Apparently the fact that Going Rogue is #1 on the list at Amazon has completely unhinged some people.
The Amazon discussion boards freature barking moonbats desperate to go after Palin and somehow prevent people from buying the book.
Some Gems:
She was bad governor, bad mother, bad wife, bad grandmother, and bad vice-president candidate, what can be so interesting about her???? How to be bad..
And we have the traditional liberal civility:
Wow anyone who buys this book is just as retarded as her son!
There is an echo of Chuckie here too:
Sarah Palin’s Ghostwriter Pals Around With Racists and Wackos
and my favorite:
Yeah but is anybody actually going to READ it?
If you are unfamiliar with this particular scam, let me clue you in.
You see what the Conservatives do is pre-order a whole ton of books by one of their minions like Glenn Beck, or Bill O’Reilly, or Rush Limbaugh, Or Sean Hannity, or Sarah Palin, and then either change their mind, leaving the book store with a whole bunch of books that NOBODY wants, or they have their money laundering book outlet, the Conservative Book Club, sell the books later at a loss.
A lot of the stuff is posted by a “Bella Luna” “Luna” appears to be short for “Lunatic”. She has a blog I won’t include the link and add to her meager hit totals.
However in the meat of the discussions you have many more people answering in sanity to wit:
You obviously think Sarah is some horrible person, but it’s clear to me that you haven’t taken time to consider if she’s really all that bad, or merely has different opinions. I think you would get a lot out of buying this book and finding out for yourself if you can think for yourself.
Former Bookseller:
The proof of whether anyone really buys her book is how many you find in remainder 6 months after publication. That is the only true measure of a book’s success. How many printed and how many remaindered. Oh, and don’t forget to check your public library and see how many of the books they bought and how long it takes to check one out. That’s another good measuring device. Otherwise shut your piehole and stop proving to everyone that your photo is used as the illustration of the word “fool” in the Merriam-Webster dictionary.
and my favorite:
She is stupid, she is irrelevent, she is a quitter”…..Yet there she is and one little twitter post from her turned the entire White House program upside down.
The real question is this: Are we dealing with a group of people who do this because they haven’t got a life or are they being paid to do this or both?
All I know is this: I went to one Palin rally in NH. The line to get in was all the way down the hill and the street. It was so long that hundreds ended up in an overflow area outside the school in a field. The people in line were well behaved and seemed to know their issues, they were very pleasant to talk to.
On the other side guys in Union shirts were on cells trying to gin up people to counter them. It was so bad that the they had kids out of school (led by an adult) to yell at us. It was amazing to see a teenage girl shout angrily at Palin for being a bad mother because her 17 year old daughter was pregnant.
When I see the stuff on the discussion boards I think of that girl and shake my head.
If these people truly believed it they would ignore her and let us walk of the cliff. They are scared REALLY scared.
Update: Apparently they do #2
Update 2: The American Thinker knows what to say:
Now correct me if I am wrong, but didn’t I hear the Jurassic media bury the career of Sarah Palin just last July? And weren’t they joined in this mockery by the so-called conservative elites like David Brooks and Karl Rove and Joe Scarborough and so on?
Wasn’t Mo Dowd just delirious in fact that the wicked witch (of her world) was dead?
You betcha.
Well, just who is looking out of touch and foolish now? Hint: It isn’t the Killa from Wasilla. And yes, I think that is her Brinks Truck in fact. One of them anyway.



The left does go on the attack way too much, even though they won. You should see the names I was called last night by someone else’s friend on Face Book because I said Reagan was an awesome dude, commenting on an old video of a speech he gave. That’s it, nothing else, just awesome dude. His head exploded. Of course I was accused of being an R word.
The left doesn’t understand that paranoia isn’t attractive.
