Sarah Palin: A Champion For Big Oil Our guest bloggers are Daniel J. Weiss, a Senior Fellow and Director of Climate Strategy at the Center for American Progress Action Fund, and James Kvaal, a Senior Fellow at the Center for American Progress Action Fund. sarah.jpgWith the choice of Gov. Sarah Palin (R-AK) as his running mate, Sen. John McCain (R-AZ) is not backing down from oil drilling. Palin is a champion for drilling, the Bush-Cheney approach to energy policy that brought us $4.00-per-gallon gasoline and the rising threat of global warming. Like McCain, Palin believes that oil drilling is the only solution to our energy problems. I beg to disagree with any candidate who would say we cant drill our way out of our problem, she says. She supports more drilling in protected areas of the Outer Continental Shelf and the Alaska Natural Wildlife Refuge, once attacking McCain for his close-mindedness on ANWR. But the Department of Energy believes that offshore drilling would not have a significant impact on domestic crude oil and natural gas production or prices before 2030. Moreover, about three-quarters of all the oil in public lands in the continental US are already open to drilling and yet only one quarter of this oil is under production. Opening the Arctic Refuge would cut gasoline prices by two cents in 17 years. For that, Palin would destroy the home of Americas native polar bears. Not even T. Boone Pickens still thinks we can drill our way out of this crisis. Palin …
Palin is the very definition of CORRUPT and her taunting chant of “drill baby drill” is the nail in the coffin of her hopes for future political office.
Good riddance.
How’s that drill-baby-drill thingy working for you Sarah Fail’n, air headed Vanna White wanna be, half-finished governor, shot gun wedding gone bad, queen of dingbats? When is America going to wake up and figure out this moose shit for half-brains, quitter governor, who talks in fear mongering platitudes smacking of sophomoric valley girl jabs, tweaked in urban legend logic, is a complete IDIOT?
@taog2000able
only thing palin and her unwed teenage, slut daughter know how to blow doesn’t produce oil…..
How’s that “drill baby drill” thingy workin’ for ya? Haven’t heard Sarah brag about her expertise as an (ex) oil State governor lately. Guess she howls with the wolves and once the wolves pull in their tails, Lady La La Land keeps cool and in hidiong for a while.
Sarah Palin is a national joke, and a political liability. I hope she keeps her BS coming long enough to completely sink the GOP. Tea Party anyone?
Thank god we repealed the law that put caps on how much private companies can contribute. De-regulate. Drill Baby Drill. Our country is full of the corrupt and stupid people.
Hey Sarah; hows that “Drill Baby Drill” mantra working out for you lately? You’ve been awfully quiet. You Betcha.
Only when the last tree has died
and the last river been poisoned
and the last fish been caught
will we realise we cannot eat money.

Gallows for all of them
@taog2000able – no but with idiotic goofy bitches like palin as governors, it’s lucky the entire planet isn’t an entire oil spill. Now, fuck off.
It’s sad how corrupt and greedy these companies are, yet they have all the power and influence in the world.
of course Exxon skimped on safety measures. they were’s required to have them. Just like BP and this recent spill. they COULD have spent the money to have a failsafe.
Just goes to show that these compaies have no motivation to do whats right. they have to be required to do it.
I wonder how many oil puppets are choking on their own words now with the gulf spill.
Clean fuels now!
@ground5443 hows that drill, baby, drill thing workin out for ya : ))
@taog2000able No Palin is just part of the problem And not part of the solution,The vid was made right before the presidential election but Palin’s ties to alaskan oil has been documented. SPILL BABY SPILL!!
Screw all of you people who would call me a tree hugger because I care for our planet. Look what this insane drilling did to us now. People suck, animals rule.
Drill, baby, drill?
Fuck You.
Did Palin blow up the rig? I thought the blow out preventer failed. Palin stop blowing up our rigs.
Oh yeah Sarah…..U said “Drill Baby, Drill” !!! Well now that they are drilling in our coast, and we have a Disaster In the Coasts of Louisiana…..How Do you like it Now ???…. Ignorant Racist Pin Head!! I bet you she is going to pay out of her own pocket to clean the disaster!
@ddean1987 I don’t think there ever was.The public was by and large never really told about what’s in the vid to years later.Most of the mainstream media went with the drunken sea captain story.
was there ever a boycott on exxon gas? cuz they way they handled the valdez situation was horrible.
