Rocky Mountain High!

Madame and First Dude in Montana!

Madame 45 had book tour stops in Montana and Colorado. I think that she is bringing Alaskan weather with her everywhere she goes. People in Montana waited outside in the cold in subzero temperature. Tonight, we were in Colorado. With all of the snow and the mountains, I would have thought I was back at home in Alaska! Madame met hundreds and hundreds of fellow rogues today. It was great. Madame met another cool conservative lady, Michelle Malkin! Thankfully, there were no crazies who threw food at Madame today!

I got to help Madame with a special article that is going to be published in tomorrow's Washington Post about Climategate. It was so much fun writing for a LSM publication instead of just on Facebook! Madame spoke out about the Great Opologizer and the Copenhagen conference putting politics ahead of sound science. She used a few of her signature words and phrases like "clobbered" and "cap and tax". She called for the Great Opologizer to boycott Copenhagen. Wow! I wonder how much carbon emissions could be saved if the Great Opologizer didn't fly over to Denmark.

We're off to Utah and Nevada tomorrow! Good times ahead.

A Rogue Tomato in Minnesota

We were in the Minnesota Mullet's home state for a book signing. Madame has had some shining moments here in the land of a thousand lakes. Remember this? While Madame was signing books books at the Mall of America, I spent the day riding the indoor roller coaster at the mall. During the signing, some looney liberal tossed a tomato at Madame, but he missed and hit a cop. Just like the Great Opologizer, this looney didn't have a very good arm.

Tonight, Madame is at a Republican fundraiser with perhaps the next Madame speaker, Michele Bachmann (she'd do a heck of a lot better job than Pukelosi). Just think of what the softy southpaws would think about these two ladies:



Even though Madame was super busy today, she did have time for us to do two Facebook postings. One was Madame's recognition of the anniversary of Pearl Harbor. She always remembers history and the American soldier. Madame also posted about the decision to allow some off shore drilling in Alaska. Wow, the Great Opologizer is allowing this?

Well, I'd better get to hibernating. Riding the roller coaster all day made me feel a little weird. I'll report more from our visit to Montana and Colorado tomorrow!

Going Rogue in the Heartland

Madame gave awesome and funny speech in D.C. last night. What's the difference between a hockey mom and David Letterboy? Clean humor and funny joke delivery. Today, Madame started her day by going to Walter Reed Medical Center to visit injured soldiers.

Then we headed to the heartland. First, we headed to Sioux City, Iowa. People seemed to make a big deal about this, saying things like "2012" and "caucuses". I think that people want to call her Madame 45 just like I do. Then we headed to Sioux Falls, South Dakota. A lot of people seem to think that Madame sounds like she is from the Dakotas.

Tomorrow, we're off to the Minnesota,where it all began for Madame at the RNC convention. I wonder if Madame will let me go shopping at the Mall of America while she signs books.

Madame Meets Virginia!

at the book signing in Virginia

Madame had a book signing in Virginia. Her supporters were hard core, with some of them waiting for hours in the snow. More than 2,000 people came to see Madame! Plus, the First Dude has been on the tour the past few days, which has made it particularly awesome!

I know that laptops really don't have much fashion sense. We all look pretty much the same. However, I must say that I absolutely loved Madame's outfit today. Her jacket and her hat were awesome!

Tonight, Madame spoke at the Gridiron Club, and boy was she funny! She could very easily take Tiny Fea's job!

Madame said that if VP Hairplugs wrote a book it would be called Going Rogaine. She also said that she could see the Russian embassy from D.C. You can check out some more of Madame's funny quotes here and here. I always knew that Madame was a hoot, but I'm glad that everyone else gets to see her humor too.

We're off to Iowa and North Dakota tomorrow. The softy southpaws know these places as "flyover country".

A Lonestar LOTUS

Madame signs a soldier's uniform at Ft. Hood

Madame 45 had two book signings today in Texas. I like Texas. I have some friends, who are calculators, who were invented down here. They are good guys.

Prior to the signings today and after I posted last night, Madame put up two more Facebook notes. One of them was to preemptively call out the crazies who might misconstrue something she said about the Great Opologizer.

The other post was a moving story about the American soldier. It is quite patriotic. If I had tear ducts, I would have cried.

First stop today was Plano. Madame must a bit of the Alaskan weather down with her because the Texans thought it was cold! It's that darn global warming?! Right Algore? The second stop was at Ft. Hood. Madame really appreciates the military. She donated the proceeds from this stop to the families of those who were killed in the shootings at Ft. Hood. She is one giving lady.

Tomorrow we are off to Virginia. Then, Madame is going to speak at the Gridiron Club in Washington D.C. with Bawney Fwank. Oh, that's going to be a hoot!

Going Rogue in the MidSouth

Madame signing books in Oklahoma

We've had a busy past two days! Yesterday, we were in the Show Me state. Madame visited Springfield, MO for a book signing. Sadly, Madame didn't let me go to the Bass Pro Shop while she was signing books. I wanted to see if they had any waterproof gear for LOTUSes. Maybe then I could go fishing with the family.

Madame also gave an awesome speech at the College of the Ozarks. Super early this morning we posted a Facebook post about the event with some pictures from the tour. Madame included her priorities in the title: faith, family, and freedom. These are the antithesis (I've been using my dictionary) to the Great Opologizer's priorities: me, myself, and I.

Today we traveled to Aw Shucksabee's homestate of Arkansas and to Oklahoma (where the winds come sweeping down the plains). Sorry, I downloaded the Oklahoma! soundtrack on Madame's itunes for the trip.

Tonight, we posted two posts on Facebook. One was a statement from Madame's lawyer, Thomas Van Fine ( he's not a bad looking guy, for a human). He shared some thoughts about the "ethics complaints" that some crazies threw at Madame while she was governor. The other post included Madame's thoughts on the climategate situation. Madame wants the real science not the snake oil science to be discussed. It was good stuff including some signature sarcasm. She told people it wasn't a sin against the earth to drive an SUV. Ha. Good one, Madame.

The BOTUS was busy today. You can check out her work here.

We'll be in Texas tomorrow. Yeehaw!

A Platinum Rogue in the Southwest

We were back on book tour today with stops in Arizona and New Mexico. I wanted Madame to put me on a corner with my itunes blaring so that I could sing along to "Take It Easy" by the Eagles as I would be standing on a corner in Winslow, Arizona. Madame told me that we would be in Tempe, Arizona. We also went to Roswell, New Mexico tonight! While Madame was signing, she gave me the role of UFO czar while I was hanging out on the bus. I didn't see anything though.

Madame wrote two Facebook posts today! She called out the LSM (Lamestream media) for their "story" about the fact that Madame sometimes has the need to fly on the book tour. Madame pulled out the sarcasm big time for this post. We even did something a little different in this post. We used an emoticon in the title! :) I love it when Madame uses her signature sarcasm. She did so on two instances in this post:

1)" What’s even funnier is that these same media outlets think it’s shocking that we stay in hotels. I guess they expected us to pitch a tent alongside the road. We love the great outdoors, but such an arrangement is hardly practical for a book tour. "

Madame, please don't even tease about that. I'm a city LOTUS. I'm not used to the outdoors!

2)" I’m truly humbled by the response to my book tour by everyday Americans, and if traveling by plane means that I can meet more of these wonderful people, I’ll travel by plane (or bus or train or canoe or dog sled or whatever it takes)."

I think that the LSM is just upset that the First Dude isn't driving Madame around on a snowmachine to get her between book stops. They might even be disappointed that she isn't traveling by helicopter so that she can do some aerial wolf hunting in between tour stops.

Madame also posted a note following the Great Opologizer's speech regarding his Afghan strategy. Madame was pretty diplomatic towards the guy, although she definitely wants to make victory the goal. The Great Opologizer doesn't like to use that word.

I must mention some other news from today. Madame went platinum. No, that doesn't mean that she's a blonde now. It does mean, though that Going Rogue has already sold over 1,000,000 copies! Wow! I feel so proud of Madame. I'm so glad that I got to be a part of that success.

We're off to Missouri for a book signing and Madame is giving a speech tomorrow. Good times are ahead!
