Sounds like sour grapes to me. What about all of the book deals for the Clintons, the Carters - and all of that. With celebrity (in any sort) comes opportunity. Book publishers know that the “buzz” alone will sell enough books to make them money - regardless of what the book is about. Too bad you liberals never see your own hypocrisy.

The Carnival of Satire (#63)…

Welcome to The Carnival of Satire at The Skwib. We have a fine selection of satire this week, ranging from social etiquette, to politics, to nose-picking. (Though some may argue those last two are the same thing.) We hope you enjoy all the gold-lass…

Tim, I too recall reading some time ago that Jenna graduated with an education degree, but was working at a teacher’s aide level because of a qualificaitons shortfall. So either she subsequently became a full-fledged teacher, or USNews.com got it wrong.

I thought she never got a teaching job because she didn’t meet daddies No Child Left Behind qualifications?

Jeez, Mad, that’s awful. No, of course, not your limerick… that’s perfect, and right on target, as usual. I mean Jenna’s pretense of being an author; that’s what’s awful. Good grief.

OT, have you run across watertiger’s post and photo titled “Sittin’ in the Dock at the Hague”? A few dozen posts down the comment thread, darkblack fleshes it out with a very respectable parody of the obvious Otis Redding song.
