[from an idea by NH]
And this is special: HarperCollins is giving her another chance to con it and the 23 Percenters out of more money:
“The book will include selections from classic and contemporary readings that have inspired her, as well as portraits of some of the extraordinary men and women she admires and who embody her love of country, faith, and family,” according to a release. “She will also draw from her personal experience to amplify these timely (and timeless) themes.”
So now she can add "plagiarizing" to her list of accomplishments.
I luv love LOVE that picture.

Plagarize? Hardly.
Please. We call it "research."

I wonder if this means that Harper Collins is trying to get their money back for the losses on the mass tree-genocide that was the first book.
Reality TV show in the works, Oscar bling, a neverending stream of mawkish books. Now, all she needs to do is get Paris Hilton on the born-again bandwagon and get an endorsement from Bono and she could be President. In a way, it would be a fitting end to the American experiment....

The fact remains...She is smarter than every one of her supporters. Think about that for a few minutes, my friends.

note to self: don't spend money on any HarperCollins publication. Ever.

She is a child of the eighties and the "mix tape" generation. She's making a "mix-book". She's so creative! I'm so jealous.

Look for it in the True Crime section of your nearest book store.

Whoaa, hold up there WT. Don't bee freakin'-out bugologists like me. Doing such a disservice to the little critters we so love, puttin' on the personna of The One we so love to Hate. Pesticides are fine for The Alaskin Pest Infestation. It's developing resistance. Ahhaaha

do have to admit, tho, the photo is brilliantly creepy!
she's such a creep.
missed info about the Oscar reference, what's up?
Posted by: sagemarm | March 05, 2010 at 02:22 AM
sagemarm, down a couple of posts, Ms. Palin and her troupe of grifters hit the Oscar's "gifting suites" like a swarm of locusts...

“The book will include selections from classic and contemporary readings that have inspired her ...
===============================
... all of which by the most astonishing coincidence can be reprinted free since they're in the public domain."
Bets?
Also noticed that it doesn't claim she's actually read anything. Selections have inspired her. "Yeah, we're selecting stuff, calling it 'Readings,' and you'll get paid a buttload for the book." "Oh, that's inspiring!"
I bet Yellow Kid Weil and Canada Bill Jones were a lot more interesting. Probably would have made better presidents too...

Oh Watertiger, that photo-art is a thing of beauty. Terrible beauty, but beauty nonetheless. Brava!
Thanks, but no thanks...but then again, I'm entitled and so are twenty of my closest family members.

I can't stop laughing... the only sad part about this shot> Trig is really being held in this manner and his facial expression shows it!
