Ghost Writer Wanted, and Other GOP Whackjobbery
The whackjobbery on the extremist right wing includes the improbable and the stunningly stupid today. We’ve got the makings of a Sarah Palin publishing empire, if she can hire enough ghost writers willing to live a few months in Alaska, and a series of Republicans abusing Godwin’s Law and Biblical interpretation to attack Americans.

1. If Caribou Barbie doesn't write it herself, it will be worthless
The word vomit with screwed up syntax, grammar, and all the disconnects in her speech is what makes it so funny to listen to. Ghost writers will clean it up and make it grammatically correct, so everyone will know it wasn't her doing the writing.

Don't bother Sarah.

2. You may be right
They should get Tina Fey's writer, Sarah Palin, to ghost write the book. It could become a cult hit!
