New Palin book gets title, release date "America by Heart"
Source: MSNBC/AP

Sarah Palin's new book has a title, "America By Heart: Reflections on Family, Faith and Flag," and a release date, Nov. 23, publisher HarperCollins announced Tuesday.

The Alaska ex-governor and former GOP vice presidential candidate, whose memoir "Going Rogue" has sold more than 2 million copies, has been working on a tribute to American values.

It will include "selections from classic and contemporary readings that have moved her," according to HarperCollins, along with "the nation's founding documents to great speeches, sermons, letters, literature and poetry, biography, and even some of her favorite songs and movies."

-----

"The book will also include portraits of some of the extraordinary men and women she admires and who embody her deep love of country, her strong rootedness in faith, and her profound love and appreciation of family," the statement from HarperCollins reads.

3. American values - what, slaugtering wolves from airplanes? Or...
Inciting people to violence against other Americans?

Treating special needs children like sacks of potatoes?

Being as stupid and uninformed as possible?

Lying?

6. I wonder who's ghosting it.
Also, I'm wondering just how much plagiarizing she'll be doing.

Oh geez, how much of teh stupid can this nation take?

I'm still reeling from her last literary atrocity.

How many books does she think she needs to not write?

22. Insulation, not bird cage liners
I think they should just cut out the middleman and send the paper they were GOING to use to print the book with Palin's name on it directly to the insulation factory.

9. A second book? Wow, she's actually written two more books than she's read.
Palin is the only person I've heard of who has written more books than they've read.

13. Another typical Republican pile of runny, watery, smelly BullSHIT...
"AMERICA BY HEART" a collection of things that SARAH PALIN finds inspiring and patriotic and uniquely American.

Subtitled: Bend over all you fucking Christian Tea-bagging rubes and buy some more of my stupid, vapid, clichéd, non-nonsensical patriotic, bible bullshit.
Sarah gets rich and you get dumber.

Sarah Palin really needs to just fucking go away, and John McCain deserves a HUGE fuck you for introducing this stupid twit to a wider audience.

15. Profound love and appreciation of family indeed, but only from a great distance.
When were you with your family this past year Sarah?

17. No wonder she stands by McPain so valiantly!
She'd still be the lowly governor of Alaska - gleaning that position for all the personal gain she could - if McPOW hadn't vaulted her dumb ass into the spotlight. :puke:

18. she's getting to be like the Thomas Kinkade of the literary world
all formulaic, cliched, mass produced by hacks, reflecting an imaginary world without icky things, marketed to rubes, then remarketed as a "collector's item."

23. Soooo....
She's putting other people's stuff in her book, and calling it hers? And SHE'S getting paid for it? Her zombie followers will shell out the money and sing her praised for collecting other people's work and calling it her own. :shrug:
