Does anybody think the Palin pick has anything to do with drilling ANWR?

As in the oil companies are running things still?

for cosmetic purposes, on the big issues, she's in the pocket of the oil corporations.

She opposes the listing of the Polar Bear as a threatened species, in spite of overwhelming evidence to the contrary. I believe the only logical reason for this would be to allow the oil corporations to drill in the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge with impunity. She's a global warming climate change denier and that's the big issue with the oil corporations.

P.S. Check out post number #11 on the second link for a nice graphic of ice shrinkage in the Arctic, anyone who believes this doesn't adversely affect the Polar Bears' very existence must also believe Penguins love the Sahara.
