Army to Palin: Zip It
Perhaps she’ll go rogue and speak anyway? The Army has asked Sarah Palin to not make a speech, pose for photos, or personalize the notes in books she signs when her Going Rogue book tour stops by Fort Bragg on Monday. The Army is worried that she would grandstand against President Obama. A spokesman from Fort Bragg told local news that so far sales of Palin’s book have been weak.

OK liberals. Here is today's Palin article.
Ready.........set..........UNLEASH THE HATE!
oaklynne
And yet here you are, plant, first in line. Ready....set...UNLEASH THE NEOCON TALKING POINTS!
BasPos
Slant, you've obviously never been in our armed forces. No matter one's personal political opinion, it has no bearing on your duty. Sarah's not smart enough to know this either;-(
Nonplussed
Oh my god the irony of Plant slamming anybody for hatred is going to make ... my head ... KABLAMMO!!
reasonable
reasonable to plant: zip it.
AlanD2
Since when has Plant ever been reasonable, reasonable?
oliverckerr
Titless, assless, gutless, and as she ages, moosefaced anti-semite. The Wasilla wag speaks ill of us as a melting pot nation.

Nonplussed
And you speak ill of anti-Palinism.
reasonable
Witless, clueless, gutless oliverckerr speaks ill of women's looks instead of actual political commentary.
AlanD2
Your personal comments do nothing for this discussion and are not appropriate, oliverckerr.
Prince-O
She can still get it from me :)
DakLak
She is pleasing to passing moose but they can be short-sighted.
Honchos
Reasonable, Alan, didn't you read Plant's comment above? Because of our political affiliation we're supposed to be hating Sarah Palin, not defending her from shrill, classless personal attacks. FOX News style politics doesn't work if you don't treat the other side as the bad guys. You guys are ruining it!
reasonable
Sorry, Honchos...forgot to suit up today!

These books sell well only when right wing groups or churches buy them and ship them out for free.
escomments
And the 3000 people lined up at Books a Million yesterday to just have a chance at maybe getting a wrist band that will allow them to get their books signed represent what?
helloricko
Low achievers? Right wing dingbats? High school dropouts? Pitbull owners? Wheel of Fortune fans?
cbeenthere
People who have money and apparently don't need their jobs.
tolatetocry
that's why the had to print another million! 2.5 million, first week!
Honchos
Book sales count as votes, right?
Waitaminute... does this mean that the guy with the big hair from Twilight is our president now?
DakLak
Tax free, too?
SarahPalinLover
Uhm i don't get this article. Her book sells are going great. #1.
apostleis
All she does it string right wing talking points together as a semi sentence. There is a lot of hate and frustration in this country that she and the other "your problems are because of someone else" talking heads feed it to make money.

You just don't know real leadership when you see it.

AlanD2
Nonplussed: I know real leadership when I see it - Barak Obama.
And I want Palin to run in 2012, ensuring Obama's second term as President.
retired-army-1SG
I have served under some of the finest leaders this country has ever produced. Mrs. Palin couldn't shine the shoes of those leaders. Leader like, LTG Claudia Kennedy, Deputy Chief of Staff for Intelligence. Now she is a leader...
tolatetocry
retired-army-1SG
I just googled your girl, big time supporter of Obama. Palin wouldn't shine their shoes anyway but they will salute her if she runs and wins.
Honchos
Yeah, just like they salute Obama now and whoever the president is, no matter which party. They're the military, you bozo, that's what they do. They don't play stupid partisan games. They serve our country, not just the half of it who agrees with them.
tolatetocry
Honchos,
you need to read all the comments. I agree with you!
escomments
Not likely!
rapierwits
Does this mean the army is becoming politicized against those who wrap themselves in the flag and would send theirs and the children of others to war?
BasPos
Please see my note above. Our armed forces must be above politics. It's the heart of our democracy.

Can't they just not let her on base?
Willow207
Make my day!!!!!!!!!
Anyone care to bet Palin pulls one of her famous "No Shows"???
Here is a much better detailed article, with a broader perspective of Palin's pseudo book tour to "real America"...ooops she never attended US history classes to learn "Real Americans" live in all 50 states and the cities within......

Sarah Palin's book tour came through my city the other day and I scooted over to the mall, looking to get an autograph and a handshake.
RogueBeast
Maybe Obama can direct her to the other 7 states of the 57 he bragged about campaigning in.
hfb1053
Man, I sure hope she's a no show. After what happened at Ft Hood, we need to be far more sensitive to our troops both on home soil and away.
wiseone
Any venue that represents the Government would not have a talking head speak that is associated with hate groups. That's a no-brainer. The military is a diverse non-political organization. The Commander-in Chief is the president. After Sarah makes her millions, she will be happy. She couldn't wait until her governor term expired. Soon she will ride off into the sunset with every $24.00 you paid for 413 pages of gossip. She may not be smart, but she sure is slick.
Willow207
Then your ocomments would explain how Palin was able to launch an attack on Sen. John Kerry, a military vet, during her 08 cheerleading seesion on a military base -- to members of the military about to engage in battle in Afghanistan and Iraq????? No one at that base told her "Put a sock in it" or demanded an apology from her for inappropriate conduct on a military facility.
Hats off to the officers of Fort Bragg who put the well being of soldiers over the economic profits of Palin and Harper Colllins!
dooreen
That I think is a good description. I think she is possibly winding people up, like a person would who is possibly an evangelistic tv star, possibly similar to the ending speech that Bush gave, when he landed in Texas, reminded me of that tone. I don't think that tone is good on a base, especially when it is war time, the divisive tone is not good for the military. Look at Fort Hood. And isolated person like that can possibly get more wound up, than a well adjusted one.
tolatetocry
The ARMY is scared SARAH wll turn FT BRAGG into a TEAPARTY! Gateway Pundit has pictures of the long lines of people who waited all night to see SARAH! Bambi doesn't seem to be real popular there!
BasPos
You are so dumb. It's against all of our military policy to be political. When will you wingnuts learn?
Honchos
"Bambi doesn't seem to be real popular there!"
So you're implying that Dumbo is?
(Sorry, I try to avoid the childish name calling but that was just too easy to resist.)
nachi1
Palin, that embarrassment to all things feminine, is a stench in the nostrils of the very word, "decency."
tolatetocry
The Daily Beast reports that a Ft Bragg official says sales of Sarah Palin's book are weak at Ft. Bragg. AS thousands line up and spend night waiting to meet Palin! Who's the bigger DA, officials at Ft Bragg or TDB writer?
BasPos
They're up early for PT;-)
Honchos
I'm no Sarah P. fan but if she had a booksigning near me and I had the time and nothing better to do I sure as heck would go pick up an autographed copy. They're going for $75-$100 on ebay. I've got no problem with parting fools from their money.
BuckHuit
It would be typical for christer nut-job Sarah Palin
to use the US military morons as a "photo-op."
And it would be typical for the US military morons
to have a "tea party" uprising in an open revolt
against an African-American President.
christer nut-job Sarah Palin hates blacks as much as she hates jews.

Maybe Palin could read this blog and be shocked that some of the simple hate-filled, jealous liberals here know several words that are longer than four letters.
nortonclybourn
It is well documented that she scours much more obscure blogs than this to read what people are thinking of her. Otherwise, I wouldn't bother. Maybe she can have her lawyer send off some more letters than threaten people exercising their First Amendment rights with lawsuits.
Me first! Sue me!
MaliciousDisorder
Yeah ! this is Obama's tragedy. No lookie-loo's in his parade. Mr. Teleprompter excluded.
