Goodbye ANWR. It was nice knowing you.Washington Post - 31/08/08
Energy Wire talked to Gov. Sarah Palin in May about her views on Big Oil, offshore drilling and a long-awaited, expensive and controversial natural gas pipeline for which she has been pushing hard. With McCain's announcement Friday, suddenly her comments seem a lot more interesting.

I can't believe the Republicans actually hope that many of the would-be Hilary Clinton voters would switch sides just because Sarah Palin is now on board. If this is true (and it might be, its the USA afterall), then hopefully they'll be put off by the creationism stuff among other things. But who knows? Maybe if the Republicans handle Gustav well then the election will be in the bag regardless of party policies and personalities.Kieran wrote:She also wants creationism taught in schools. It's just so depressing.

The caribou. A beautiful creature that doesn't suffer fools gladly but unfortunately lacks the speed to become an efficient predator.RGR wrote:As someone who has traveled to ANWR, as well as Gates Of The Arctic and Prudhoe Bay itself to see what was going on, what in the world makes you think that drilling along the North Slope will somehow effect ANWR? It sure didn't bother the caribou who chased me down the Haul road when I got too close to them....
