Ah Sweet Justice-Author writing about Palin moves next door to her
(She been driving us crazy, now Joe McGinnis is returning the favor)

Sarah Palin has taken to her Facebook page to complain about her new neighbor -- a writer penning a book about her.

Author Joe McGinniss has taken up residence in a house next to Palin's lakeside home in Wasilla.

McGinniss previously wrote a critical expose on Palin and her natural gas pipeline plan for the Conde Nast publication Port- folio last year, and is planning a book about the former Alaska governor and GOP vice presidential candidate. It's tentatively titled "Sarah Palin's Year of Living Dangerously" and could be on the shelves in the fall of 2011.

"Yes, that Joe McGinniss. Here he is about 15 feet away on the neighbor's rented deck overlooking my children's play area and my kitchen window," Palin posted on Facebook late Monday, hours after returning from a trip to the Lower 48 and learning of McGinniss' presence.

"We're sure to have a doozey to look forward to with this treasure he's penning. Wonder what kind of material he'll gather while overlooking Piper's bedroom, my little garden, and the family's swimming hole?" she wrote.

McGinniss is renting the place "for the next five months or so," Palin wrote.

2. Damn, Sarah. Are you implying he's a pedophile looking into Piper's bedroom, or
is she the next unwed teenage mother in training?

5. Nice. Use your kids (again), now to prop up implications he's a pedophile.

11. Her pattern of bringing pedophilia into many stress situations makes one wonder...
just what went on in her family when SHE was young? Her behaviors seem to fit a particular profile,

6. So anyone renting the house next door could look into
Piper's bedroom and she hasn't in all that time put up blinds or curtains? She's just trying to make the guy sound like a purvert...

8. Here's what isn't said about this whole story.
Why are the owners of the neighoring house renting it out?

Why aren't they living in the house? Do they not want to live next door to the Palins? Can they not sell it because of the neighbors?

Think about it. Other than an idiotic tea bagger, who the hell would want to live next door to this nutty woman and her family?

from renting the place, next.

10. Joe McGinnis
This guy is the real deal.
He wrote "Fatal Vision" a true story about Jeffery McDonald the military doctor who (allegedly) killed his wife and family and blamed it on acid crazed hippies.

AND

He also penned "Going to Extremes" one of the best books ever written about Alaska.
From Amazon.com...

"This is the fourth edition of a work that always has been controversial in Alaska. Yet, it is an important and highly readable classic work that captures a portrait frozen in time of a raw state in turmoil during the oil boom. McGinnis went north to find out if there was anything left of the 'last frontier.' He found 'mind-bending contradictions,' as a previous publisher put it--greed, waste, addictions, and racism, among other things, that contrasted with an awesome untamed natural beauty and an honest, open, and independent spirit of the people".

I've read this book multiple times and it's on my top 5 list for "deserted island" books.
