From her humble beginnings to her time in the spotlight as the first female Republican Vice Presidential candidate, Sarah Palin has led an extraordinary life. Going Rogue will recount her political experiences, her time as Mayor of Wasilla and as the first female governor of Alaska, as well as her rapid rise on the national stage during the 2008 campaign.
Additionally, she’ll share insights into the personal challenges she’s faced including balancing her time as a working mother, recognizing the war’s impact with her son serving combat in Iraq, having a child with a disability and supporting her teenage daughter through an unplanned pregnancy.
Palin has received much attention through the media, but never before has her complete story been told in her own words. The memoir will be both a personal and political chronicle of her life.



i just had the pleasure of watching mrs. palin interviewed by greta on fox 3/23/11. she gave one of the most stirring, strong, concise explanations of why it is imperative for the u.s to be UNWAVERING in it’s support for israel that i have ever heard. sarah.. you may be a woman, but in this case, you ARE the man. our president and bleeding heart palastinian sympathizers could learn volumes from you.your moral path is as clear as white light. god bess you.
You say it! She’s my hero.

Hey, how about that ‘Going Rouge’ thing?
This is from a one of your rally promos:
“SATURDAY 06/12/10, 10:00 AM
Get on Target for Victory in November
Help remove Gabrielle Giffords from office
Shoot a fully automatic M16 with Jesse Kelly”
CONGRATULATIONS SARAH!! You got what you asked for!! Who knew that a “Mama Grizzly” could help inspire an assassination attempt on an elected official.
I also REALLY congratulate you for distributing congressional district maps, including Gabrielle Gifford’s, with gun-sight cross-hairs laid over them. Wow! What a great example you are. You’re just the kind of leader we need for the deliberative democracy that our Founders created!
From now on, PLEASE keep your “Faith, Family and Flag” ideas to yourself.
She should start reading books instead of writing them
This lady should be taken off political view and should focus more on being a real person than a babbling hypocrite..she should try learning some values herself instead of preaching her garbage to people.
SARAH…RUN!!! Keep it simple…the cause is FOR THE PEOPLE..
“RE-LOAD CHANGE. BRING AMERICA & GOD BACK…NOW!!
(Millions are awaiting dependable leadership at all levels.)
The T-Party has thrown FEAR into POLITICS, be it Democrat, Republican or Independant. Your time is NOW! We, the silent majority will no longer stand aside with a satisfied acceptance of our leaders. Fortunately, this includes YOU.
SARAH…RUN!!!!
Charging rape victims for rape kits? You didn’t know?? I need an answer?
Never even considered reading the book but happy for a forum to share views about Palin. Every time she opens her mouth is an affirmation that she lacks any and all qualifications to hold any public office. Every word she utters in her nasty high-school girl mannerism demonstrates the lack of knowledge and understanding she has of the world stage. How happy is Alaska to be rid of her. Her past will catch up wtih her, and in the not-too-distant future we’ll all know why she quit. She is a thug and a bully with the intelligence of a pile of rocks.
I’m Curious How The Hell Would People Whom Hate Sarah Palin Be So Inept,& Ignorant That They Seek Out A Forum,Or Blog Just To Call Her Names Which Has Nothing,Nada,Zilch,Zero That Has Anything To Do With Her Politics,I’m Almost Certain That Any Of You Has The Slightest Knowledge Of What This Person Stands For That’s Why All You Can Do Is Spread Your Abuse,Vitriol,Misogyny,Corrupt,& Misinformed Minds Of Yourselves On The Correct Topic Of These Statements Of Mrs Palin’s Intentions Of Her Political Inspirations.

It isn’t her politics -
It is her methods:

Shoot a fully automatic M16 with Jesse Kelly”
If Sarah Palin supports RINOs like McCainiac and Ms Lindsey Gramnesty, she can forget ever being President. Those are the two most despicable RINOs who call themselves Republicans.
If she’s against a government takeover of healthcare and doesn’t want you to have “socialized medicine” where others pay for your illnesses, why does her grandson Tripp have “socialized healthcare” through Indian Health Services and the Alaska Native Medical Center, while her family earns millions? Hannity mentions the largest deficit, but all Obama is doing is paying off the credit card Bush ran up for 8 years.
I greatly admire you, Sarah, but I was greatly disappointed when I found out you are campaigning for Gov Perry (Texas). Please don’t be suckered into towing the party line. Show you still have the Rogue in you. Do your research on Perry, Kay Bailout Hutchinson and Deborah Medina. I think you’ll find a way to make a graceful exit from the Perry stage to walk proudly beside Deborah Medina.
sarah should stop looking at the splinters in other people’s eyes & should focus on the log in hers. she abuses others with her words & gets all self righteous about others being as insensitive as she is. go heal thyself first, sarah.
I am a Constitutionalist Conservative endorsed by our district Tea Party (East Valley Tea Party Patriots), running against one of the most subtle RINO’s in the nation, Jeff Flake in Arizona’s CD 6.
I met Sarah at a book signing in Tempe a month ago and need to get her my campaign information.
Does anyone on this site have any ideas on how to get this to her for her consideration of endorsing me?

There are critics of Sarah Palin but in my opinion she is also a very good politician and she also did some good projects in Alaska.
`
I am a big fan of Sarah’s but the comment that she made about Former Gov. Michael Huckabee was improper and she should Apologize. The Gov. commuted the sentence of a 17 year old based on the facts of the case and made the right decision. If Sarah wants to fault someone it should be the Prosecutor who failed to put this 28 year old back in prison when he violated parole!
Sarah,
I would like you to initiate a mailing by the General Public to all Democrats that are up for Election in 2010. If we were to send a simple letter with a pink slip inside with the phrase (2010 Elections) printed in large size and sent to Democrats from concerned citizens of our great nation. This would be something that all Americans could be involved in unlike the town hall meetings that were so great but which so few Americans could attend because of location and financial constraints. Would you please make a list with all their names and addresses so that all of our concerned citizens can express our displeasure with the way Congress is leading our Great Country i.e., Health Care, Cap and Trade and the deficit.
We could also put “God Bless America” and “In God We Trust” on the envelopes.
Thank You
Daryl Dirks
I would like a reply from Sarah.
I am a conservative who really supported palin until I learned about her stand on wildlife…I have been an animal rights activist for 30 years and can no longer support sarah..i am very disappointed…she is a female Ted Nugent and would send animal rights back to the 1800′s!…
Please pass this along. The best hope for the Govenor in 2012 is going to be getting Rove on board.
Before she can do anything she has got to get elected and to get elected she needs to hook up with Rove.
Anybody that can get George Bush 2 terms as President will make a cake walk out of getting the Govenor elected.
Thank you
Sarah Palin is a good leader. i can say that because she did some projects in alaska that helped lots of people .
Could you please tell me what time and where at will you be signing your book tomorrow, Nov. 23, 2009, at Fort Bragg in North Carolina?
I find it very strange and VERY TELLING that your future candidate is making sure she isn’t going on any shows that would TRULY test her qualifications to lead anything . A turn on C-span or MSNBC or CNN would surely expose her for the lightweight she IS . And stop with the middle america crap / euphemism and call it as it is , ” white shit – kickers ! !
Will you please come to WI or IL?
Sarah,
If I might offer a suggestion to your managers for your upcoming book signings. If you have people stand in line 3 hours to get a wristband to gain entry and you put a number on it of 1000, and then those same people stand in line for 4 more hours expecting to get their books signed, make sure they get something preferably their book signed, all of them!!!!!Don’t cut them off with nothing.No matter what commitments you may have with Borders or any of them, your commitment with your supporters is much more important.What happend in Noblesville last night was not a good thing.Your managers need to do a better job!! Have them be honest with us and say they are only going to do 600 signings if that is the true number.
PULLEEAAASEEE come to Seattle/Bellevue WA for your book tour!!!
I love you Sarah people aren’t raised correctly sorry about them. Stay strong lady and I will always have your back
God loves us all and thanks for standing for what is right!
I actually found this more etenratniing than James Joyce.
Russell and Rudy are complete examples of hateful liberals running their mouths about something they don’t understand and never will. They felt compeled to seek out a site that supports Sarah to spew their hate. A lower life form there is not. The level of vitriol coming from these guys and the left is disturbing to say the least. Does anyone have the time to go to Al Gores website and point out all the lies and hypocracy he espouses. I don’t. It is obvious that Russel lacks any sort of class. I would trounce this guy in a legitimate debate because he has one huge handicap, he argues emotionaly. At least Rudy kept it legitimate by only hinting at Sarah’s perceived lack of intelligence. Frankly I think she could run this country better than this group we currently have. Russell has lost all credibility and should save his rants for his liberal cronies.
Seriously, how pathetic it is to seek out a site of someone you don’t like just to lob rediculous insults,…. just like a big cyber bully.
What a loser.
How do you know have you read the book? By my calender it says it will be out on 11/17/09. I’m one of those so called mindless idiot’s. If you want to debate lets debate on the issues. And STOP THE PERSONAL ATTACKS ON Sarah Palin
I would use this idiot’s book to wipe the ass of my pets. The fact that someone paid this loon millions to write with crayons is a shame! What in hell would this bimbo have to say??? She is an idiot!! Her belifes are insane!! But, watching her campaign, she is backed by a lot of mindeless idiots!!!
you tell em big bro
our mindless lady of the pentacost can’t tell the difference between likeable American simplicity and simple-minded anti-intellectualism – not that she ever thinks about it much, or anything else for that matter
Really, who wipes their pets ass?? This is bizare to say the least. What sort of Liberal spewing, pet ass wipeing planet are you from?
Huh,.. and they say us “Tea Baggers” are strange.
I bet Colonial Britain said the same things about the original
Tea Party. I think I’m in good company.
