______________ Both of the articles you cited were not able to be read fully via your links - though the excerpt indicates thoughtful insights into those often volatile subjects.
Did you actually read the articles you linked - and if so, how?
If not, it would appear you have been caught in clear dishonesty within this very thread.
Perhaps you should apologize and move on?
Your call.....
Here is exerpt that was available to be viewed...sounds like an intelligent and compassionate author to me...

Black genocide
Abortion Present: African-Americans are fighting the high toll of abortion in their own community by developing compassionate alternatives
Lynn Vincent
Alabama State University (ASU), a historically black college, is planted near the west side of the capital city of Montgomery, a birthplace of the civil-rights movement. The campus sits at the edge of a major housing project. Or as Tijuanna Adetunji puts it: "It's in the 'hood."
That made it the perfect place for Adetunji, 38, who grew up in the Montgomery projects herself, to share her message on African-Americans and the true nature of abortion.
Earlier this year, an ASU professor invited Adetunji to address her students on the topic. "The professor knew some of her students had faced, or were facing, crisis pregnancies," said Adetunji, a pastor's wife who has lately assumed the mantle of pro-life activist. "She wanted a way to get them some help in making better decisions, better choices."

The only one here by the way that is a Ideological cone head is you. You have failed to point out what she has done that is so significant that I should go out and buy a $20 or whatever priced book that is over 400 pages. Not only should I spend my money but my time which free time is tougher to come by during college.
Being a failed mayor does not qualify to me something so important that I should read about it. Neither does being a lying senator from Alaska (A la Bridge to Nowhere) and quitting on the people who voted for you 2 years early so you can run in 2012.
I do hope she runs in 2012. That way she will be eaten alive politically and it won't even be by the Democrats. No no no, it will be by her fellow Republicans who will call her a quitter and every other name they can think of. Then you'll have no one to blame but your fellow Republicans for bashing her.

Rep Power: 55 | | I can repost - just like you, Sinatra - this time not cutting off the whole quote.
If you have a problem, take it up with the conservatives at Little Green Footballs.
As for your ridiculous screed, nothing I say will make a dent in your thick Palinized skull, so I leave it to the other posters to judge the character of the person who is actually writing Palin's book:
--------------
When the people at Little Green Footballs pan a conservative, you know it's a flakefest festival!
<snip> "...A reminder of Robert Stacy McCain’s feelings on the subject of interracial marriage. “[T]he media now force interracial images into the public mind and a number of perfectly rational people react to these images with an altogether natural revulsion. The white person who does not mind transacting business with a black bank clerk may yet be averse to accepting the clerk as his sister-in-law, and THIS IS NOT RACISM, no matter what Madison Avenue, Hollywood and Washington tell us.” UPDATE at 9/29/09 8:03:30 pm:
Here’s Lynn Vincent claiming that abortion is Black genocide.
And here’s Lynn Vincent arguing in favor of creationism: Science vs. science. UPDATE at 9/29/09 8:45:45 pm: If you’re going out shopping for a ghostwriter, how hard is it to find reputable people without extremist views and associations? There are thousands of people who could have done this job. Sarah Palin picked one who is an extreme anti-abortion creationist, associated with an open white supremacist.
Bad judgment doesn’t even begin to describe this."  Little Green Footballs - Sarah Palin's Book Ghostwritten by Associate of White Supremacist McCain

The only books from a politician I have read is Churchill's entire collection because they were a gift. Those were also worth a great read because they gave insight into a interesting man in one of the most interesting time periods in history. Palin's book offers none of that and few books about politicians do today.

This should be fun!  Lynn Vincent is a professional ghost writer, dumbfuck. She gets paid to provide professional writing skills to celebrities of all types, since being someone people might want to hear from doesn't necessarily make a person William Shakespeare.
Seriously, don't you ever get tired of your entire life being an epic fail?

This should be fun!  I guess you missed the part where Obama did not write his books either, right? Or is that just DIFFERENT. Ohh wait, now I am a racist cause I said something about Obama.

Apparently Sinatra is unfamiliar with Robert Stacy McCain.

Enjoy! The woman is a professional ghost writer dumb ass. Or is it your contention now that people you disagree with should not be allowed to write books and use ghost writers? You liberal turds should learn to respect the 1st Amendment.

Palin's book already a best-seller before release
By HILLEL ITALIE (AP) – 1 hour ago
NEW YORK — Move over, Dan Brown. Sarah Palin is on top of the charts.
Just two days after HarperCollins announced that Palin's "Going Rogue" had been moved up from the spring to Nov. 17, preorders Wednesday night for the former Alaska governor's memoir made it No. 1 on both Amazon.com and Barnes & Noble.com.
Among the books "Going Rogue" is outselling: Sen. Ted Kennedy's "True Compass," Mitch Albom's "Have a Little Faith" and Brown's "The Lost Symbol," his first novel since "The Da Vinci Code" and, perhaps until now, the year's most anticipated release.
Palin, in collaboration with author Lynn Vincent, completed her 400-page book just four months after agreeing to terms with HarperCollins, which plans a first printing of 1.5 million copies. It's the first book by Palin, the 2008 Republican vice presidential candidate and Alaska governor until suddenly resigning last summer.
She is regarded as a possible 2012 contender for the presidency. Past candidates, notably Barack Obama, have been helped by writing best-selling books, invaluable platforms for politicians to tell their story. The Associated Press: Palin's book already a best-seller before release

With Two Months to Go, Palin Book Reaches No. 2 on Amazon List
Susan Davis reports on politics.
Still two months before its Nov. 17 release, Sarah Palin’s autobiography “Going Rogue: An American Life” has already hit the No. 2 spot on Amazon.com’s bestseller list. She’s sandwiched between Dan Brown’s “The Lost Symbol” in the #1 slot, but ahead of Glenn Beck’s “Arguing with Idiots: How to Stop Small Minds and Big Government.”
Palin is also taking the top slot on Barnes & Noble’s bestseller list, ahead of Mitch Albom’s “Have a Little Faith.”
The former Alaska governor’s 400-page book was completed just four months after she inked the book deal with HarperCollins, and has an initial 1.5 million print run—the same number given to “True Compass,” the autobiography of the late Sen. Edward Kennedy of Massachusetts. HarperCollins is a unit of News Corp. as is Dow Jones & Co., publisher of The Wall Street Journal. (Palin's book is now #1) With Two Months to Go, Palin Book Reaches No. 2 on Amazon List - Washington Wire - WSJ
Try not to get too many of the pages stuck together after your copy arrives. Another stellar troll post by one of the board trolls. Thanks for reminding us of your ignorance, stupidity and your great skill as a troll. And you have a red name, taking Jillian's place as head board troll, are you?

How many posts before you claim we are all racists and terrorists as well?

I don't have any talking points spoon fed to me. The facts are simply that, sorry if it doesn't jive with you. You also fail to see the irony in saying I would learn something other than "Talking Points spoon fed to me" which is exactly what would happen if I read this book.
Sarah Palin in my honest opinion has done nothing significant that I would care to read about. But Obama had before becoming the worst President since Carter?
