Sarah Palin Goes Whole Hog on American Chopper

If there's one thing Sarah Palin likes, it's the great outdoors, as seen from a snowmobile, a helicopter, a motorcycle…pretty much anything with a motor and a spot you can shoot from.

Thus, it was a summit made in nature-crunching hell when the galoots from American Chopper brought their gear, guts and that disturbing mustache to the office of Alaska's hottest governor.

The occasion? Paul Teutul Sr. is building a chopper to commemorate Alaska's 50 years of statehood. Despite the stench of an obvious PR move (and his refusal to take the hint that it's a "snow machine"), Palin welcomes the biker boss, who for some reason wears his shades throughout the meeting. Make of that what you will.

One question: Did Palin kill that couch herself?
