Response to Vice President Biden's Comments Today About My Position On Energy Independence (Palin Be

Palin's Latest Facebook Note

As the vice president knows, I have always advocated an all-of-the-above approach to American energy independence. Among other things, my alternative energy goal for Alaska sits at 50 percent because Alaska reached more than 20 percent during my term in office. The Obama-Biden administration, on the other hand, recently announced a renewable goal of only 25 percent. However, domestic drilling should remain a top priority in order to meet America’s consumption and security needs.

The vice president’s extreme opposition to domestic energy development goes all the way back to 1973 when he opposed the Alaska pipeline bill. As Ann Coulter pointed out, “Biden cast one of only five votes against the pipeline that has produced more than 15 billion barrels of oil, supplied nearly 20 percent of this nation’s oil, created tens of thousands of jobs, added hundreds of billions of dollars to the U.S. economy and reduced money transfers to the nation’s enemies by about the same amount.”

This nonsensical opposition to American domestic energy development continues to this day. Apparently the Obama-Biden administration only approves of offshore drilling in Brazil, where it will provide security and jobs for Brazilians. This election is about American security and American jobs.

There’s one way to tell Vice President Biden that we’re tired of folks in Washington distorting our message and hampering our nation’s progress: Hoffman, Baby, Hoffman!

A fine quip ... which does nothing to actually address the energy question.

This is, unfortunately, typical of Ms. Palin's commentary. She's quick to say what she's against, but doesn't actually say what she's for.

Telling us what we already know about Biden doesn't help anybody.

So pony up, Sarah. You're evidently running for president, and you seem to be offering yourself as some sort of energy expert. So give us something to work with. Define your "all of the above" policy, and give us some details about how a Palin administration would pursue it.

Excellent reply.

Now, if Biden really wants to be the “sounding board” kind of Veep he says and wants to help his boss succeed, he better listen up and get to work convincing Obama that she’s right.

Yeah, like that will happen ;-)

I realize that many of us were critical of Palin for resigning her post as governor.

But it appears more and more all the time that she did indeed have an ulterior motive.

I was worried she’d fade into oblivion. Just the opposite is happening.

I consider her and Rush being in the news nearly constantly these days a victory.

If I may add to your excellent post: We have everything we need in this country to be self sufficient. Enough of this sending money abroad to countries that attack and kill us (Hi Saudi Arabia and China).

Get rid of the RIDICULOUS environmental regulations, and tell the USA haters out there: “F.Y., no more $$$ coming your way!”.

Very nice. “Hoffman, Baby, Hoffman” is a great money quote.

I wish a few more Republicans politicians could come up with comments like these she made here. That would at least be a good start.

I’m not sure what the title is,
but Michael Farris, of the HSLDA
had a lot to say about the
“accepted history book in academia”

which portrayed the founding and the founders in the most
horrible and negative manner possible,

and detailed all the bad things America has done throughout
its history. There is NO WAY I will send my kids into such
an academic environment.
