The Hottest Governor in the United States to Sue the Interior Department…Over Polar Bears

By Duane Lester • May 22nd, 2008 • 522 Views

Gov. Sarah Palin, mother of five and the Governor of Alaska, says “The state of Alaska will sue to challenge the recent listing of polar bears as a threatened species.” Ah, if we only have about forty-nine more governors like this hottie, er, governor:

She and other Alaska elected officials fear a listing will cripple oil and gas development in prime polar bear habitat off the state’s northern and northwestern coasts.

Palin argued that there is not enough evidence to support a listing. Polar bears are well-managed and their population has dramatically increased over 30 years as a result of conservation, she said.

Climate models that predict continued loss of sea ice, the main habitat of polar bears, during summers are unreliable, said Palin, a Republican.

Notice anything? They were sure to note, very clearly, that Palin was a Republican.

Good for her. I think she might be a good choice for McCain’s Vice President. Maybe she could straighten out his global warming beliefs.
