While waiting for America's publishers to find their nerve, I had put my research into the authorship of Barack Obama's 1995 memoir Dreams From My Father on the back shelf. But then I heard Chris Matthews.
The Hardball host was weighing in on the subject of Sarah Palin's new book deal. "Sarah Palin - now don't laugh - is writing a book," sneered Matthews. "Not just reading a book, writing a book."
"Actually in the word of the publisher she's "collaborating" on a book," Matthews continued. "What an embarrassment! It's one of these ‘I told you,' books that jocks do. You know she's already declared, I mean, why they do it like this? ‘She can't write, we got a collaborator for her.'"
I dedicate what follows to Matthews and those willfully blind souls like him. It is a work in progress, a collective one at that, aided and abetted by nearly a score of volunteer co-conspirators from Hawaii to Ohio to Israel to Australia. The thesis is simple enough: Barack Obama needed substantial help to write his 1995 memoir, Dreams From My Father. Moreover, unlike Sarah Palin, Obama chose to conceal the identity of his collaborator and not without good reason. To admit that he needed a collaborator would have undercut his campaign for president and to reveal the name of that collaborator would have ended it...

So who wrote the hyena’s book?
One more comment: Please forward this to friends and contacts in the media. This should be treated as an important story. Thanks.
Why is it funny if Sarah Palin or anyone writes a book?
I know liberals will make fun of conservatives for any reason, or no reason, but have you ever heard a conservative say of a liberal “Believe it or not, he/she is writing a book?”
A Weatherman bomb-thrower ... I forget his name ....
Maybe World magazine should investigate it. The collaborator for Sarah Palin’s new book is one of the lead feature editors of World, which is in my opinion the best newsmagazine around these days

After last week’s announcement that Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin would pen a memoir to set the record straight about her personal and political life, HarperCollins revealed Thursday that WORLD Magazine Features Editor Lynn Vincent has been signed on as Palin’s collaborator.
The book, not yet titled, will be co-published by HarperCollins imprint Harper and HarperCollins-owned Zondervan and is scheduled for release in the spring of 2010.
During her 10 years as a senior writer and features editor for WORLD, Vincent has covered politics, culture, and hot-button social issues such as abortion for the biweekly news magazine. She has also specialized in narrative journalism.
Oh Nooooooooooo...not ayers? That ugly hippie who never grew up still wears his big red star in support of communism and still has earrings in both ears to signify he is bisexual-I guess. He is an incredible girl.
IMO Bill Ayres was 0’s ghostwriter. But I heard him say that any suggestion to that effect is “a lie” Thus, it couldn’t possibly be true!/s;)
There once was a boy child named Barry
whose Papa was drunken and scary.
His mom married twice
so she put him on ice.
Poor Grandman — ‘twas all she could carry.
“Poor grandma”
There have been articles about this before. There is a good bit of evidence to suggest that Bill Ayers wrote for Obama.
Bill Ayers?
I sell books as a sideline and if Sarah’s teaming up with Zondervan, it’s gonna be GOLD.
Go, Sarah!
Of course, Mr. Transparency, over and over again, has nothing to hide! /sarc
When BO peers into the teleprompter...is it the face of Bill Ayers peering back?
You can always find liberal books at the dollar stores because even liberals don’t want to (or can’t) read them. The last time I went to the the Dollar Tree store they had dozens of Al Franken’s book there. They only cost a dollar and still they don’t sell well. LOL.

Chris Mathews is a sub human. I sure would like to meet him o a dark night.
Were you saying this a year ago?
Bill Ayers with help from Ted Sorenson.
Gee, sounds like it might have to be handled in a novel. Sometimes the truth is too hot to handle any other way.
The first time I saw “The One” I thought he was a Farrakhan trained goon.
Dreams of Becoming Rich by Writing a Book of Fiction
If it were anything even half-assed, the MSM would be touting it as the greatest thing since sliced bread. That gives one the idea how crappy his work must have been.

Oh, you don't get the joke?The joke is that every Democratic presidential candidate is a genius, and every Republican presidential candidate is . . . well, you know, a bit slow . . .
Including the "amiable dunce" who wrote more than any other modern president, and whose writings have been edited into a book:
And famously, of course, Dan Quayle. And of course we know that Al Gore was a genius and George W. Bush was a dolt - the former's flunking out of seminary and the latter's Harvard MBA to the contrary notwithstanding.
- Reagan, In His Own Hand:
- The Writings of Ronald Reagan that Reveal His Revolutionary Vision for America
The trope, which Ann Coulter ridiculed in, I think it was Slander, is a staple of the propaganda campaign against any conservative.
