Info Ink Book Review–“Going Rogue”

I had considered spending the $20+ for Sarah Palin book just to see where she was going with her “philosophy”.  I was saved the decision by my son-in-law who bought the book yesterday as it went on sale for the first time.  He said that he wanted my opinion of it before he decided whether to read it or give it as a Christmas gift…you know kinda like that fruit cake that makes the rounds….

The review is for “Going Rogue” by Sarah Palin……..

Sarah Palin…the former beauty queen, former news person, former major of a small town, former governor of Alaska and former vice presidential candidate….damn!  That is a lot of former and now she is a writer and according to right wing news person, Rush Limbaugh, she has written the best policy book ever……the best policy book written was one of the reason I wanted to read it……I am a policy analyst and junkie so with that recommendation I just had to read it…..

The 400+ pages was easily read….it was in the style of a 5th grader which means that anyone with half a brain can grasp what she is trying to say….which should make it a best seller and popular book……

But what does she write?  I now know that Todd without a shirt makes her randy……I know that she hates the media….which was something that was pretty well documented but she hates them to the point of taking them fishing with the hope that they would get muddy and s”slimy”….I now know, at least according to Palin, that the losing efforts on the GOP’s part was nothing to do with her…that she was the only winner they had…..I now know that the McCain campaign tried to control her eating habits……that Schmidt and Wallace were working against her and made her do things she knew was not in the best interests of the campaign…..her grasp of policy was nowhere in the book….she talked about the stim plan as if it was the bailout…..so the one policy she tackled was wrong…..

All in all her book is an attack on ther McCain organization and a call to arms for the mindless….there is nothing of substance in the book….which means that it will be a hit for this country loves mindlessness….that could explain the popularity of FOX and reality shows.

Okay back to Limbaugh…..he said the it was the best policy book written…..I thought I missed something and read it again….yes again…it is a very easy book to read when youi have nothing of substance to worry about checking…..the second time I was less impressed than the first time…..Limbaugh?  He is either getting paid to promote her book or he is a moron……I would like to believe that he is the first option and not the second……If anyone was looking for a policy book like other politicians, then you will be sadly disappointed.

The best thing I can say about the book is that no one will get a headache trying to keep up with her thinking….or if you suffer from insomnia….I prescribe “Going Rogue” and sleep like a baby.
