is a ruse
To ignite a hate fueled right-wing fire
Sarah Palin is a liar
Sarah Palin is a liar
Shouting out like the town crier
You know that her words ring untrue
You know that Sarah P.’s a liar
If I was to say to you,
“Girl, why don’t you just retire?”
Sarah Palin is a liar
Sarah Palin is a liar
Fueling hate filled right-wing fire
Fueling hate filled right-wing fire
Fueling hate filled right-wing fire
Fueling hate filled right-wing fire
beautiful Lynn….as per usual.
That is totally awesome!
Bravo! *clap* *clap*
from me, also, too!
What CO almost native said and did…
One of my favorite Doors’ songs, listening to it really really brings back memories. Superb new lyrics, Lynn.. thank you again for your magical musical work!
According to Huffpo:
“In her endorsement, Palin said Meyer has a “unique blend of steel magnolia and mama grizzly.”
Not only is Palin moving on to a whole new level of mixed metaphors, I would not be using a reference to mama grizzlies right now- given one (probably rabid, diseased or seriously disturbed) attacked innocent, sleeping campers in Montana.
“steel magnolia” is a reference to SOUTHERN women, not western women.
I was thinking the same thing, re the mama grizzly
Best ever!
Perfect!
Fabulous.
I noticed her eyebrows are actually in the correct place rather than half way up her forehead. Too bad they had to redo her whole face to make her look like this.
The botox that “raised eyebrows” has worn off, or they were lowered by airbrushing. I thought the same thing.
how did she get her dirt brown eyes to look so blue?
As the old saying goes, “…and toilet paper from the forehead up!”
It sure makes her upgrades obvious now – the eyes and the end of the nose. Color me “don’t give a crap, she’s the ugliest human I’ve ever seen”. Gag on a flag, barf on a scarf. Faker through and through, except for the snide look and lip curl. There are not words to measure the hugeness of my disgust and disdain for this Twit.
No argument from me.
Just another addition to her portfolio that she needs that jet to carry her around in so she can show off more for the pee-parties!! Just another one…
Her obsession with Obama is obvious, right out there for all to see. I’ve figured that it relates to her losing Miss Alaska.
Groan, how many more trees die for her drivel? What’s this 19.95, isn’t every piece of TV junk sold for that too?
i am wondering if we will see, again, that disgusting Rah Rah Rah display the United States Military accorded this racist, seven mountains, apostolic, end of time traitor on her merry journey to destroy the fabric of our national discourse.
Bubbles – you summed Sarah up well!
bubbles, don’t forget that whole Dominionist thing she has going on. And, secessionist also too.
Well said, m’dear, well said.
This bookseller has Going Rogue for sale at $1.49.
http://www.buy.com/prod/going-rogue-an-american-life/q/listingid/65673549/loc/106/212507234.html
Her minions will purchase the new release for the cover. It isn’t like they plan on reading it.
It sure won’t be a bestseller in Alaska.
yes—-jealous!—–she reminds me of the mean kid that keeps poking a stick at an animal until the animal decides to attack. don’t know when she will realize that our smart president doesnt have time for her childish games.
Is it just me or did they they make her look like Jackie.
i think you are right. it does look like they went for Jackie Kennedy look there. the problem is that Jackie was a ‘class act.’ (New Yawk compliment)
Sarah Palin wouldn’t know ‘class’ if it walked up and said hello.
what a waste of space and time these folks are.
She wouldn’t know class if it slapped her on her smug mug!
Jackie was never all about HAIR everywhere.
Jackie Gleason maybe.
LOL
Great commentary in the Daily Dish we all should take to heart:
http://andrewsullivan.theatlantic.com/the_daily_dish/
Thank you for posting the link. The commentary is essential reading. Let’s all pass it along to everyone we know. The constant slamming of Obama by the right based on fear tactics and lies is annoying, but the constant whining from the middle and the left is dangerous for our future. If it continues and places the President in a negative light (even though is accomplishments should be celebrated), and if Palin wins the GOP nomination then the nightmare only begins.
oops…should read “his” accomplishments…
thanks for that OMG…we ought to be doing the happy dance but this kind of fecklessness from the very people who ought to be all the way on his side is disheartening. the man has done more than enough for us to uphold him and to let him know that we understand our part in all this. this is a terrible indictment on the left and shameful.
My favorite part because it often pertains to my musings:
“If you backed Obama and want to see real change continue, now is not the time to give up because it’s not as easy as you thought it would be. Now is the time to oppose the passionate intensity of his opponents with the reasoned conviction that elected him.
Remember: we are the ones we’ve been waiting for. Are we really going to substitute pique for purpose and ennui for hope now? By all means criticize when necessary, as I have. But he’s the best we’ve got, and we are lucky to have him.
To paraphrase Mr Krugman this morning,
Mr. Obama may not be the politician of our dreams, but his enemies are definitely the stuff of our nightmares.”
AMEN!!!!
AMEN!!!!
Double Amen!!!!!!
Totally agree. It’s time the average American realizes that true citizenship is more than just voting at election time. It’s about staying informed about the issues, Contacting your congressional representatives, and seeing them in person when they are in their home districts. Educating respecfully those with differing points of view, when the opportunities present themselves. Getting involved. Look, I’m not perfect – I just came to this realization in this last year.
I work in a highly educated field, and have coworkers I’m close to that don’t really know the issues of the day. Just recently a person I respect very much said “Shirley Sherrod – huh?”. It took a lot of effort not to give a withering look, but inform this person on the issue. This is someone who leans Republican, but was smart enough to know McCain/Palin was a really bad idea.
Haven’t read teh comments yet ($owah makes me nauseous…or is it the little summer bug that DH Happy’s had all week? Low grade fever and feel like I’ve been beaten about the head and shoulders, but Happy’s feeling more better on day 5…)
but this is really important! Just reposted on the open thread, also, too, but PLEASE spread this far and wide!
Laurie posted this yesterday, but it bears repeating:
Sign the petition to keep Fox Fraudcasting from getting Helen Thomas’ front row seat in the White House press room. Sunday is decision day!
http://www.credoaction.com/campaign/fox_or_npr/index.html
Let’s go, mudfamily!
Hope you are feeling a little better.
done….now go rest Crow and get better soon.
I signed, too- also- with a reference to what FOX and the right-wing media did to Shirley Sherrod.
“…and her nose is listing fairly dramatically to one side.” Her nose is just out of joint because she can’t Handle The View, and Our President continues to ignore her…. heh heh heh…
If this new book is anything like ‘her’ last one, it’ll come off the presses without anyone bothering to *first* [ahem] fact check! the thing. Dollars to doughnuts, ‘she’ will present nuggets of wisdom about ‘her’ selected topics and no one will bat an eye…they’ll take what ‘she’ has ‘written’ as authoritative and will further spread the bunk.
In particular, I’m thinking about a gem that’s been making the rounds about the US Flag; I’ll bet ‘she’ takes that gem, plops it into front and center into ‘her’ book, and rhapsodizes on how [the gem] is even further proof that, from the start, the US Flag has been embued with such rill deep, rill patriotic, rill Amurican, meaning…
To be sure, the gem is a real heart-warmer, a real tear-jerker, a real lump-in-the-throater, but it’s utter bunk. Bet’cha it’s included, though — when it comes to fact checking *anything*, ever!, she (and her posse) is just a “John Wooden”-ing fool. And idiot. beth.
–and, no, I’m not going to specifically point out the US Flag gem I’m thinking about…with her fragile ego, I know she (or someone in her circle) reads the ‘flats and I really don’t want to give them the ‘heads up’ to keep an eye out for the gem’s slipping into ‘her’ book. Better she should just blather away as she is wont to do, and let her make an even bigger fool of herself than she already is. If the gem is included in ‘her’ book, as I’m pretty dang sure it will be, it’ll be one more thing that can be pointed to re: her total lack of attentiveness to details…let alone, truth. And, yes, I’m just mean, that way. b.–
Isn’t this just a book of quotations that someone else put together for her to affix her name?
Well, yes but she is going to write her reflections on favorite movies and songs too!!
I bet she uses a Trapper Keeper and shiny metallic inks.
yes
I just realized she’s going to start dragging that poor baby around again.
Nah, he’s too big, but in the fall, school is in do Piper is free.
All she needs now is flag “grills” for her teeth…
hahahahahaha caw Caw CAW CAW CAW!!!
Now that is an idea! I do have photoshop and in the interests of honesty, I must admit to having spent a good hour or so today trying to disfigure the nasty b!tch (Nicole Sandler’s very apt descripton of her). I gave her back her wrinkles, black teeth, two left eyes and flag earrings. Of course, I’m not very good at photoshop, so you can only imagine the mess I produced.
I’m not usually so vindictive, but when I read her latest tweet about PO and the border, my blood literally boiled. Going off to cool down….
Before I do, I just want to say she is a putrid boil on the ar$e of humanity.
Hmmmm….more photoshop ideas!
Irishgirl…feeling a bit better are we?
The left side of her chin seems to be a bit more prominant also, too. Maybe that’s her wart and he had a hard time covering it up.
You guys are the best!! Making me snort-laugh over here!!
I only have one thing to add…..to quote my favourite “Friend” Chandler:
“Could she BE wearing more flags??!”
Aussiegal….is that you?
Yes!
Please shed your evangelical rags!
I want my aussiegal back!
hahahah oh honey. But I’m an evangelical – it’s part of me and honestly, probably the part that gives me wisdom from a healthy fear of God =D
((hugs)) there there – it’s still me!!
Love you too……you mad woman you.
but you shouldn’t “FEAR” God……. and I want Aussie girl back too !! thou wert (wart ?
) Aussie before thou wart ( wert ?) evangelical, wurt thy knot ? ….if Sow-ah can be like Shakesphere, well, then so can I !
I’m so impressed by akm’s keen eye! The nose is the funniest — shown straight-on (or crooked to the left) while the head is tilted to the right — but her pupils are the creepiest.
She looks somewhat more Aryan…
But what gets me is that they call her an “author” (of Going Rogue which we all know Lynn Vincent wrote).
She is, and always will be, a blatant lie. And liar.
FYI: The Doonesbury cartoon in today’s ADN (July 30, 2010, pg B-11), and all the strips of the past week are real keepers.
Turk…Doonesbury does it again. truly funny

Yeah the unblinking eyes are fixed on Russia, DC and Wasilla……. and now, apparently, also too US/Mexico border.
Do those people even read what they write and believe it.Palin was never attacked by the Obama administration.She did her self in with her lies and embellishments,I read some of the comments and those people over their at c4p are just unreal and can’t seem to see that palin is the bully here not anyone else.
She’s gonna steal that thunder from Chelsea Clinton and her wedding yet!
if the woman has two brain cells left she won’t mess with Hilary.
I usually don’t much like Andy Borowitz, but this video clip is worth watching:

The only problem I have with your story AKM is your quote ” kind of like the ‘ author ‘ ”
She is NO author. She didn’t write the last book. She can’t even write her Facebook page.
She can only write with misspelled ‘ refudiated ‘ words on Twitter.
And THAT would make her sound more of a Comedian… rather than an author.
Put some jet fuel in that Private Jet… is there a ‘ Bus Tour ‘ coming up…?
( lock up those Costco tomatoes )
Imagine Candidate Obama….calling InTouch and TMZ to place stories about himself and pose for cover shots in basketball shorts…now….WHY is she considered a viable candidate for the hghest office in the land?
Does the nose list over because of the sneer?
The string is pulled too tight then.
Lipstick on a dunce.

Tears of laughter – thanks, i needed that

She is just mad because she wasn’t asked or is afraid to go on even though E. H. is her friend. Elizabeth actually can admit to being wrong where palin cannot.
Time out…
lol….to bed for me.
Yes, Palin go to the border and then just keep on going. Some Mexican needs an ass to ride.
Nowi like that one!
Hmmm, is that a 16 as a “charm”dangling on that bracelet? No wonder she isn’t “tough enough” to run in 2012, she has to build up her strength and wait for Obama’s exit before she considers running on 2016. This way she can continue to leech from her fans and build her “forever-after” fund for 4 more years .
Her eyes were definitely worked on in this cover shot. Since they don’t both “track” in the same direction, they had to reposition them and change the hi-light. By making the whole shot air-brushed into a blur, this wasn’t supposed to be too noticeable. When you think about it, Sarah can’t resist lying, even in a photo, its just so h-a-r-d.
I don’t think that’s a “’16″ charm hanging there, rylly — it’s another flag. Looks like it might be a whole bracelet of flags…each more patriotic than the other, of course…and with some goodly-sized links holding them together. And with possibly a ‘diamond’-circled watch face between two of the most patriotic of patriotic flags being worn by the most patriotic of super-patriots in the whole USA?
If you enlarge the photo (possible with the zoom in/zoom out tool of IE8) it looks like it might be a watch sitting there on top her hand/wrist. (Just thinking of how long it must’ve taken to get that ‘bracelet’ hitched “just so” for the picture,…) Anyone else see the “Patriotic Palin Bracelet” on the cover of ‘her’ new book, also too being a watch? [[gads - it just hit me: which ever company made it, they'd better start cranking out thousands and thousands of them. Her bots are each going to want at least one. I wonder if $P has a contract for a % of the sales...]] beth.
–AKM, do you happen to have a photo of $P, taken at/from about the same angle as the one above, that we could do a side-by-side comparison with? Oh, I am being ugly, aren’t I? b.–
How much you wanna bet there will be a line of Palin merchandise soon? With this flag bracelet being a MUST HAVE item?
Every other one a genuine rhinestone chip with a cirtiticut of auththenticity from the orange rind and as premium a adorable pink kitten plate with Palinized feetuurs suitable for any reck room redone with salvaged 70′s paneling.
Just read the Palin headline at some gossip site about her criticizing Obama about the View appearance and how he will follow her to the gulf.
Maybe she has gone and hit her head or something.
Anyway, I needed to come back to this site, and get a reality check. Whew! There now. I feel better.
Thank you for being here.
Faith, family, flag, and futility!
Bumper sticker! Print it up.

That’s a good one…!
.. but not necessarily in that order…

I know!!! She really does look ODD in this cover! Surely she’s seen this……and yet was…..OK with it?? Weird…..
You guys, you must read this diary from Kos. Tissues may be needed!
http://www.dailykos.com/storyonly/2010/7/28/888296/-How-my-mother-taught-me-to-be-a-Democrat
“She taught me that if people are hungry, as fellow human beings we should feed them. If they are sick, we should heal them. If they are cold, we should warm them. Assume people don’t get in these situations on purpose, that they are doing the best they can, and need our help. Assume we could find ourselves in their shoes one day. She would say “There by the grace of God, go I.” This wasn’t politics to her, this was basic human decency.”
This makes me miss my dear old mum. She’s so far away but still always near.
I agree that she should go the border…then lets see how quick we can make a deal with the Mexicans to keep and not let back across the border….
Why is one of her eyes suddenly the color of both of mine?
And why, oh, why do they continue to lay out photos on some ping ping table, put index finder on lip, consider, sweep the rejects to the floor and exclaim, “I’ve got it! The one that looks like she’s headlining the “Used French Fry Bag convention!”
“Course, we’ll have to call it somethin’ else, like “Free ‘dem Fries–Lafayette is Umerikun” convention.
And may I point out that neither Daisy Mae nor Ellie Mae would have ever considered acting in such fashion as these Palin girls, nor would any of their half coherent relatives allowed anyone to act that way nor be treated in such a fashion. And, No, I’m not just talking about having s here.
The cover of this book is foreboding as to what the content will be. Airbrushed photo on cover…… borrowed quotes, poems, and other inspirational passages pasted onto the Palin “brand” on the inside. Looks like it will be a faking success!
Folks over at the Christian Science Monitor are reading the Mudflats: They have a short story up about $carah’$ new eye color, and give our Mudflats the credit of seeing the change. I read the story only about 2 hours or so after AKM posted this one, so someone in Boston is reading the mail here.

I’m down in San Jo, visiting my kids, so I cannot right now read all the comments, so if I say stuff that has already been said, sorry.
I saw this cover a couple days ago on Wonkette, and my immediate reaction was : “Somebody’s been fooling with this shot”. I’m not a visual-arts kind of guy, so I’m weak on the details, but it was intuitively obvious that the photo had been staged / modified to produce a softer, more contemplative Quitty.
My own initial impression was that the photo had been arranged (and a lot of stuff can be done by careful posing, without Photoshop) to square up her face. And, obviously, to soften her hairdo. After reading AKM’s remarks, I do think the size and spacing of eyes may have been tweaked — there have been many studies that have shown that larger and wider-spaced eyes are viewed positively by damn near every human being.
Honestly, from a book-selling point of view, this is not that unusual. Most authors choose photos that enhance their self-image. The thing that strikes me most about this cover is that it makes La Twitty look artificial, almost like a cartoon. I’m not sure they got this one right.

Wow. I’m just blown away by the alliteration in the title. A Triple-F. Which could stand for a letter grade or something unprintable.
