Going Rogue
It seems that Sarah Palin, former governor of Alaska and former Republican vice presidential candidate, has completed her book. It’s entitled “Going Rogue: An American Life.” (According to Merriam-Webster’s Online Dictionary, rogue means 1) vagrant, tramp; 2) a dishonest or worthless person; 3) a mischievous person; 4) a horse inclined to shirk or misbehave; or 5) an individual exhibiting a chance and usually inferior biological variation.) Could they possibly have come up with a more perfect title?
The printed version of the book (actually written by an unknown author named Lynn Vincent) is scheduled for release on November 17, but most of Sarah’s fans will have to wait a while since the recorded version will not be out until the end of December.
David Letterman (of CBS’ Late Show with David Letterman) somehow got his hands on an advance copy. Here, according to him, is the cover:

For you pervs who may require a closer look:

Todd is kinda hot, isn’t he? Check out that six pack.
If you’re in the mood for some low-level reading and off-beat comedy, you may want to pick up Mrs. Palin’s book. However, I’d suggest you wait a week or two after its release when it will be on the dollar bargain table. At 400 pages (really? 400 pages of “wink” and “you betcha?”), it’ll make a nice doorstop.
UPDATE 10/01/09: Here is the actual cover of Mrs. Palin’s book…

What’s she looking at? Russia?
I think I prefer the Letterman version.
P.S. Amazing, isn’t it, what a little airbrushing can accomplish?

That cover from Letterman is SO FUnny! I love the definition of “rogue” and I’m betting not one person on her staff bothered to check for meaning. Great.
Sarah Sirhan rocks the Kasbah from Wasilla to West Wasilla. I thought the title was going to be Going Fey.

Fantastic, it’s out just in time for Christmas! Now I know what to buy the aunt who got me a self-help book last year
OMG! I didn’t see Letterman and thus haven’t seen this cover. That’s just great, thanks!
