....
Palin and other state officials fear that listing the polar bears as endangered will cripple offshore gas and oil drilling and development.....
Palin does not care about the environment or preserving any endangered species.
Oil profits are her only concern.

Alaskans to receive $3,269 each

A way of giving money back to the citizens of alaska.
Palin backed it.

You just propped up Sarah Palin by trying to dis her.
Nice Job LOL :-)

Here is the first few paragraphs from the linked story:

-----
It's the season for Alaskans to be rewarded just for living here, and this year's take is extra sweet:$3,269, a record share of the state's oil wealth combined with a special cash payout to help with stratospheric energy prices.
----
Lt. Gov. Sean Parnell announced today that every eligible man, woman and child will receive $2,069, thanks to dividend payments from the state's oil royalty investment program distributed annually. On top of that, the checks will include another $1,200 from the state treasury to help offset soaring fuel prices.
----
The one-time energy boost was backed by Gov. Sarah Palin and approved by state lawmakers last month. Palin has since been tapped as the running mate of Republican presidential hopeful John McCain.
-----
Don't you wish you had someone like this working of of the Vice Presidents office, for you?

Polar Bears. Only people like you have priorities so out of whack.
These alaskans are sitting on Oil, yet people like you get a polar bear put on the endangered list and they end up paying 6$ Plus for gas.
23$ for a whole chicken, but people like you don't give a crap about that.

Ya can't eat a polar bear and you can't drive a polar bear, but you can damn sure eat what oil produces and drive your car or truck on the oil produced. This is a no brainer, drill. Just as soon as America starts the price of mid east crude will drop by 25 to 35 % minimum. Get a grip on reality folks, drill!!

Drilling today would have an effect in about ten years....it'd reduce the price by a couple cents. Responsible drilling is needed, but don't think for a second that you'll see a reduction under McCain. He has oil lobbyists on his campaign staff for cryin' out loud.

Ref: Responsible Drilling:
The Governor reminded members of Congress that the footprint of development would be less than 2,000 acres. She also assured members that any development would be conducted in a responsible and environmentally safe manner.

Baloney! and you know it. Oil shares produce profits when there is more drilling.
Short sighted response from you.
With McCain's lack of care of the environment and being another war monger like Bush, soon human beings will become endangered species.

This election is highlighting a class war in the making.
Here is a surprise, conservatives are not the rich. The elites are rich, television and the media are selling this conflict.
