Sanford Book Canceled In Wake Of Whole Gal-Nailing Thing
By "mutual decision," publisher Sentinel (an imprint of Penguin) and South Carolina Gov. Mark Sanford have decided not to publish Sanford's book on fiscal conservatism. The decision was made after editors at Sentinel read the governor's e-mails to his Argentinian ladyfriend.
"That shit was too fucking florid for Harlequin, even," said a Sentinel employee speaking under the condition of anonymity. "You really think people want to hear about how 'the fire in my loins convinced me not to plunge my state's quivering rod into the dusky pool of the stimulus'? Fuck no." Governor Sanford had no comment, but is currently working on what his agent calls "a rambling, unfocused monologue that will make readers intermittently cringe and cover their eyes." Critics expect that book to be better than Eat, Pray, Love, because, really, what wouldn't be?
'the fire in my loins convinced me not to plunge my state's quivering rod into the dusky pool of the stimulus'
The next governor of the State of California.
His worldwind travelogue is still on though, right?
"My Deflationary Cycle"
Let's hope the fire in his loins is code and not some funky South American STD…
If it includes the tit-sucking implied on the cover I'll buy it.
I'm sorry. I just tried. But I can't come to a Republican.
Sanford has a hot story but no book deal. How long can THAT last?
