In addition to her frightening lack of qualification to be vice president (much less president) of the United States, Palin is an evangelical, anti-choice, pro-gun, right-wing conservative who wants creationism taught in schools.
Although in the past two years the Arctic summer sea ice shrunk to the lowest levels ever recorded, Palin apparently does not believe it is human-induced or cause for alarm.
Oil and gas drilling. Palin has supported oil and gas drilling plans anywhere in Alaska, including in the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge, the central Arctic, the entire Arctic Ocean, and in fish-rich Bristol Bay and Cook Inlet. On her watch, regulation and government oversight of Alaska oil facilities is terribly lacking, and she has declined to establish a citizens' advisory council to provide more effective public oversight of the expanding oil and gas operations in Arctic Alaska.
The pattern is clear. On the environment, Sarah Palin is essentially George W. Bush, Dick Cheney and perhaps James Watt rolled into one, but with a more pleasant demeanor.

Read the Top 7 Myths about Sarah Palin at www.foxnews. Palin said that creation should be able to be discussed. She didn't suggest it as a curriculum.

I wish all Americans were as wise as Governor Palin when it comes to hoaxes. Maybe all those Nigerian princes would quit sending out their wacky emails. Unfortunately...

She also wears fur and has a bearskin draped over the couch in the Governor’s office.
How wonderful!

Most of us. Not at all. All positive stances for the redoubtable Governor Palin.
But see the separate secular/libertarian/fraudulent FReeper troll wings of FR for dissent.

The thing the Left fails to realize is that Conservatives are better stewards of the environment.We are farmers, we are hunters, we fish, we camp, we hike. Who do they really think cares more about the land, us or a bunch of pot smoking hippies who are living in a tree partially to protest something but mostly because they didn't have the rent money and the tree is their new home.

Yeah, let’s all embrace Communism, which only gave us Chernobyl and the collapse of the Aral Sea.
