Now that the LSM has gotten word of it, I can now tell you about Madame's newest book: America by Heart: Reflections on Family, Faith and Flag that will be released in November! Yep, Madame drops the "F" bomb three times in the title, not the "F' bomb of the VP Hair Plugs variety, but family, faith, and flag?! For the softy southpaws, those are almost curse words! Madame will be compiling writings from the Founders, speeches, sermons, songs, etc. Good stuff! Madame doesn't know it, but I'm writing a special inscription for Katie "the Perky One" Couric:
Dear Perky One,

Remember when you were condescending and dumb and asked me what did I read, and I answered, "all of them"? Read this book. This is what I meant!

Best regards,
Sarah



Do you think Madame will go for that?

Well, it looks like I'm going to be hit with a whole slew of word documents soon! Madame is ready to write her next book, and it will, "include selections from classic and contemporary readings that have inspired her, as well as portraits of some of the extraordinary men and women she admires and who embody her love of country, faith, and family". Awesomeness. I better do some cleaning up so the hard drive has room. All you fellow rogues, you'd better get the "Hooked on Phonics" out again. Remember, as Sarah fans, you can't even read.

Oh, and I must update you. Madame indeed did win the 2012 Nielsen caucus last night. Poor Mittens!

With Halloween just around the corner, it seems that the media have been all about ghosts when it comes to Madame's book. Well, perhaps, I should say ghostwriters, not ghosts. I'm hoping that Madame's journalism degree will rub off of me a bit as I write this post. I've decided to do a little bit of investigative journalism.

Stories regarding Madame's book tend to use the word "ghostwriter" to describe Madame's book. In fact, this yahoo news story has this to say:
Ghostwriter, collaborator, co-author. These sidekick writers go by many names, but they all serve the same purpose: to get the book finished. A true ghostwriter gets no public credit for the work but in reality there are varying degrees of involvement by these pinch writers.
Well, Madame has been upfront about her use of Lynn Vincent as a collaborator. Therefore, Lynn is a not a ghostwriter, but a collaborator! Being upfront is being transparent! Fancy that, Mr. President!

The Softy Southpaws and the BOM have been all up in arms about how quickly Madame finished her book! Let me fill you in a few things. Woohoo, I get to use bullet points!
  • Madame has kept a journal for quite a while which contributes to the book:
    Palin said she's kept journals throughout much of her life that she will use for the book.

    "My journaling really ramped up when I found out that I was pregnant with Trig and then Track was going off to war and I found out Bristol was pregnant," Palin said. "When we had those episodes in our lives come to the surface, it was very therapeutic for me."

  • Madame works hard and spent quite a bit of time in August working on her book.
    "Sarah's been out of town for almost a month now," Heath told the Spokane Spokesman-Review. "I don't know exactly where she is, but she's writing her book. She e-mails me quite frequently. She asks, 'Oh, what happened on June 13, 1978?' This is material for her book."

    Aww, Mr. Heath gave a shout out to me! :)
  • The publisher of the book and the lawyer who worked out the details of the book stated that this book was truly going to be Madame's words.
    "She's obviously going to be engaged in the whole process of the book," said Burnham, adding that the role of the collaborator would depend on who was chosen.

    "Every word of the book will be her words," Barnett said.

So, for all of the skeptics out there, do a little investigative journalism or just do some "googling" like I did. The answers are there. I'm the LOTUS, so I should know.

I don't know if Madame intended to help provide a jolt to various sectors of the economy by writing a book, but it appears that she just might do that. I wrote about Madame's book a few times last week, and her book still maintains the top spots on Amazon and Barnes and Noble, even though it isn't being released until November 17th. 1.5 million books will be printed for the first edition. That is a heck of a lot of paper, ink, and other necessary book-binding materials! I suspect that this will provide a needed stimulus to those industries, not to mention the both the brick and mortar and online book industries!

There is another industry that has seen its stocks rise in recent months, likely due to Madame's Facebook postings and the fits that she is giving to the Great Opologizer. Sadly, as an inanimate object, I cannot own stock. If I could though, I would buy stock in Kimberly-Clark, the makers of Depends. In the past six months, the returns for this stock have increased by more than 20%. This makes sense, as Madame has a tendency to make the President get all "wee-weed up" and make him so scared that he "you know whats" his pants.

Don't tell Madame, but I'm going rogue myself. I'm planning on preemptively starting on online business as part of my own stimulus plan. I'm going to sell 2012 presidential campaign memorabilia and 2013 inauguration keepsakes. My first item will be a "I went rogue, and all I got was this move to the White House" mouse pad. What do you think?

The # 1 Cover (H/T The Palination)

I finally get to share with you all another peek at the bestseller. The cover of Madame's book was officially released today. In fact, we just made the cover Madame's new Facebook picture. Hmm, there's a nice blend of red,white, and blue, and she is wearing a running jacket. I wonder if that means anything.

The book has become a bestseller overnight! People are quite impressed by how many copies it is selling. It is #1 at both Amazon and Barnes and Noble. The success of the book sales are causing the MSM or the BOM to use words like "unbelievable" and "unprecedented" to describe its release. Call me cynical, but in light of the amazing success of the book more than six weeks before its release, I'm surprised the headline isn't "Sarah Palin kills trees for her own profit". To be sure, Madame is quite grateful for the response. I think that Senator McAnonyous is a little bit nervous about the book, though he might just be upset that he didn't think of the phrase "going rogue", instead of being stuck on "maverick".

With the success of the book in just the first week of the announcement of its release, I'm wondering if there will be any subsequent editions. I promised TOTUS I would get him a version that would be teleprompter-friendly so that the President could read it. I wonder if there will be a picture book so that Vice President Hair Plugs can read it, too. I also hope that they release a Cliff's notes version so that the Softy Southpaws can understand when Madame "lays out her vision for an America that is strong, independent, and free". Softy Southpaws seem to think America needs to be weak, dependent, and bound. I think that Anderson Cooper will need his own special Cliff's Notes version for when Madame talks about sports.

I'd like to close this post by wishing you what should be a happy Energy Independence Day. A year ago today, Congress lifted the ban on offshore drilling, but nothing really has been done. I wish that Congress would understand the need for energy independence. I would give my space bar to be energy independent, but I'm dependent upon that darn AC adapter. It is interesting that the President thinks that we are a good enough country to host the Olympics, but not to drill offshore for oil. However, Brazil is good enough in the President's eyes to drill offshore. Hmm, if he thinks that, maybe they can have the Olympics too.

It has been so hard storing all of this information and excitement on my hard drive without uploading it so that you all can read it. However, I now can share just a bit about Madame's book. Going Rogue: An American Life is the title of her 400 page book! You see, Madame made her book just the right length. You could read her book three times (which you will want to do), or you can read the 1200 page cap-and-tax bill. Hmm, I wonder which would be more constructive, interesting, and enlightening?

We spent some time in San Diego working on the book late this summer with Lynn Vincent, Madame's collaborator, who knows a thing or two about helping to write a best seller.I have a feeling that Madame's book will be a free enterprise based, unintentional bailout for the paper, book binding, ink, and bookstore industries. I hope that Amazon doesn't crash because so many people are buying her book!

I don't know if I should share this, but TOTUS told me that the Great Opologizer is planning to write his third book with a similar title to Madame's book: Going Rouge: A Marxist Presidency. I was able to chat with him today while the campaigner-in-chief was trying to push for the Olympics to be in Chicago in 2016. Hey, I don't care if the Olympics are in Chicago or not, but I have a feeling that President Obama will win the silver medal in 2012.

I wish I could give you all just an excerpt of the book, but Madame has the draft password-locked on my hard drive, so I can't access it. Let me tell you though; I read it while she was working on it. It is fantastic! Is it a best seller? You betcha!
