Rush talks about Sarah for third day in a row

Some excerpts from Thursday's Rush Limbaugh Show:
"Former Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin this week will begin accepting and rejecting the more than 1,070 invitations she has received for paid speeches and political appearances since she resigned from office, aides said. Twenty speakers’ bureaus made offers to represent her. ... More than 950 requests for speeches have poured in for Palin, and over 120 candidates for office have asked her to appear, including folks running for Senate, House and state Legislature, aides said." It was just yesterday, Page Six in the New York Post ran a story from an unidentified source who said that nobody wants her. She's a blithering idiot. People are afraid to book her. She can't get request to do a speech. They're asking a hundred grand for speeches she can't get one invitation. There's a story last night from the mainstream media. Not even the mainstream media was buying it you don't get a $7 million advance from a liberal publishing company if nobody wants you.

And then the latest news: "A publishing industry source [said] that they 'cannot remember a non-fiction book taking off like this in the pre-order market. It became number one only a couple of hours after nothing more than a date announcement. It is truly unprecedented.'" "Two days after the release date of Sarah Palin's book was announced, it's already become the top seller at both Amazon.com and BarnesandNoble.com," and it hasn't even gone to press yet, or maybe it's at press now. "Palin's publisher announced Monday that the former governor of Alaska and Republican vice presidential candidate had finished her memoir, 'Going Rogue: An American Life,' early and was moving the release date up from the spring to November 17. A Palin source told POLITICO that she 'is very grateful' for the strong early sales.

"'This book has taken off like a rocket,' the source said. HarperCollins will print 1.5 million copies for the book's first run, the same number that was printed for late Sen. Ted Kennedy's," whose I think the first week that book sold 68,000, Beck was twice that and now Sarah Palin's book."

  1. Sarah has liberated herself from legal bills debt.

    She really can't take money from people to solve her own problems.

    Of course, she didn't want Alaskans to bear the cost.

    She's always been personally responsible ... my kind of politician.

    Way to go, Sarah!

    I won't pre-order the book. I want to take the pain of going to a counter and shout to the roof that I want 10 copies of Going Rouge:

    1 for regular reading
    1 for souvenir, for signing ... to be placed in my favorite books shelf

    and the 8 copies as Christmas Gift to my liberal friends.

  2. You heard it here first. Don't be surprised next year to hear the media start contrasting Sarah Palin vs Tim Pawlenty. The media has been giving a lot of positive press to him since February. The media acted yesterday like the anouncement of Tim Pawlenty's PAC was somehow newsworthy. I believe they covered it so widely was to take attention of of Sarah's book success.

  3. Oh, yes. The Democrat-Media complex wants to select the next GOP presidential candidate just like they did with McCain in 08. They love to pit conservatives against each other in hopes of weeding it down to where the eventual nominee is a Vichy Republican that the Dem candidate will easily defeat.

    Watch how they will give more favorable coverage to the least conservative of the potential GOP candidates in the coming months as they trash the conservatives.

  4. Sarah is the one the left is afraid of. They attack the others if they make big enough gaffes. But they attack Sarah even by "making things up."
