Memoir Is Palin’s Payback to McCain Campaign

As to purpose:

"Just as Ms. Palin’s planned book tour resembles a campaign rollout — complete with a bus tour and pit stops in battleground states — so the second half of this book often reads like a calculated attempt to position the author for 2012. She tries to compare herself to Ronald Reagan, by repeatedly invoking his name and record. She talks about being “a Commonsense Conservative” and worrying about the national deficit. And she attempts to explain, rationalize or refute controversial incidents and allegations that emerged during the 2008 race."

As a historical note the very first book burning er....... I mean book signing Palin had was in good ole Grand Rapids, Michigan. (Prince, Blackwater, DeVos etc.) They probably picked GR because a suburb just elected a faithful follower who has two felonies for embezzlement. (Talk about adherence to the profit motive.)  He also is a commentator on a bible radio station and is establishing a fund for Christian something.  As you see our schools have deteriorated.  After he was elected the other commissioners started looking for precedent to stop a two time felon from sitting with them. However, he may be the most honest of them all.

‘Going Rogue’ Tops Book Sales Chart
Compiled by Dave Itzkoff
Published: November 25, 2009

“Going Rogue,” the newly released memoir by Sarah Palin, the former Alaska governor and Republican nominee for vice president, sold 469,000 copies in its first week of release, according to figures released Wednesday by Nielsen BookScan. That made “Going Rogue” the top-selling book of the week on Nielsen BookScan’s chart, putting it ahead of new releases from authors like James Patterson (whose novel “I, Alex Cross” was No. 2) and Stephen King (whose novel “Under the Dome” was No. 3), as well as Dan Brown’s best-selling potboiler “The Lost Symbol.” Ms. Palin’s book also pulled the second-best first-week sales of any memoir by a current or past president, or vice presidential or presidential contender, Nielsen BookScan said. The No. 1 book on that list, “My Life,” by Bill Clinton, sold 606,000 copies in its first week in 2004. HarperCollins, which released “Going Rogue,” said the book’s overall first-week sales totaled 700,000 copies. Nielsen BookScan does not track sales at some mass market retailers, like Wal-Mart and Sam’s Club.

Status: offline 		I love Palin too, but I doubt she can win in 2012 simply because it is most likely that the economy will at least bounce back a little bit, and most people aren't smart enough to realize that it would have bounced back no matter who was in office.

People can't even figure out that most of the time it is the policies of the previous administration that determine boom or bust in the next administration. Look at Ronald Reagan. He was the recipient of a Carter induced recession, but 8 years later, he gave Bill Clinton one of the best economies we have had in decades. Then Clinton passes NAFTA, and the Chinese trade deal, and it's been downhill ever since. Now they have to resort to bailing out the big boys, printing up money, loaning it at 0% interest to the banks, and handing out socialist freebies in order to keep the illusion going.

As far as the policies of Bush causing this recession, bear in mind that both parties forced lenders to loan money to people at the drop of a hat, since republicans wanted to claim home ownership was at it's highest levels in history, and the democrats as always want people to be able to live beyond their means just as Government has been doing for the past 50 years.

I would put my money on Lou Dobbs if I were you. Someone put up a website for him during the last campaign, but he never entered the race since he had other responsibilities, and he had no idea the election was going to be so disastrous for America. This time around, he has plenty of time to prepare since he recently resigned from his job or was forced out by his politically correct bosses, whichever version you want to believe. The thing about Lou Dobbs is that he is a true moderate which most people are. You won't hear him talking about cancelling social security which scares of 80% of the voters, but you will hear him talk about enforcing our Immigration laws which is applauded by almost 80% of the voters.

Do you realize that we could cut the unemployement rate in half simply by enforcing our immigration laws?

So in summary then, her election would mean something bad and anyone that thinks this would be a negative should be condemned.

I can see why she might appeal to you.

On the contrary, I am everything thats wrong with America, even though I'm British; but then since bad appears to be the new good, everything is open to debate I guess.

He did?  Here I thought there was a Bush somewhere in between.



FED UP: The Federal Reserve must lower interest rates now to avoid ...The 1989-92 recession: The recession of 1989-92 was much deeper and longer than expected


Early 1990s recession

The recession of the early nineteen-nineties was an economic recession that hit much of the world in 1990-91. Dow Jones (July 1987 through January 1988)

On Black Monday of October 1987 a stock collapse of unprecedented size lopped 22.6 percent off the Dow Jones Industrial Average.

The collapse, larger than that of 1929, was handled well by the economy, and the stock market began to quickly recover.

However, in North America, the lumbering savings and loans industry was beginning to collapse, leading to a savings and loan crisis which put the financial wellbeing of millions of Americans in jeopardy.

Perhaps you can explain this to Merc.

Time to get out your calendar.

Reaganomics tanked at the end of his reign. Even his own people admitted it was a failure. Bush Sr. inherited that mess, and guess what? Saw recession, double digit unemployment and got booted out of office.

Clinton enjoyed the largest peacetime economic boom in our nation's history. There's nothing to compare it to. At least we ran surpluses, if not a lot of planning for the future. But Bush Jr, encouraged by Cheney ignoring history and saying "Ronald Reagan proved deficits don't matter," and immediately cut taxes and then rapidly increased spending--not only ignoring our structural problems, but exacerbating them.

You have a fluid grasp of economic economic impact--the next good time, no matter the time span, belongs to the guys you like, and the others, regardless of the time span or policy, to the ones you don't.

Perhaps you can see why I can't take that analysis seriously.

Dangit, I could swear that Bush was elected after Reagan, and that Clinton won by hammering about how bad the economy was four year after Reagan left office with the slogan, "It's the economy, stupid."

So lemme get this straight.  The Clinton era prosperity was due solely to Reagan, and 9/11 was due solely to Clinton?
