This is one way in which we could get our message across.

I bet when Sarah Palin farts, she blames it on Trig.

Rip off the mask, Palingates!

Ozmud from Oz Mudflats has written an excellent blog about the description of Trig's birth in "Going Rogue":

Baby Trig’s Birth: Revisited

The religious publication "First Things" has written a highly interesting and VERY LONG review about "Going Rogue".

CLICK HERE FOR THE REVIEW

The first paragraph:

I have defended Sarah Palin on numerous occasions against critics. I thought some conservatives turned on her too soon and that her executive experience outweighed any negatives known about her. I certainly did not think flubbing some interviews made her unfit to be a chief executive.

The last three paragraphs:

Sadly, I now believe the burden of proof has shifted. While an excellent chief executive in Alaska, there is reason to believe that Palin lacks the intellectual skills needed to be an effective President. Most important, she does not seem to recognize this and shows no sign of getting them.

I have not given up on Palin and find much in her to admire, but she would not get my primary vote based on this book and what I know about her to date. I hope I am wrong and am open to changing my mind.

She has more promise than any Republican candidate I can name and I still have hopes for Sarah Palin, but hope needs substance or it becomes a disillusioned faith.

h/t goes to Bree Palin!

In the "First Things" review, the author refers to "this mother of Tripp" and then later "the mother of Trigg".

The author of the review in "First Things" has just admitted in the comments on his website that this was a typo.

Thanks, Patrick. He isn't the first to confuse the names and he won't be the last.
