As I listened to Sarah Palin's Energy Policy proposal this morning I noticed a few things. First, I was sickened to see her wearing this polar bear broach as if she cares about these endangered animals.
Alaskan Gov. Sarah Palin, sued the Bush Administration in federal court recently, charging it was too accepting of climate change studies which overstated the phenomenon's impact on polar bears. The result, she argued, would be a negative impact on her state's businesses, including oil and gas extraction. Palin backed her argument by hiring scientists who were negative towards global warming while the scientists were receiving funding for their studies from the oil and gas companies including Exxon-Mobil.
As a person who donates monthly to Polar Bear Protection, I am nauseated seeing this woman Palin parading herself on a stage with this pin as if she cares about polar bears at all. Palin cares about Polar Bears about as much as she cares about the Aerial killing of Wolves which she gives $150.00 bounty for a paw. Palin would rather protect Caribou and Moose which are over populating areas of the North than allow the wolves to regulate their population as natural predators thereby interfering in the natural ecosystem and pecking order of nature. Hunting is one thing, extinction of an entire species is another.
