A Devestating Review of Trailblazer

On Amazon.Com D. Brady from Canton, Ohio posted this review of Trailblazer: An Intimate Biography of Sarah Palin.

"Like many intrigued by the emergence of Sarah Palin on the national scene, I looked forward to reading the anticipated books about Governor Palin's life and achievements.

Foolishly, I snapped up the first post-election book, Trailblazer: An intimate biography of Sarah Palin, by Lorenzo Benet. Never have I been so disappointed. Trailblazer is more anti-Palin stereotyping than anything else. It could have been written by someone in the Obama campaign or their surrogates on MSNBC, CNN, or any of the other Obama support groups.

I would not recommend this amateurish book to anyone other than the Obama people who are not interested in reality. The book is unorganized, poorly researched (I'm being charitable), and seems to be pure propaganda on a scale that would make Joseph Goebbels proud.

Benet goes so far as to feign disbelief in Palin's assertion, shared by many notwithstanding Al Gore's musings, that global temperatures are related to solar activity.

His analysis of the vice-presidential debate between Palin and the factually challenged Biden is farcical. Suffice it to say that he was watching a different debate than the one I watched. The number of errors made by Biden in that debate was staggering. Governor Palin made only one...mispronouncing general McKiernan's name. I could go on and on.

I will close by saying that anyone who wants to read an objective and factual account of Governor Palin should not waste their money on this deceptive book. One can obtain the same anti-Palin claptrap by watching the Keith Olbermann show and save their money in the process. Trailblazer: An intimate biography of Sarah Palin is neither intimate nor a biography."


I read this after several emails by readers warning me about the book. Thank you.

Yeah but only one new picture, though.

Bummer days, dudes.
