Now, come all the whackos out of the woodwork claiming that Palin supporters are racist. Luckily,
FoxNews' "Red Eye" host Greg Gutfeld razored MSNBC's Nora O'Donnell and her brethren for claiming that Sarah Palin fans are racist:
The Libs continue to shoot themselves in the foot. First, they fail to recognize how sexist they are and how fearful they make themselves out to be by their drive to continually vilify and attack Palin -- all because Palin does not conform to the Libs' notion of a "real woman." (Where the hell was and is NOW as their "sistahs" Palin and Hillary Clinton were/are trashed for their appearance?!?) They have their mind made up that a woman cannot be pretty, intelligent, assertive, pro-life, and a ball-breaker. She must be pro-abortion above all else. Gutfeld also points out how glaringly racist the MSNBC "journalists" are (... but, I guess that's not glaring enough for O'Donnell, Matthews and their ilk).
Or, as Jimmie over at Sundriesshack put it: "Palin's Book Makes Number One; Left-Wingers Make Number Two in Their Jeans." (Hee, hee!)
Palin's topseller is available at all book outlets.
UPDATE: I thought I would add this little tidbit I found over at NewsBusters.org where Jeff Poor reported on how Libs are pushing for separate bestseller lists -- one for Libs and one for conservatives. It seems they resent the astronomical success of conservative authors (emphasis added):
In the inimitable words of Larry the Cable Guy: "That's funny right there. I don't care who ya are!"
According to The Huffington Post, Michelle Malkin, Mark Levin, Glenn Beck and other right-of-center stars that regularly dominate the New York Times Hardcover Non-Fiction Bestsellers List are - or should be - in a league of their own.
No, that isn't Arianna Huffington's blog heaping praise on conservative authors. It's a literal suggestion. With right-leaning books and authors holding so many spots on the list, and more to come - former Sarah Palin, former Dick Cheney and President George W. Bush all have books due out -Huffington Post suggests conservatives should have their own category to differentiate from other works of non-fiction.
In a Nov. 9 entry on The Huffington Post that laments Fox News host Glenn Beck pulling a feat not done before - holding the number one spot on The New York Times' four lists: hardcover fiction, hardcover non-fiction, paperback non-fiction and children's - they suggest a separate category altogether, not for political non-fiction, but conservative non-fiction.
"Should The New York Times create a separate bestseller list for conservative blockbusters?" the post said. "Think of the history: we have a children's bestseller list because of "Harry Potter" -- Harry was knocking adult books off the top spots on the hardcover fiction list so publishers complained. The same thing must be true for Beck, Palin, Cheney, Bush (George W. and Laura), Malkin and others. What do you think?"
HuffPo isn't the only liberal source bothered by right-wing literary success. Pundits like MSNBC's Chris Matthews have openly expressed aggravation over conservatives dominating the list. However, the Huffington Post novel solution of "if you can't beat them, put them on their own list," seems to be a sign the left has given up on its own ability to sell hardcover non-fiction.
What's more, conservatives are selling books without the usual push best selling authors get from other media. A recent study by the Media Research Center's Culture & Media Institute found that most of the conservative books that appeared on the list often went unnoticed or unmentioned by the networks, while liberal authors and books enjoyed plenty of coverage.
