Palin-haters Set to Release Hit-Piece "Going Rouge" On Same Day as Sarah's Book Launch
Posted by Jim Hoft on Wednesday, October 21, 2009, 12:11 PM
A new low for the rabid left…
They just can’t hate this Christian conservative woman enough.
A far left startup publisher is going to release “Going Rouge,” a collection of Palin hit-pieces, on November 17th, the same day as Sarah Palin’s best seller “Going Rogue” hits the book stores.
Shelf Life reported, via Free Republic:
We know that former Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin can hunt, and even field-dress a moose, but how will she take to poachers on her book sales? Start-up publisher OR Books has announced plans to publish Going Rouge: Sarah Palin An American Nightmare, a collection of essays about the maverick Republican with a title — and cover design — remarkably similar to Palin’s upcoming memoir. What’s more, OR’s paperback tome will be released on Nov. 17, the same day that Palin’s own Going Rogue: An American Life hits shelves — and one day after Palin’s just-announced, first-ever appearance on Oprah Winfrey’s show. (A shout-out to Ron Hogan at GalleyCat for the tip.)

Uh… is it just me, or does she kind of look a little better on the Liberal hit piece?
Come on guys! At least give her glowing red demon eyes or something.
Magnum commented:
Isn’t there copyright law against items that are “confusingly similar”?
cwazylikeafox commented:
This has to be stopped.
let everyone know what’s going on with this. IF this attack job is released and find’s it’s way into B&N people need to know the difference.
ambisinistral commented:
The cover is clearly intended to deceive the public into buying it rather than Palin’s book. I would imagine Palin’s publisher will have an injunction slapped against OR Publishing preventing them from releasing it with that cover in short order.
Far too cute and ham-handed a hit job in this day and age. For example, it will be interesting to see who funded the start up.
Rob Crawford commented:
Clear attempt to confuse consumers.
*shrug*
Do they think they’ll really accomplish anything with this? If someone wants Palin’s book and gets their pack-o-slander instead, do they think they’ll change any minds?
Hypogean commented:
Palin will forever be a target. The people who hate her have what’s called a “conditioned response” to her. It’s not based on rationality.
The best thing we can do is make her book a huge success and not let the human equivalent of Pavlov’s experimental dogs get us down.
Pavlov’s dogs, by the way, drooled when they heard a bell ring. That’s how I picture the average Palin hater: A drooling dog reacting entirely unconsciously to stimuli provided by those with an agenda.
Nahanni commented:
Isn’t there copyright law against items that are “confusingly similar”?
Yes, there are.
This is just another example of just how frightened Obamao, the Corruptocrats and their minions are. In the fantasyland that is their “reality-based community” they think that all the crap they are pulling from tossing The Race Card(TM) to calling all of those who are not worshiping them “un American” to Nazi Nancy calling us “Nazi’s” to locking out the Republicans from committee meetings, etc, Ad nauseam.
All it is serving to do is to create an inferno that will consume them and every single institution, policy and agenda they have worked so hard to put into place.
They are playing Russian roulette with a Colt 1911.
ambisinistral commented:
“Do they think they’ll really accomplish anything with this?”
Crawford,
Yea… they want to be able to scream censorship in Palin’s direction when their book gets blocked from being published with that cover.
Beat ‘em to the punch — find out who funded that start-up and drag them through the mud over such a cheesy dirty trick.
KR commented:
If book stores choose to sell this “smear” of a book, they will only be inviting many returns from customers who bought the wrong book. It is deceptive and it will come back to bite them.
GregZ commented:
I guess I’ll have to buy a copy or two of Sarah’s book.
I wasn’t but now I will…God bless Sarah.
Scott commented:
I don’t understand how someone who has never governed or legislated beyond the boundaries of Alaska can generate so much blind hatred.
It’s so irrational. And they call US the wingnuts.
KR commented:
I wonder if Sarah will mention the fraud book on Oprah the day before?
Just A Grunt commented:
It is important to point out that the impostor is a PAPERBACK book.
It will be interesting to see how the bookstores that carry both books will display them.

From the OR Books website:
To avoid the waste of unsold stock and returns, we produce our books only when they are wanted, either through print-on-demand or as platform-agnostic e-books.
This system allows a rapid publishing turnaround so relevant books can intervene quickly in issues of the day.
Most importantly, we sell direct to you, the customer, shipping promptly when a book is released and/or your order is received.
Anon commented:

KR commented:
Scott,
It all comes down to power. Who has it, We The People or the ones in DC now.
It is Liberty vs Tyranny. We know which side Sarah is on.
Darwin Akbar commented:
IMHO, Sarah Palin’s publisher has a legitimate claim for both trademark infringement and unfair competition, and the right to an injunction. Probably not copyright infringement, though.
kittymyers commented:
People who support Sarah Palin can read the titles and know which book is which. Besides, most of her supporters have already pre-ordered the book.
This is from the publisher’s website:
“OR Books is a new type of publishing company. It embraces progressive change in politics, culture and the way we do business.
Our list is highly selective: we publish just one or two books a month, combining established authors with new discoveries.
Our editorial standards are fastidious; our design clear and elegant.”
…
ivehadit commented:
Best NOT to publicize this on Oprah. Why give them free PR?
BUT, we can tell our friends about this. Afterall they are the ones who will be buying the book.
And frankly, this will again show the world how small, petty and dark-spirited the Left truly is, imho. Who wants to live in their world? NOT ME.
Magnum commented:
Ok, so you can only buy the crappy hit-piece directly from the publisher.
What a joke these people are.
Their president is socializing the country and they are worried about Sarah Palin. Sounds about right.
Lily Ledbetter commented:

If that is the case, bookstores won’t carry their books. Unsold books are returned, minus the cover, for credit.

Where in the world did anyone get the idea that anyone “hates” Sarah Palin? She’s a stitch–hysterically funny. Yet I often felt sorry for her during the campaign. She should have never been put in that position. I had always thought McCain had more integrity, but his true colors were on display. Need I point out that “the Left” would love to have her running again. As would every comedy writer in the country.
Rob Crawford commented:

You are correct. McCain’s sorry ass should have been shown the curb early in the process.

Maybe they could sell the fake book in Gay bars or at Abortion clinics, or maybe Porn/Drug paraphernalia shops.
It would be a nice STOCKING stuffer for Hillary Rodham, but alas, her STOCKINGS are stuffed already.
MainStreet commented:
It appears that the Rouge will not get in many bookstores and if it does, they will probably be removed by court order.
I wasn’t sold on Palin, but the more I see the Left panic, the more I see to like. She has them scared to death that she will awaken the silent majority. She can do it and they know it.
MainStreet commented:
Maybe a ticket of Sarah and Joe the Plumber would be the one to challenge both the Dems and Reps. LOL

Yes, yes. You laugh and laugh and laugh. She’s just a funny, irrelevant clown who amuses you.
Strange that the actions of liberals utterly bely their words. You claim Sarah Palin is just a funny irrelevance, but your side has actual strategy sessions on her and pulled out all the stops to discredit her during the campaign.
Why is it that the same media that put the silly clown through the mill refused to do the same for Obama? What does that say about the president’s ability to withstand scrutiny? We all seem to understand that if questioned, Obama would collapse. Why is that acceptable to you?

I once heard Michael Medved state that Obama did go through the media ringer and survived, while Palin struggled.
This is absurd. I don’t recall anyone searching high and low in Chicago for surreptitious ties to fraudsters, querying the depth of association with Rev. Wright, or asking tough questions involving his proposed legislative agenda.
It was a whitewash, aided and abetted by a media who voted nearly unanimously for Obama.

I once heard Michael Medved state that Obama did go through the media ringer and survived, while Palin struggled.
Medved is one of those old-timey, old-school, bipartisan, reach-across-the-aisle conservatives who are embarrassed all to hell by Palin. Medved is often wring, and when he’s wrong, he’s always wrong in a huge way. He supported the amnesty bill, blatantly lying about the massive loopholes in the enforcement provisions.
He’s now lying about TARP, claiming that the banks are paying back the bailout funds and the taxpayer is making a profit. Wrong:
About $12 billion has been received in dividends or from the sale of warrants, and that led to cheery reports, including one or two of my own, that TARP was earning a decent return on investment.
Not so, Barofsky said this morning on teevee: the 17 percent return on investment being cited is not realistic, because there are many billions that, by design, will never be repaid.
http://moneywatch.bnet.com/economic-news/blog/macro-view/tarp-inspector-general-gives-program-and-treasury-low-marks/1138/
Back to Palin: I’m not a social conservative. I disagree with social conservatives on most of the hot-button issues. I don’t like hunting. I don’t go to church. I don’t drop my g’s.
But I’m very impressed with Palin. I’m not embarrassed by her. I examined her record and found much that I admired in it. She’s a throwback to an earlier era in our history, and I like that.
Medved–like McCain–is simply too inconsistent and confusing to respect. How many times did McCain have to explain his positions and reassure us that his position on whatever issue was in fact not counterintuitive but smart and honorable?
Conversely, how often did Sarah Palin have to do that? She–like Cheney and Bolton–leave no doubt as to their positions. You can agree or disagree, but you’re never left scratching your head and asking yourself why the heck she said something.
We need that clarity. I’d vote for her in a second. I don’t care that I disagree with her on social issues. She made it clear that she’s not out to impose her personal values on the country, so that’s good enough for me.
Joe commented:
There is ABSOLUTELY nothing remarkable about Palin as a person or a politician. In fact, the opposite is true.
What IS remarkable is the way the type of people who read this blog have attached themselves to her. I don’t think anyone “fears” her per se, what they fear is what would happen to this country if people like you actually succeeded in voting her to power. Highly unlikely, but not something to be ignored. The type of people who think that Joe The Plumber and Palin should be running this country are dangerous and need to be dealt with. We already tried 8 years of a dolt (one who is no where near as clueless as Palin or the Plumber) and look where that got us.
I don’t speak for all rational people (progressives) in this country, but that is why I pay attention to the Palin wackos. Not to mention, it’s quite entertaining to see what stupid thing she says next.

I agree — clarity of language matters precisely because clarity of thought does. Orwell warned that language is often used (abused?) in overtly politically ways in order to obscure meaning. This is why Palin brings out the worst in political elites (commentators, columnists, and politicians) — they love their word games and endless use of coterie jargon.
I just find her to be refreshing — she brings something special to politics that has been missing for a very long time.

They probably don’t care. In this instance, it’s unlikely that making money is an object.
Richard Romano commented:
Just to clarify, George Orwell argued in his appendix to 1984 that for tyrants to standardize thought they must, of necessity, standardize the language. Precision and clarity of language matter because precision and clarity of thought do.
Listen to any of Palin’s speeches — clear and direct. Obama’s, in contrast, are filled with trite statements and political jargon — soaring rhetoric that does just that, soar.
Is it little wonder people are tiring of his rhetoric? They want concrete speech and reasonable action — two components missing in Obama’s administration thus far, hence the falling poll numbers and growing dissent.
2010 will be a tough year for Democrats.
Solaratov commented:
And btw, joey, I invite you – wholeheartedly – to attempt to deal with me and mine. I’d welcome your attempt.
Having “dealt with” a fairly large number of your “progressive” bretheren (beginning in the 60s), I doubt that you and your oh-so-delicate little compadres would offer much of a challenge.

The thinly disguised misogyny that’s surrounded the left’s treatment of Sarah Palin from day one might be a joke to you, but it gives your feminazi compatriots a credibility problem.

Well, well. It would seem that I missed a whole raft of posts put up by our little leftists. And now gone.
I really must start checking in more frequently. If for no other reason than to see what new insanity the leftards have posted.
I wonder why they all seem to drag everything into some sort of homosexual fantasy world of theirs. All of them seem to do it.
They seem to be obsessed with homosexuality, bowel movements and any strange combination of the two. One can but be repulsed at the thought of what their “relationships” must be like.
Hypogean commented:
Solaratov, as Obama continues to crash and burn, expect his crew to allow themselves free expression of every horrendous thought that ever polluted their skulls.
By the time the 2010 election rolls around, this and other conservative blogs are going to be swamped with unbelievable levels of crud that will backfire magnificently, of course, but which will be unpleasant just the same.

WHat’s the with the stupid Left stereotype of conservative women and working?
Nancy Pelosi can have five kids and nobody conservative sneered about that and Liberals gushed at how wonderful she is.
Obama intones that “as parents we all try to teach our kids, but uh uh you know if they mess up” I don’t want to my daughters to be burdened with a baby. No one made skanky jokes about Obama’s girls messing up, even though their father admitted that there was a real chance they MIGHT, despite his parental counsel.
Obama, owner of a million-dollar house, while living free at taxpayer expense in the world’s most exclusive address with cooks, housekeepers, chauffeurs, security guards, getting lavish free concerts on US taxpayers’ dimes come to his lawn, has a starving, orphaned half-brother in Kenya and can’t even find a ten dollar bill to send to him once a month.
What does anyone gain from listening to such rank either liars or hypocrites?

This is awfully funny coming from someone who calls people that don’t agree with him “pedophiles”. And the person who posted this comment earlier this evening:
“You wanna “deal” with me, Joey? Come here and I’ll show you how I deal with commie pukes like you. Here’s a little hint: it involves anal sex. I hope you bring lots of lube, boy. I’m already hard at the thought of of bending you over and dealing with you the way real American patriots deal with pinko Marxists. Good old fashioned American sodomy.”
Are there 2 solaratovs or do you suffer from multiple personality disorder? Or could it be the good old “phony outrage” that you wingnuts are famous for?

Uh… actually the term “dealt with” can quite clearly mean to pay attention to or strategize against. It in no way implies violence. I am as against violence as one can be. Of course, leave it to wingnuts to bring violence into everything. Typical…

They FEAR Palin. I love everything about her and I’m a disenfranchised dem (ashamed of ever having been a dem). I’m pro life, pro God and anti obamao. Hey jerkoffs, your man obamao is GOING DOWN LOL. He has ONLY 27% approval rating today October 21, 2009. Down from 65% approval rating 9 months ago. Give it time and it’ll be a 5% approval rating come Christmas. Fear that you progressive pea brain. Your guy sucks and you are too stupid to admit it. Palin has awoken the silent majority. Half the Tea parties are anti-obamao ex-dems. LOL laughing now jerk offs?
You have to fear the Dems voting for her. That’s what you have to fear. Oh yes she is running. I’m certain of it. I have proof. She is pro-american and YES SHE CAN win and YES SHE CAN do a great job of running the country. And you know it!!!
We now have a pResident worse thn Nixon and Cahtah put together. Radical lefties won’t win. They’ll have to steal the election again and it won’t happen because there are too many voting for Palin. She’s the bug spray and you radical progressive maoists are the bugs LOL.
The Rasmussen Reports daily Presidential Tracking Poll for Wednesday shows that 27% of the nation’s voters Strongly Approve of the way that Barack Obama is performing his role as President. Forty percent (40%) Strongly Disapprove giving Obama a Presidential Approval Index rating of -13. That’s just a point above the lowest level ever recorded for this President. It’s also the sixth straight day in negative double digits, matching the longest such streak

No wonder you chase after children. Grown women scare you too badly.
And, just keep backpedaling about what you wrote. All it does is show you to be a lying weasel and a coward. (A “progressive”, if you will.)

Actually Solaratov uses that on a specific person who actually did *advocate* pedophilia. It’s possible he suspects you are that specific person since said person likes playing games with IP addresses and aliases.
Later, Joe bleated:

I believe the new blog site’s filters prevent me from typing in the appropriate word to describe the above so I’ll just speculate on what pretty flowers you can grow with it.

My point is that you are obsessed with homosexuality and pedophilia. You then accuse others of having these obsessions. If you are so disgusted by this, then why do you constantly bring up these subjects?
Answer- because you are a sick, twisted, hypocrite fool.
Bo commented:
Man, I’m glad that we have blogs. Otherwise, I can imagine a bunch of out of shape guys spilling out into the street in stupid fistfights.
Sarah is great. I hope you all have checked out her Facebook page. Refreshing to read plain English instead of Academian doublespeak. I speak it, but it’s a waste of good time when there are things to get done… unless you don’t want certain other people to be in on it.
Dmitry commented:
Wait,
This is a web-only printing on demand publishing company. The only way they can sell something is to get mentioned in blogs, news etc. And this is exactly what they are trying to do with their provocative cover and choice of subject and publishing date. The more we mention this, more they sell (it can even reach hundreds!). This is just a web based spam using phishing technique (cover) and hoping for viral distribution. Without our outrage they will die well deserved death very soon. Just move OR publishing into IGNORE list, and live happily.

You’re kidding right, do you actually see Biden do any work, except babble incoherently on any topic, i retrospect, that was probably too small a role for her.

Katrina VanDan Heuval is a hateful lesbian who is jealous of Palin.

Ken- that is truly a ridiculous argument. the reason why Palin should not be elected is because she is what we refer to as a “category 5 moron”.
anonymous commented:
I won’t buy one of these books. I hear enough about Palin. She is not going to run for President in 2012. Romney and Huckabee won’t get the nominee in 2012.
Ken commented:
Joe, I agree that Palin is lacks the knowledge to be VP. She appears to know very little. But I also think kids need parents who have time to spend with them, and the energy to spend quality time.
narciso commented:
Right, Biden who doesn’t know why we send more money to Afghanistan rather than Pakistan, who said people should just stop traveling on trains and planes, and we are in a ‘depression’ well a blind squirrel does catch

I bring it up to publicly embarrass and humiliate you joey/blondie. And it seems that I’m doing a pretty good job of it.
In other words, child-rapist, I own your perverted ass evey time you crawl out of your hole. You’re a vile piece of trash – lower than scum on a cess-pool. And one of the main reasons that you are such a “progressive” is that you believe – by your own admission – that the age of consent will be lowered to about nine years old under their aegis. That’s all you live for.
Have a nice day, pervert.

THE AUDACITY OF HOPE
“How a president who never held a job could believe he could actually lead the greatest nation on earth”
Joe commented:
Solaratov- once again, I have NO IDEA what you are talking about with your pedophile talk. Perhaps at some time in the past, you had someone named Joe who brought up this topic. But I can assure you, that was a different Joe. In case you didn’t realize, “Joe” is a fairly common name. If you would rather bring up your obsession with pedophilia rather than debate real issues, that’s probably because you have no clue what you are talking about. I will just ignore you.

Liberals and many thoughtful conservatives alike disdain Palin. Can you explain that bbay?

Calm down…jeez. Grow some skin guys. If you want others to take your ideas seriously, you must first learn to laugh at yourselves. Collective hyperventilating over any perceived slight to Sarah Palin makes your movement look foolish.

Scathing. Simply scathing.
And what’s an “ex-military retiree”? I *used* to be a military retiree, but I gave it up?
You leftards are so freakin’ stupid. Why don’t you just go on back to worshipping your obamassiah, you obot sycophant? It’s what you’re best at. (Try to make up more excuses for him. He needs them.)
Bunion commented:
From the “Colorado Independent”
Former governor Sarah Palin completed her memoir in four months. She knew what she wanted to say, apparently, and had Lynn Vincent, a senior writer for the Christian publication World Magazine, bang it out. The book is due November 17 and is originally listed at $28.99 at Amazon, except that it’s already available at a cut-rate discount: Going Rogue is priced-to-sell at a mere $9– that’s for a hardcover due out in three weeks. Which raises the question: How many bestseller lists can the book top before it’s printed?
Palin’s book is just the latest addition to the the right-wing bestseller industry, where wingnut web-giveaways and bulk pre-publication sales inflate purchase rates and shoot titles up the lists, leading stores to further promote and discount them. It’s part of what Hillary Clinton, also author of a bestselling memoir, might call the vast right-wing publishing conspiracy, where the marketing of conservative titles as bestsellers is meant to push a right-wing agenda and bolster arguments that the majority of the country really thinks like Rush– or Palin or like attack writer Jerome Corsi, author of election-season bestseller The Obama Nation, a “nonfiction bestseller” that was neither, as Prof. Peter Drier put it.

Puuwai commented:
“The people who hate her have what’s called a “conditioned response” to her. It’s not based on rationality.”
Kidding, right? I don’t care for her because she is a poor leader, a quitter, not very bright, with a big ego and a very self-righteous stance. It is she, not the MSM or lefties or Democrats, who makes herself look bad, nearly every time she opines.

definition of ex-military retiree: someone who was once in the military. Then worked in the private sector, got old, then retired. Understand?

So here’s the idea of the week.
1) Go to the bookstore
2) Buy a copy of the liberal hit piece.
3) Walk out the door. Open book. Wipe your nose (or some other body part) with a single interior page of the books.
4) Walk back in to the store and demand a refund.
Go to next store and repeate.
Retailers hate to handle returns. They have to do the accounting, restocking, etc. It will take about 24 hours for them to pull this piece of crap off the stands.
