<\/a>Going Rogue: An American Life, Sarah Palin’s first book, became a best-seller before it even hit bookstores yesterday. But news reports about it’s inaccuracies are coming thick, including her creative interpretations of various pieces of legislation. Some members of the media are questioning if the book really belongs in the fiction section. Others point out that it is a rehashing of old enmities: the Daily News christened Sarah Palin “Complainer in Chief” for blaming John McCain, Katie Couric, and anyone but herself for last year’s failed campaign. Her high-profile resignation as Alaska Governor earlier this year, and the publication of her book is fueling speculation about her presidential aspirations for 2012. But a new CNN\/Opinion Research Poll on Monday found that only 28 percent of Americans think she is qualified to occupy the White House. Now, a new book by Nation Books has been released to coincide with the release of Palin’s memoir, called Going Rouge: An American Nightmare. Featuring Gloria Steinem, Michael T. Klare, Max Blumenthal, Katha Pollitt, Jessica Valenti, John Nichols, Jim Hightower, Naomi Klein, Eve Ensler, Juan Cole, and many others, Going Rouge, takes aim at Palin’s religion, party, and politics. <\/p>\n
