Big crowds are being urged to flood the openings of The Undefeated, the movie about former Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin's political rise, the latest indication that the 2008 vice presidential nominee is still looking for a signal from the public that it wants her to run for president.
In a blast email, "Team Sarah" asked supporters to start buying tickets to premiers in cities like Indianapolis, Orlando and Phoenix. "You can be the spark that becomes a grassroots revolution helping to ignite, solidify, inform, and unify Americans around the values that Sarah Palin represents, and, frankly, it isn't that terribly hard!," said the email. "Team Sarah wants to see "The Undefeated" become a BIG success and we are treating this like OPENING DAY in a long battle to promote the VALUES we see that Sarah Palin represents! But, we need to ACT! Please don't waste time."
Palin has been showing the movie in Iowa and a few other places, but supporters feel that having a successful opening will prove that she remains politically relevant and influence her decision to run for the White House.
A message to all members of Team Sarah:
Team,

The Undefeated needs strong attendance to roll out across the country in subsequent weeks. Your fellow Americans DESERVE to see this movie just like you did. Strong attendance, we believe, will also send a strong message to the liberal media elites and their political cronies- that Americans are hungry for REAL leaders who can navigate tough storms instead of sound-biting their way along to pander for votes or media support.

Oh, you didn't write this is post #88...
"You’re a liar. Its a documentary, dumbass. There are no “writing” credits."
Because, it really looked to me that it was from you.
Keep it classy, sweetie.
Its hard to believe people who say they’re conservative (and Christian) would be so obnoxious towards other conservatives. It leads me to think they’re not who or what they say they are.
Many fiscal conservatives do not like Christians...period.
Just show me the link. Show me any link that gives Sarah Palin a writing credit for "Undefeated". And shove all your "Have a nice day" nonsense.
For what it’s worth, IMDB gives Palin a writing credit for the movie. Until the credits roll, however, I wouldn’t be 100%.

That would 'splain a lot. pissant envy. With the 'godfather' on probation, all of the lesser capos are fighting for the title?
It doesn’t even open till the 15th and the only credit I’ve seen was the inspiration of her writings in her book.
I think that will be the limit of her credit. Don’t know if that “pays” or not.
Palin approached the guy who did the movie about making short films about herself, he decided to make the short films into a movie. It was her idea, he just took it a step further. I believe it is her strategy to use this to side-step the entire nomination process. I see it as her trying to pull a fast one. It’s just a propoganda tool. It’s glorifying her record, because in my opinion, Palin is one of the biggest horn tooters and exaggerators of all time. Pay attention, she loves using those buzz words. I’m wary of people who make a career out of using buzz words. This propoganda flick is just an extension of that.
There may have been a licensing fee for any quotes from the book or she could have just given written permission and waved any fee. In the credits it would appear as an “acknowledgment” or in the “Thank You” list. I would bet anything on her not sitting down at the computer and writing the movie.
Yes you know it all and the rest of us are naive. Thanks for letting us know.
How 'bout if you "Pay attention" to your own pathetic "buzz words".
I don't fault anyone who tries to fight back against the leftist propaganda machine that controls the minds of people who refuse to educate themselves and will buy anything if its repeated to them enough times.
Support her or don't, but I really do not understand the hatred for this woman when she would be celebrated and adored if she was anything but an evangelical Christian, pro-life conservative.
OK, catching my breath and calming down now. So let me get this straight. I want you to show me a case, just one, from any state of the 57 states in the Union, where the timing was such that an ethics violation was first recognized (and then charged) after the state officer left office. This shouldn’t be that hard. Lots of other states have ethics laws, you know. Lots and lots of state officers have become former state officers. Statistically, it is incredibly likely that one or more of them ran afoul of their state ethics code while in office, but no one figured it out till they left office.
So what you're telling me, what you are asking us all to believe, is that in over 200 years of American history, in all 58 states, you can't find a single political screw-up whose ethics foul-up was both caught and charged against him/her after they left office, right? Because I’m in Illinois, and I can point you to plenty of gubernatorial ethics code mishaps that happened to officers of this state during their term of office, and some of these officers you know by name. But only such mishaps as were discovered during their term of office were ever held against them. Legally, that is.
….. so help me out here, really, ‘cause I’m really struggling to understand you. If I say that “A” happens all the time, and “Not A” never happens, so “Not A” probably won’t happen in the future, all else being equal, then that’s not a variation on Aristotle’s law of non-contradiction, that’s arguing … from a negative? Then what argument is there, pray tell, that uses binary logic to force a conclusion, which is not at some point an argument from the negative, according to you? You have made your “negative” so broad it swallows everything.
Well, hey, you can hide behind an allegation of negative proof if you like. I don’t blame you. You have no case, so you have to hide somewhere. No harm no foul. :)
Anyway, I think it might actually help if you took a look at the Applicability clause from the ethics statute. I know you're not a lawyer (we have established that beyond a reasonable doubt), but I’m sure you can see how AS 39.52.910 precludes application of the chapter in question (i.e., 39.52, the Ethics Act) to former officers of the state, unless specific provision to the contrary is made. If you have any commentary on that section, I’m all ears. Oh, and please do integrate into your explanation the blatant carve-out in section AS 39.52.250 that explicitly extends applicability to former officers for the singular purpose of an advisory opinion, exactly as AS 39.52.910 requires.
Otherwise, I’m getting dizzy holding my breath while I wait for you to present your example in case law of an ethics violation, from any of the 59 states, being first recognized (and then charged) after the state officer left office. There really could be one, and I have missed it. It is your duty, as a brother FReeper, to save me from myself, and find me that one case that proves beyond doubt your fantasmigorical theory of permanent, eternal, everlasting liability for ethics offenses of a state officer. Such burdens mortals bear…..
Chirrup, chirrup….
Chirrup, chirrup….
(gasping for breath, can’t hold out much longer …)
Chirrup, chirrup….
Hey, if you’re going to attack me personally, at least do it from the front....Yeesh. Y’know, I can’t square you with your home page. I like that guy. But this ...
It seems like wtc911’s difficulty is that there is the law, and then there is how the law is actually applied.
These are not necessarily completely congruent.
A former law enforcement officer should probably understand this—there is a certain amount of discretion involved in law enforcement. Not everyone driving over the speed limit gets pulled over for speeding, for instance.
What you, SR, seem to be saying, is that the convention where ethics complaints aren’t brought against former office holders is kind of like the convention where law enforcement officers don’t generally pull someone over for speeding in many places around the country, as long as the speeder is driving no more than 5 mph over the limit.
It doesn’t conform exactly to the letter of the law, but it’s how it’s done in practice.
Is that what you’re trying to communicate?
Laddie 911, I asked the folks at The Undefeated (via Twitter) if Palin stood to make any money from ticket and/or DVD sales. They replied that she would not.
Have a nice day sweetie...stay classy.
B) If palin(™) receives a writing credit (which she does) then why shouldn't she get paid? I would expect her to.
b) I'm only assuming now, but is Palin's 'writing credit' due to the fact that this documentary uses excerpts from her books, speeches, etc.? Sort of like when a song is used in a movie. The composer/performer gets 'credit' for it.
