Ramen noodles, diapers, shampoo and Sarah Palin

Sarah Palin’s memoir, Going Rogue: An American Life, is set for release November 17th. While publication for the memoir was originally planned for spring of 2010, the publisher, Harper Collins, decided to release early in an effort to clean house on all those stocking stuffers for the holiday season.

You ask, “Is she coming to Pittsburgh?”
 
And the Book Examiner answers, “Kinda.”
 
You ask, “When I go to Sarah Palin’s book signing, can I also buy a year’s supply of ramen noodles?”
 
And the Book Examiner answers, “Yes, but only if you show your member card.”
 
Palin will stop at Sam’s Club in Washington, PA, on November 21st. As of this moment, Going Rogue is ranked #1 in Books on Amazon (sneaky, as Amazon is now discounting the pre-orders to only $9).
 
Going Rouge: An American Disaster, by Nation editors Richard Kim and Betsy Reed, is also set to release on November 17th. In an NPR poll, 63% of participants voted in favor of buying Going Rogue, only proving that people want more from book signings. Toss in a 50-pound bag of dog kibbles and call it sold.

    You just keep on telling yourself that Sarah Palin is beneath your pseudo-intellectual sensibilities, but the Palin is a "trailer-trash idiot" schtick is getting lame...especially since our so-called "genius" President is turning into a monumental flop.

    Sarah Palin may now add "best-selling author" to her impressive list of personal accomplishments. Go, Barracuda!

    I heard rumours that Teleprompter wrote Barry's books. He certainly possesses more intellectual depth than the hochstapler from Chicago. :)

    Getcher best seller here - only $9.00! Discounts for orders of more than 50 - getcher best seller then for $4.99!

    Of course it's a best seller. If the price was any lower, they'd have to call it a best giveaway! (Free with any purchase of Ramen noodles...)

    Holly, thanks for another clever and entertaining article. It's always fun for me to see the tea-bag/Faux News crowd foam at the mouth. :-)
