Well written. Conservatives love to warn against the blame game when liberals refer to Bush's disastrous legacy. And yet Palin's career consists of little but blame, first and foremost blame of those who gave her her big opportunity.

Who cares what this bimbo says? Life is so short and there some many better ways to waste time.

AKM..I left a link on your Open Thread before you set up the post on Mudflats. As always you impress with style wit and intellect!

Great writing as usual. I just read her description of her once close friend, John Bitney. What a nasty piece of work she is. She should be so ashamed of herself.

Muddy:

Glad to see you over here as well !! As usual, great piece.

I'm glad you took a break from your other writing at the Flats because it was obvious that having to go thru palins' pile-o-swill was taking it's toll....it is/has on everyone....

It's interesting to watch this episode in the destruction of a non-candidate unfold. She seems to want to take a shot at everyone and then her statements about Israeli settlements today probably tore the sheets beyond repair. One can certainly hope so.

Do you or Shannyn know if Lynn Vincent has left the country yet??

AKM you nailed it. Well done analysis. Sarah Palin's inside is not electable.

You blog is a typical bunch of left wing garbage and just plain stupidity. You write:

Palin will sexualize herself but we are bad if we notice.
--> And how did she sexualize herself? Because she is attractive? To be taken seriously must a woman look like Hilary Clinton or Madie Allbright? That's a very progressive position for you to take.

She puts her children in front of the camera, but we are bad if we talk about them.
--> Again idiot, how did she put her children in front of the camera? Did they do press conferences, hit the campaign trail and give speeches? Did they do anything that Obama's kids didn't do? So we should talk about them as well right? Speculate on who their 'real' parents are? If they are sexually active? Are they pregnant? I guess we should talk about them getting knocked up like Lettermen did about Sarah's 14 yr old, wouldn't that be classy?

She wants to be in the media spotlight, but she criticizes the media.
--> The classic statement of idiocy. She ran for and held political office. Before the national media discovered her and attacked her, she was the most popular governor in the country. The media attacked her from day one, instantly speculating whether she was the mother of her child, digging for dirt and spreading lies and rumors. Of course she would criticize the media, they deserve it. They behave like jackals, out to destroy anyone they view as an enemy of their liberal agenda. You talk about the photo of Palin in Newsweek. They searched for the most degrading picture they could find. How many pictures of Obama smoking have you seen? Damn few if any, yet he is a heavy smoker. But just as FDR was never seen in a wheelchair, Obama is never seen smoking. Palin is shown in super close up, unretouched, and Obama is shown with key lighting and perfect retouching. The MSM deserves the scorn she has shown them for being no less biased and just as ignorant as you.

You are correct in saying that this book is a reactionary book based on any real or imagined slight that has occurred during her political career.
As Dan Fagan pointed out today, it says more about a personality than anything else and not a very nice one at that.
She wants to play a part in our countries politics, so where are her solutions? A talking point put out by Bill Kristol, Beck, Limbaugh, those are not solutions, they are just garbage to score a point. Nothing so far either in the book or interviews portrays Ms. Palin as a real political player. It's more the famous because I'm famous thing, and those are a dime a dozen.

If "Victim Palin" wonders why so many people think she is petty, vindictive, and small-spirited, she need look no further than her own book. Consider just one of the many examples of the "subliminal text" in her book:

Palin: “Halcro was a wealthy, effete young chap who had taken over his father’s local Avis Rent A Car, and he starred in his own car commercials. He would go on to host a short-lived local radio show while blogging throughout the day, all of which were major steps up from a previous job as our limo driver at Todd’s cousin’s wedding.”
——————————————————————-

Palin exposes her OWN character traits in the subliminal text, all while ostensibly exposing fellow Alaskan, Halcro:

1) “wealthy, effete young chap”…..portrays Halcro as the "snob" (but she appears judgmental, resentful, sneering)

2) “all were major steps up from a previous job as our limo driver”…..portrays Halcro as social climber of low status serving her family (but now SHE appears the "snob," and, yes, sneering again)

Frankly, I'm surprised that any ghostwriter or editor wouldn't have pointed out this subliminal text to Palin. The purpose of an autobiography should at least be somewhat flattering to the author.

Excellent post, Jeanne. You touch on one of the many Achilles heels which Palin has: she's never learned to control the underlying message appropriately about herself.

Sarah is the center of her universe, well so are we all, but most of us have some sense of our limitations. Sarah is totally lacking in the kind of introspection.
She tries to sell herself with sexual come hitherness but preaches purity.
She supports abstinence but does not teach it to her own children.
She wants smaller government, but she is a control freak who would most probably, like Bush and Reagan make government more powerful and intrusive.
She wants Americans to worship God, but only her version if God.
She wants political power, but hates political correctness.
She loves American but hates that its freedom allows others to disagree with her.
She preaches God but disrespects God’s creations.
Like many Christians she translates God’s gift of “dominion” over the earth to mean not stewardship and care but utter destruction, use and abuse.
She wants attention, but not the kind that the press gives her.
She wanted the power of the Governorship, but not the responsibility.
She wants a book but doesn’t write it.

And on and on and on.

She is a total failure in every aspect of her career, and spectacularly so.

The best thing about you HATERS is you never see what is going on around you.
Like the 640,329 Obama jobs on the recovery.gov site which tell you how great we are doing in America. But if you really want to know see Biggoverment.com and find out that millions are going to fictional districts in States. Millions and Millions down the Obama rathole.
Just keep that hate going, you will be easyer to control at the funnyfarm.

Sarah is a phony
Sarah is a fake
Sarah is the evil spawn
Of John McCain's mistake

Sarah is the fountainhead
Sarah is the source
Sarah is the wake-up call
To a country gone off course

And if Sarah is looking for a great campaign song for 2012, I recommend http://www.youtube.com/rantcaster

I wonder what she is going to do when she come to washington state for thanksgiving,, I hope when she does come out here, she looks and see how many jobs were created by Obama's stimulus package here.I beleive it is in the neighbor hood of 4K or more,, which also translates into 12K,

I suggest, since she is a consummate bushie, that she be nicknamed Miss Katrina Rogue.
