Sarah Palin Blames Environmentalists For Gulf Oil Disaster
bizzaro or what?

In her latest note on Facebook, Sarah Palin is blaming "extreme 'environmentalists'" for causing the gulf oil disaster that has been unfolding for over a month. Her logic is that because environmentalists push for tougher drilling regulations onshore in places like the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge (also known as ANWR) it forces oil companies to explore deeper offshore drilling which has more risks.

1. The idiot wants attention...
Are we all sick of Sarah Palin spouting off the most bizarre, untrue, idiotic
things ever said?

The only way she can get attention is by being ridiculous. She's like the
kids in Walmart who want the candy at the checkout lane. Sarah figures that
the louder and more obnoxious she is--the more likely it is that she'll get
another fifteen minutes.

4. Kind of like "Women who dress hot but turn men down are responsible when women are raped."
Or "People who don't get in fights over trivial insults are responsible when mean people beat up someone else because it forces mean people to be mean to someone else."

Or just about anything else you'd expect an uneducated, half-wit bumpkin to say to try to ignore the obvious fact that she was wrong and was proven wrong before the entire universe.

7. OK, I am sick of hearing this LIE repeated by the GOP, so here's the truth
The reason we are drilling so far off the shore is that the oil closer to shore has ALREADY BEEN TAKEN!!!

Trust me, if there was oil in downtown Galveston, the oil companies would drill and buy the politicians

We are running out of oil and the industry is resorting to deep oil drilling and oil sands - both horribly expensive ways to get oil

8. I would love to see a debate between
Caribou Barbie and Plaquemines Parish President Billie Nunguesser. Billie is a classical "Bayou Populist."

9. Environmentalists are too blame!
Without environmentalists the earths natural resources would have been virtually destroyed or depleted within the last couple decades,thus there either would not have been a gulf left to spill oil in,or people to spill it had it not been for those people so dark and sinister they believe the environment deserves protection.
