Going Rouge: The Sarah Palin Rogue Coloring & Activity Book
 
Sex, death, energy, power, politics, and heavy makeup -- it's all here!

after which illustration of a couple of pages

Yeah, yeah, we heard all about the Sarah Palin’s Book Going Rogue – An American Life to be launched on Nov 17th. They expect to move 1.5 million copies, and pre-orders have been brisk.

We couldn’t let that stand without a fight. There are two sides to every story, but let’s get something clear here – Sarah didn’t write this book either.

So we created an alternative: Going Rouge – The Sarah Palin Rogue Coloring and Activity Book, now available for pre-order, with a launch date of November 17th, just like that other shameless rot. But our book is chock full of mazes (like “Help Sarah find her way to the White House”), puzzles, word games, and brilliant illustrations to color or chuckle over as we mercilessly lampoon and parody everything Palin in 48 pages of hilarity.

C’mon, you don’t want to create the appearance that you condone or support Sarah Palin by purchasing crap you KNOW will be piled high in the $3 book bin in a few months, do you? Instead, order a classic, collectible Palin book – one that hasn’t even been colored in yet – one that’s not just a buncha words, it’s got pictures!

Now, I'm not sure, but I went to the link, and it appears to be one of the clanging cymbals primitive's entreprenaurial schemes, the "Symbolman" primitive's.

If anyone can confirm or disconfirm, please do so.

1. Just in time for Hanukkah. I'll take five.

The clanging cymbals primitive, who once had a good job with a federal agency, flying over and photographing the terrain of Alaska, but who then threw it all overboard (either that, or flunked a drug test) and decided to become a media journalist, losing his fancy house in Hawaii as a result:

3. Thanks for posting!

Symbolman and I have been hard at work creating this book, so we haven't logged on the DU much lately. Thanks so much for posting about it! We're hoping everyone enjoys the book and will want one. If you'd like an autographed copy, send us a note in the Paypal payment, and we'll gladly personalize it for you. DM me directly if you want bulk discounts or would like to resell the book. Support your local DUers, and help us pay our rent!

Here is the cover:

Okay, I'm not sure about this; is the demolishedbabe primitive the clanging cymbals primitive's wife?  I think so, but am not 100% confident.

4. Awesome! I had no idea it was you guys who did this!

Found it on Twitter.

Oh yeah right.

The Die alte Sau was asked by the clanging cymbals primitive to light this bonfire; it looks better than if the clanging cymbals primitive had done it himself.

Liar, liar, pants on fire.....

5. We're working day and night on this

And we've got a lot of really funny stuff!

We just put up the website, and haven't begun to promote, but we tweeted a little bit about it.

Stay tuned for more sample pages and more fun!

Nontheless, the cover is brilliant!

Love to do a bigger book than Sarah - that's too hilarious!

29. Kick

Man, one wonders why the demolished primitive sticks with the clanging cymbals primitive, even though he so thoughtlessly caused her to lose that great house in Hawaii (it had been under her name); the guy's such a loser.

Maybe he's good in bed or something with her; I can't think of any other possible reason.

Primitives hate America.  Primitives hate Palin.

Primitives hate capitalism.  Primitives wanna make a profit.

Primitives claim to be against hate.  Primitives consistently waddle in hatred.

Primitives claim to be against misogyny.  Primitives practive misogyny.

I could keep going, but there's too many to name.

One has to give them a little credit for showing some enterprising spirit. Unfortunately, they have done it by infringing on the good name of a conservative.

A good argument can be made that the title and release date are designed to deceive people intending to purchase the real Palin book.

I wonder how excited they will be when they get a cease and desist order?

So symbolman is peddling his semi-pornographic coloring books, complete with spirited exchanges between himself and excited potential customers, yet no one, no one at all, is the least bit interested in paranormal vampire sex crimes?  What is wrong with these people?

Wait I thought they were interdimensional time travelers too, and the main character is a rogue to boot.

It fits in every single genre.
