Going Rogue on Rogue

Not that everybody else hasn't posted this by now, so consider this a show of solidarity with the Palinistas. Gateway Pundit reports:

Sarah Palin made a surprise appearance on “The Tonight Show with Conan O’Brien” on Friday — and turned the tables on actor William Shatner.

In recent appearances on the late-night television show, Shatner has adopted a serious pose and recited some of Palin’s less serious observations.

He was brought out again Friday to read passages from Palin’s blockbuster “Going Rogue.” The carefully selected passages included ones about rapper Kid Rock and stalking sheep.

Afterward, it was Palin’s turn to read from Shatner’s autobiography ...

... and that's when it got interesting. Allahpundit of Hot Air put it best: “Somewhere Chris Matthews is watching this and thinking, in all seriousness, ‘She can read’.” Fortunately, Shatner is gracious in defeat, so he gets the Tip of the Black Hat for this week.

All the same, we're keeping an eye on him.

Raison D’Etre

  • “Our entire daily lives cannot be occupied with purely religious practices; all of us have to eat, and most of us have and want to do many other activities besides. So though we cannot always be religious in this sense, we can always be Catholic, that is, the round of our daily activities can be conducted in such a way as to express and be in harmony with our Faith. And [this] can involve more than avoiding sin and exercising virtue.”

    Thomas Storck,
    The Catholic Milieu
