News from her Facebook page, and I am rather thrilled to see myself on her list of interviews 
I am very, very excited about the upcoming road trip for my book. It will be an honor to meet as many of you as possible!
“Going Rogue” publisher HarperCollins is working hard to schedule book signings across the nation, and we’ll be announcing the locations in the next day or two. I’ve decided to travel to cities outside of the typical book tour venues, and I hope to cover as much of the country as I can.
We’re in the process of arranging interviews with local and national media. An interview with Oprah Winfrey is already scheduled, and I’m also hoping to have the opportunity to talk with Bill O’Reilly, Barbara Walters, Sean Hannity, Greta Van Susteren, Glenn Beck, Rush Limbaugh, Mark Levin, Laura Ingraham, Dennis Miller, Tammy Bruce, and others, including local Alaska personalities Bob & Mark and Eddie Burke. (Variety is the spice of life!)
Can’t wait to hit the road. Can’t wait to see you!
- Sarah Palin
Runaway Balloon or Jiffypop? You decide.
What we said on Tammy Radio when no kid was found in balloon. No Xbox for him for at least 10,000 years.
Fort Collins boy who went up in balloon craft found at his home
“He’s been located! He’s alive! He’s at the house!”
Larimer County Sheriff Jim Alderden interrupted a media update in Fort Collins to announce that the 6-year-old boy thought to be missing in a balloon craft has been found alive at his home.
“Apparently, he’s been there the whole time,” Alderden said. “Hiding in a box a cardboard box, in an attic above the garage.”
Checking the entire house next time might be a good idea, no?
Woo hoo! “Stand Up For Our Nation.” Sounds good to me.
Palin Plans New Political Group
Sarah Palin fans can expect to see a new Palin political organization surface as her memoir, “Going Rogue: An American Life,” hits the shelves next month.
“There will be an announcement about it coming up,” Palin associate Tim Crawford said Wednesday.
The New York Post reported this week that Palin’s new group will be called “Stand Up For Our Nation.” (News Corp. owns both the Post and The Wall Street Journal as well as HarperCollins Publishers, publisher of Palin’s book.) Crawford, who is treasurer of Palin’s existing political-action committee, SarahPAC, refused to provide any details about the new organization’s purpose or structure.
That is all. Talk amongst yourselves. I will be distributing noise makers and party favors soon. Woo hoo!
UPDATE: Here’s the link to Amazon.
That’s right.
Palin finishes memoir, ‘Going Rogue,’ out Nov. 17
Sarah Palin, the former Alaska governor and vice presidential candidate, has finished her memoir just four months after the book deal was announced, and the release date has been moved up from the spring to Nov. 17, her publisher said.
“Governor Palin has been unbelievably conscientious and hands-on at every stage, investing herself deeply and passionately in this project,” said Jonathan Burnham, publisher of Harper. “It’s her words, her life, and it’s all there in full and fascinating detail.”
Palin’s book, her first, will be 400 pages, said Burnham, who called the fall “the best possible time for a major book of this kind.”
The book now has a title, one fitting for a public figure known for the unexpected — “Going Rogue: An American Life.”
Harper, an imprint of HarperCollins, has commissioned a huge first printing of 1.5 million copies. Sen. Ted Kennedy’s “True Compass,” published by Twelve soon after his Aug. 25 death, also had a 1.5 million first printing.
UPDATE: Palin has posted an excerpt of her remarks over at her Facebook page.
UPDATE 2: Conservatives4Palin have an excellent roundup of media reaction to the governor’s speech.
All in all, sounds like the speech most of us hoped she would give. She slams Obama and praises Reagan and Thatcher. An excellent debut. The NYT quotes an attendee as having the impression Palin was positioning herself as more of a “libertarian or a small-c conservative.”
And what was Obama doing while Sarah Palin was talking about the importance of our personal and economic freedom? He was being praised by despotic genocidal beasts Castro and Ghaddafi.
Palin Addresses Asian Investors
Former Governor Touches on Budget Deficit, Health Care and China
HONG KONG — Former Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin, in what was billed as her first public-speaking engagement outside North America, blamed the world financial crisis on government excesses and called for a new round of deregulation and tax cuts for U.S. businesses.
“We got into this mess because of government interference in the first place,” the former Republican U.S. vice presidential candidate said Wednesday at a conference sponsored by investment firm CLSA Asia-Pacific Markets. “We’re not interested in government fixes, we’re interested in freedom,” she added…
She described her political philosophy as a “common-sense conservatism,” and said the free-market policies of Ronald Reagan and Margaret Thatcher should be guides for how to get out of the current economic situation. “Liberalism holds that there is no human problem that government can’t fix if only the right people are put in charge,” she said.
Mrs. Palin didn’t refer to President Barack Obama by name, but said his promise for change during the election hasn’t taken hold. She called his campaign promises “nebulous, utopian sounding…Now 10 months later, though, a lot of Americans are asking: more government? Is that the change we want?”…
Sarah Palin arrives in Hong Kong
In other areas, she criticized Democratic House Speaker Nancy Pelosi for speaking skeptically about the need for more troops in Afghanistan. “Afghanistan is where the 9/11 attacks were planned and if we are not successful there, al Qaeda will find a safe haven there again,” she said.
I’d say she’s sounding, how should I say it, presidential?
Two pieces of good news. First, I’m usually not a big fan of graffiti but this is the sort of ‘Urban Art’ I certainly do appreciate. It’s so…real and artsy-ish. Courtesy of The Eastsider L.A.
I also hear it was seen in West Hollywood, CA. You know, where all the liberal gays live. How weird. Visit Hot Air for that iPhone pic. It is rather special.
And now for an update on our beloved O’Joker pics. The O’Joker poster was a march fave amongst the 9/12 Patriots. Well, sadly the original Los Angeles freeway O’Joker posters were torn down. I know, I know. But amazingly they have been replaced, and by even more! Yes, good news does multiply, even if it’s on the same freeway on ramp.
Onward Artistes! Even in Los Angeles anonymous Art Creative Left Coasty-types seem to still have had enough.
TAMs, there is a special post in the Members page with information on how you can meetup with other Tammy Army members for the march tomorrow in DC.
Everyone also please feel free to use this post as a sort of bulletin board if you would like to connect in DC for the march with other Independent Conservative Tammy readers and listeners.
Remember you can access the Freedom Watch agenda for the march at www.912dc.or/agenda.
That’s right. In one month alone Americans made themselves and this nation safer (from enemies foreign and domestic) by choosing to exercise one our most precious rights–the right to own a firearm.
I think Thomas Jefferson would be especially pleased with this news when we consider a letter he sent to one of his nephews:
“A strong body makes the mind strong. As to the species of exercises, I advise the gun. While this gives a moderate exercise to the Body, it gives boldness, enterprise, and independence to the mind . . . Let your gun therefore be the constant companion of your walks.”
–Thomas Jefferson, Letter to his nephew Peter Carr, August 19, 1785
Another 1,000,000+ Guns Added to American Homes in August
Data released by the FBI’s National Instant Criminal Background Check System (NICS) reported 1,074,757 checks in August 2009, a 12.3 percent increase from the 956,872 reported in August 2008.
So far that is roughly 9,076,205 gun bought this year! The total is probably more as NICS background checks may cover the purchase of more than one gun at a time…The increased trend of Americans buying firearms at a record pace was once thought to be a one time fluke caused by fears of the new Obama administration expressed lust for more gun control. But now 10 months in and the wrongly named “fear buying” has now become the norm as law abiding US citizen exercise their constitutional right to keep and bear firearms by the millions every month with no sign of slowing down.
The bulk of the buying has been concentrated on the following types of guns or calibers:
* Semi Auto Handguns
* Revolvers
* Ar15s and all variants of the Black Rifle
* .50 Caliber
I feel safer already But this post should be taken in the context of Maynard’s post regarding the efforts by the political class to make ammunition more difficult to get. They know they can’t outlaw firearms so this assault on ammunition is the next best thing for them. Most things politicians do these days needs to be stopped, AB 962 in California is one of them.
I predicted by Monday, so I guess I was right 
And at least we finally know how Urkel is able to get so many freakish friends (and the odd van) under that bus! Pretty soon, though, the driver of that bus is gonna find himself under there with all the other fools. Now that will be a good day.
Obama ‘green jobs’ adviser quits amid controversy
President Barack Obama’s adviser Van Jones has resigned amid controversy over past inflammatory statements, the White House said early Sunday.
Jones, an administration official specializing in environmentally friendly “green jobs” with the White House Council on Environmental Quality was linked to efforts suggesting a government role in the 2001 terror attacks and to derogatory comments about Republicans.
So let me see if I understand this: Glenn Beck still on the air. Van Jones fired. Sounds about right.
