Sarah Palin is NEVER going to become President of the United States. That is clear. Aside from her fan base which can only be described as delusional and idiotic, Palin has the support of no on else. There is a long list of conservatives who see her as the shallow, feeble-minded buffoon she has shown herself to be. Her inability to see herself as such and her determination to continue on as if there is any substance to her empty and silly thoughts, makes her a target. She begs to be mocked by carrying on her imaginary role of politician with a brain…and mocked she will be.
Yeah, yeah, we heard all about the Sarah Palin’s Book Going Rogue – An American Life to be launched on Nov 17th. They expect to move 1.5 million copies, and pre-orders have been brisk.
We couldn’t let that stand without a fight. There are two sides to every story, but let’s get something clear here – Sarah didn’t write this book either.
So we created an alternative: Going Rouge – The Sarah Palin Rogue Coloring and Activity Book, now available for pre-order, with a launch date of November 17th, just like that other shameless rot. But our book is chock full of mazes (like “Help Sarah find her way to the White House”), puzzles, word games, and brilliant illustrations to color or chuckle over as we mercilessly lampoon and parody everything Palin in 48 pages of hilarity.

I detest Sarah Palin as much as anyone who doesn’t know her personally may. But I don’t agree she has no chance to get in the White House. I’ve lived through 4 elections (Two of Dubya and two of Reagan)of candidates that, to the best of my understanding, had ZERO credentials. Obama I love, but he was a long-shot. And we also put in people to the VP spot (Like Cheney, um, constitutionally barred) that might very well have become president after.
HOWEVER, I’m not happy to see any woman politician mocked by how she would or wouldn’t look in a bikini. As long as her curves are the issue, we all lose.
I think Sarah Palin cynically manipulates the idea of “motherhood” for personal and political gain, and I think she is, personally, a terrible parent.
I was fairly uninterested in the campaigns before she was nominated. After I looked into Sarah Palin, the idea that ANYONE would let this woman near power or propose her as a candidate to appeal to “women” got me right into the streets.
She’s out of her league. She belongs on a soap opera. I detest what she did at the turkey ranch last year. That is a sick-minded person to stand there like that with the blood and feathers flying.
Wonder if she and SICK DICK Cheney are planning to run in 2012…he needs to go home and shut up too.
I would love to see a woman as President in my lifetime, but not her. Definitely, not her. If the worst thing they can throw at Obama is that he likes MUSTARD , then he’s got an 8 year run, not 4. Get used to him Repubs because after Obama, perhaps Alan Grayson will run. Palin will probably end up of FOX snooze after Glenn Beck gets sacked.

Why would a “Sarah Palin” invoke “detest”?
The woman acts as though stupidity were a virtue.
Mock away!
