    This post needs to use more accurate and efficient language to describe her book, and almost anything she says. To do otherwise is to give her room to continue to create mischief. Here's my suggestion:

    "Her book: more lies." #sarahpalin

    Is it possible for Sarah Palin to say or write something that doesn't ooze with smug condescension?

    She's definitely borrowing from Anne Coulter's style of a.) say asshole things that appeal to just enough people to sell some books, then b.) capitalize on your notoriety as an asshole by saying the same stupid shit in a book. #sarahpalin

    She actually went through a vetting process? That's rich. And where is all of this going? Is she just going to continue to take jabs at everyone and have them continue to take jabs at her until 2012? #sarahpalin

    I liked how her FB update uses BIG, smart-sounding words... "subsequent", "erroneously".

    You should see the responses she got to that, they were hilarious. One guy saying that he didn't even know that people at AP could read?!?? Another guy still referring to her as "Governor" . #sarahpalin

    @se7a7n7: You read them too? Reading the inane and often unintelligible comments from her "fans" is a passion of mine. Gosh, if I had a dime for every time one of them referred to her as "Governor Palin" after she quit, I'd be a very rich lady. I also love that the liberal socialists are all apparently frightened to death of a Palin 2012 run for President when in reality that is what we are all quietly hoping for (both for the entertainment value, and because it would guarantee an Obama victory). #sarahpalin

    @se7a7n7: I'm not surprised. The fans shout "troll!" every time someone corrects them that she's not in fact "Governor" anymore, then they thank you for getting them one person closer to the million mark. What exactly do they think will happen when they get a million fans? She will ascend to the heavens and smite down our illegitimate Kenyan President? It's rather ridiculous. #sarahpalin

    The only money they shelled out on vetting her was the 25 cent charge to print out her Wikipedia entry at the Wasilla library computer. #sarahpalin

    @TheUptightMidwesterner: McCain and his camp have surely never heard of Wikipedia because it's on that infamous series of tubes known as the Internetz.

    It's more likely he had her write a 200 word essay entitled "Why I Deserve to be Vice President". Of course, 100 of those words were no doubt "also", "you betcha" and "y'all", so we can see where the process failed.

    Wondering if this could somehow lead to a libel suit by the RNC against Palin, which would cause her to accumulate more legal bills, so she would have to quit more jobs to write more books to pay for the legal bills, and the whole thing would get very meta. #sarahpalin

    In reply to In a Terrifying Alternate Universe, Vice President Sarah Palin Claims Victory
    Breaking news - some sort of civil war seems to be breaking out in South Carolina. Luckily it seems to be amongst republicans. Apparently Lindsay Graham is taking a stand against you godless, effete, liberal media types and your love of foreign oil. He's embracing cap and trade and telling you commies to go suck a gas nozzle. Then tonight the second volley was fired - some group threw up a quick response that consisted of Halloween (pagan, anti-christ like) images and angry, angry voices that was sayin' how Lindsay Graham hates America, and is embracing alternative energy and homosexuals who love drugs. I think they were calling themselves republicandouchebagswholove
    Americasomuchwewanttoburnfossilfuel...4eva.org. Then some other douchebag had a commercial where he informed South Carolinians that he's a republican AND a former Marine, and that anyone who hates Lindsay Graham and his love of green enrgy is probably a Gay. Some of that I made up, but Lindsay Graham has definitely embraced green technology, and his party is turning on him with a vengeance. Let's all sit back and watch them rip themselves to shreds, shall we? #sarahpalin
