Carrie Prejean Book Deal: "Still Standing" Due Out In November

[meegbear]

Disgraced Miss California USA Carrie Prejean has landed a book deal with Regnery Publishing, the publisher announced Monday.

The book, titled "Still Standing," will tell Prejean's side of the controversy surrounding her reign as Miss California USA and her answer at the Miss USA pageant against gay marriage.

Specifically, the announcement claims, Prejean will answer such questions as:

* what happened behind the scenes at the pageant
* why she answered the Perez Hilton question as she did
* what really led to her losing the Miss California crown
* and how she has been forced to battle the left's double-standard on free speech and the bias against conservatives - particularly conservative women - who stand up for their beliefs

Prejean lost her crown last month for skipping scheduled appearances, though she has claimed that her firing was a setup.

1. January is generous. nt

[Brother Buzz]

31. January is a good expiration target date...

If the editor loads the book up with color glossy photographs they should expect modest holiday sales. The base loves to 'look', you know what I mean, Vern?

[hobbit709]

2. Looks like good firestarter material at 10 cents in the bargain bin.

[Botany]

3. W/ a forward by Miss Teen South Carolina?

You go get 'em Carrie

[lunatica]

4. Another book for the Christian literature genre no doubt

To be put next to the Left Behind books

[SpiralHawk]

5. "Still whining." - Best selling Republicon Homelander title

[secondwind]

7. and to think they paid for her "breast enhancement"!!!

22. Hahahahahaha!!!! That's just funny! nt

[HughBeaumont]

8. Regnery . .. the Vanity Press of the Racist and Homophobic right. Classic.

Their catalog is a rogues gallery of wackjob birthers, corporate-owned "PhDs" peddling discredited pro-Big Biznezz and pro-rich whitey rhetoric, global warming deniers, Elders of Zion fans, Reaganite spokespersons, Manifest Destinists and white supremacists who are ashamed to admit they're white supremacists.

So it's really no surprise that a hatemonger like Carrie Prejean jumps on this Anita Bryant Klan-train for fun and profit.

[Vickers]

9. "Still Standing Straight Out"

:P

[corpseratemedia]

10. I need to work on my confabulating fundy whoreness

maybe I can get a book deal, or at least an anchor spot

[MADem]

11. Why would a moron who doesn't like gay people name her book after a song

written by a gay musician-composer? Does she not realize that her title is an anthem of sorts, written by Elton John? And it ain't an anthem honoring morons who don't like gay people, either!

[RaleighNCDUer]

20. Because they don't understand the concept of 'context'.

i.e., 'Born in the USA'.

[HopeHoops]

12. "The EASY READER picture book for dumbass Republicans"

What the fuck could they possibly fill a book with? A typical marshmallow would provide more material for a biography than she could!

[Lerkfish]

13. don't be sillly, they'll fill the book with swinsuit photos.

:)

[HopeHoops]

14. A marshmallow in a swimsuit?

I guess everyone has their fetishes.

[mikeytherat]

21. It takes all types:

[maxrandb]

15. Wouldn't "Still Kneeling" be a better title? n/t

[joeybee12]

34. "Still Lying Down on the Bed with my Legs Over My Head"? n/t

[rurallib]

16. "Still Standing" (even though the boob job makes it hard)

[saltpoint]

17. I simply can NOT wait for the publication of this book.

She's a genius. She's the minion of progressives coast to coast. I want an advance copy. I want it signed. I want it hand-delivered by Sean Hannity.

[Johonny]

18. What's the date she first reads her own book?

I say never. But it will be nice to know the ghost writers answers to those questions.

[Ilsa]

19. Coming to a $1 book bin near you...

[ProudToBeBlueInRhody]

23. I'm sure it will be written in crayon

With lots of pretty pictures.

[Bill McBlueState]

24. this will probably be one of those books

that's 80 pages long, double spaced, and in a 16-point font. But it will still cost $16.99.

[maxrandb]

28. Well, the full color, triple fold out center photo

can be expensive!

[BlooInBloo]

25. Cool. Who wrote it?

[qazplm]

26. She's gotta be at least at 17 minutes by now

isn't it time to move on to the next Joe/Jane the Plumber?

[Milspec]

27. My sister was a model so I was able to meet a lot of them

With few exceptions the were the most self absorbed, uneducated, and just plan stupid group of people I have ever met

[Canuckistanian]

29. No kidding

When I was a photographer, I noticed that their priorities in life were:

1. Their hair
2. Their clothes
3. Their make-up
4. Their bodies/diet issues
5, The party they were going to that night

I gave up trying to have intelligent conversations with them.

[johnaries]

30. Carrie who? Oh, yeah. That airhead. nt

[Hepburn]

32. Carrie ~~ Hint: Take a HS level US govt class, OK?

Free speech...in regard to a PRIVATELY OWNED beauty contest? If you think that applies, then the bleach and man-tan has truly cooked what little brain you had to begin with.

Unreal...:eyes:

Ms. USA Pageant??? And she is clueless on the First Amendment. How fucking ironic.

[Javaman]

33. meh, yet another gop doorstop. nt

[bridgit]

35. Eh, only in America could a little dunder-head end up with more money than Perez Hilton

[HamdenRice]

36. Funny, I thought this was about Sister Helen Prejean, like "Standing" after "Walking" nt

[Lance_Boyle]

37. Follow-up "On My Back for Jesus" arrives in December. n/t

[Initech]
