Sarah Palin says: "Buy my book!"
After much anticipation, Sarah Palin's book, Going Rogue, is coming out today. So to celebrate the genius and logic of our potential future President (God help us all) here is a re-cap on some of the things she said in her major interviews with Oprah and Barbara Walters this week: - Palin gave Levi Johnston a porn name on Oprah. "I believe he goes by the name Ricky Hollywood now ... he's quite busy with the media tours." Meanwhile Palin is on a month-long media tour promoting her book.
- Sarah Palin tried to explain her devastating interview with Katie Couric last year by saying she was "annoyed with the question." She told Oprah that Couric asking what publications she read to stay in touch was a loaded question and "no matter what (she said) it (would) be twisted and perceived as a bit negative" so she answered "all of them." Of course the obvious answer would have been "New York Times, US News and News Week."
- Palin talked about Tina Fey with Barbara Walters saying the facts were blurred because of Fey's spot-on impersonation. Fey said "I can see Russia from my house" as Palin. Palin pointed out that she never said those words. What she actually said was, "you can actually see Russia from land here in Alaska." She went on to clarify this statement in the original Katie Couric (Oct. 08) interview by saying:
"As Putin rears his head and comes into the air space of the United States of America, where do they go? It's Alaska. It's just right over the border. It is from Alaska that we send those out to make sure that an eye is being kept on this very powerful nation, Russia, because they are right there, they are right next to our state."

After reading that, you can see how Tina Fey was WAY off when she said "I can see Russia from my house." What she should have said is "My name is Sarah Palin and you can rest easy because I'm keeping an eye on Russia!"
- Palin also talked with Barbara Walters about her decision to quit the Governorship in Alaska. She said she quit because she was approaching "that final year in office, and most normal politicians, what they do, knowing that they're not going to run again, they're in that lame duck ... that, that situation, they milk it." So instead of milking the lame duck situation by sitting in office and doing nothing, she quit and really did nothing. Oh wait, she did do something. She wrote a book that has already made her $1.25million dollars! (her retainer from Harper Collins)
- Barack Obama gets 4 out of 10 stars as President according to Sarah Palin. Meanwhile, in a recent CBS poll, less than 1 in 4 people view Palin favorably. That equals 2.3 out of 10 stars for Palin as a person. Ouch.
- Running for president is not on Sarah Palin's "radar" right now... blah, blah, blah. She can't wait to put her name on that list.
