Sarah Palin Hates Polar Bears and Wants Them to Die

2008 May 23

We are led to believe that the zeitgeist is beginning to shift in regards to global warming and political attitudes toward the ecosystem as a whole. First, Democratic candidates were promising to run carbon-neutral campaigns, the GOP nominee delivers a major address on climate change, and more recently, the Evil Empire itself, the Bush administration, said we need to start taking care of our nation’s polar bears. There is a growing environmental enlightenment throughout the American political spectrum.

Which has obviously got some paleo-Republicans in a tizzy. Yes, she’s on many McCain veep shortlists, yes she’s a charming, affable, and talented politician, and yes she looks sweet and innocent, like a perky librarian (are there perky librarians?), but Alaska’s governor Sarah Palin has a dark side colder than the icy tundra which she oversees.

Sarah Palin wants to kill polar bears.

Oh, she’s not so overt as to publicly advocate for their wholesale slaughter, joyfully wallowing in their gleaming viscera, all the more pronounced as their red life fluid stains the snowy Alaskan vista, her cackles echoing against the now-disintegrating glaciers as the white landscape slowly creeps to a sickening bloody pink. But the AP has reported today that Gov. Palin is challenging the Department of the Interior’s decision to place polar bears on the threatened species list, citing lack of “evidence” and fears about the impact on oil producers.

Take a second and digest this. The person charged with the care of the habitat of polar bears is claiming that the oil-obsessed Bush administration is being too nice to polar bears, and is now going to do her civic duty in ensuring that no one drilling for oil will ever live in fear of stepping in polar bear poop (which I would assume would just be like a frozen rock by the time anyone actually stepped on it. It’d probably be pretty fun to kick around, or throw at your oil drilling buddies as a gag).

This should really get the McCain camp’s attention, though. I can see it now. McCain/Palin 2008: You’re next, American Green Tree Frog!

Oh wait, wait! Or! Or! McCain/Palin 2008: Fighting the War on Bear-orism!

Oooh! One more! The Straight Talk Express – 167 Red Bellied Turtles Flattened since 1999.

Oh, extinction of species, is there any way you’re not funny?

Update: Changed the picture because, apparently, I had an image of someone who looks like Palin. I like this one better, anyway.

    Bottom line, with Palin as VP, McCain WINS.

    Without Palin, McCain likely does not win.

    Case closed.

    You're an Idiot permalink

    You’ve really got to do something better with your life than sit around and worry about polar bears. Try showing as much consideration for your fellow man. Also, simply throwing out Bush stereotypes that you picked up off the Daily Show does not make you informed. You’re just another part of the silly massess, quoting popular sound bytes because it makes you look cool. Try forming an actual opinion based on fact, instead of SNL skits.

    Just out of curiosity, are you friends with “you’re an idiot”? Is he some dude that trolls through blogs just to tell people they need to get a life? There’s something about that makes me want to misuse the word “ironic.”

    Honestly, this is some of the most idiotic enviro-wacko tripe I’ve ever seen. The problem with the Bush administration is that they haven’t been obsessed ENOUGH with oil exploration, waiting until this year to lift the executive ban on offshore drilling. The upside of all this – the American people are beginning to realize the incredible and dangerous burden that decades of idiotic environmental policies are now wreaking on our economy and national security, and finally support widespread exploration and production here at home. You’re a dinosaur you pathetic fool, and your earth worshipping stupidity is finally being kicked to the curb.

    You are like the rest of the Osama Obama unwashed masses, you have no clue about what is going on in the real world. If it weren’t for the Puffington Post and MessyNBC, you wouldn’t have any idea…

    It’s people like you that make a good argument for IQ tests prior to voting.

    That picture cracks me up. DO NOT WANT.

    This page is going to get a ton of hits over the next several days.

    Brilliant strategy by GOP. Not sure there was a better pick. Dems are idiots picking lame Biden.

    I’ll still prolly vote Obama, but Palin is awesome.

    Maybe I’m not readign this blog post correctly, but, I thought the author was being silly/sarcastic and really is pro Palin.

    I’m guessing the Palin choice takes alot of wind out of Obama sails and helps collect Hitlary’s voters…

    Works for me. Not a McCain fan but anything’s better than a Dim

    Polar bears are white, fuzzy, and cute. And they are breeding like rabbits. Surly their increasing population and ravenous appetite for seals can’t be a bad thing. And the fact they don’t actually need ice and could care less about global warming isn’t relevant. *Cough*

    I stumbled across this among many other blogs about Governor Palin and in the end wish I hadn’t, but what kind of person would I be if I didn’t put my 2 cents in as well. To begin, environmentalism is not only important, but climate change has been proven by an overwhelming section of the scientific community (at least those not on lobbyist payrolls). To insist that it is policies made to protect our environment, not the lack of vision and foresight to create new policies to accommodate our environment and maintain our security and financial status in the world is what is wrong, shows true ignorance. Secondly, Governor Palin represents the exact opposite of a sure thing for the republicans. She represents a paradoxical choice considering McCain’s battle cry thus far about too young and inexperienced to lead (i.e. “Ready to Lead?” advertisements). The clutching at straws the republican party has been doing prior to this move was amazingly effective (at least in B.S. polls) and what better way to counteract all that progress by picking Palin whose inexperience is outshined only by her controversial endorsements and questionable tactics for removing officials in her own state. Not to say that inexperience is a reason for disqualification. But all in all, what John McCain has done is contradict himself in an effort to steal former Hillary voters. What to any independent and informed mind would look much like an act of desperation.
    Well, good luck McCain, I’ll see you in the Senate next year.

    Give me a break. Try not to judge me too hard for being a republican. It seems to me you have 2 choices, be a republican and give all the tax breaks to the rich, and give the working man a break every once in a while, or be a democrat and give all the breaks to the poor man, and tax the middle man to death, and have the government take care of us all. Don’t get me wrong, not all republicans and democrats are the same, but McCain served his country, and Palin’s son is going to Iraq this September. I don’t think McCain could have picked a better veep. You go girl!

    By the way, most of the rich actually work for a living, and usually the poor are poor by choice. If you want to eat, you have to work. I would rather the rich get the tax breaks as they usually put money into the economy, whereas the poor usually suck the economy dry.

    I’m with “Ridiculous republicans” on this. McCain shot himself in the foot by picking a green candidate like Palin. It totally contradicts his attacks on Obama so far, and it’s a desperate attempt to get the woman’s vote.

    Also, if the older-than-dirt McCain were to be elected he’ll probably just get cancer AGAIN, and die… or have a stroke, and die… or have a heart attack, and die! Then what? We’ll be left with the hot “GILF” soccer mom to lead this country?!?!? I don’t think people are ready for someone who has resided over one of the least populated states to be the next president. Good job McCain! NOT! She didn’t look half bad on the cover of Vogue though…

    Well, there is certainly a lot of spite here. I respect that, you have to be passionate about what you believe, right? But I would encourage any other angry republicans or democrats who feel the urge to sound off on this blog to let a joke be a joke despite the author’s obvious liberal bias. Laughing together might be more productive than yelling at each other. But, hey, it’s a free country.

    It’s like it’s written by a Shakespearean monkey, high on meth. Yes, it grabs your attention, but it’s still written by an idiot. It’s like a maggot filled donut. Looks OK until you really delve into the substance… then it’s vomit inducing and just plain stupid.

    Not sure why you guys just don’t get it. You should WANT the government to take your tax money, to take care of you, to feed you. Obama KNOWS that this is what we really want and need because it gives everyone time with their kids without worrying about their health, to write new songs without condemnation, to invent without having to also grovel for capital, to provide me with medical services so I never have to worry. To provide me with a job so that I can put money back into the system. To not hold me accountable for my mistakes. It’s all part of the great plan and Obama is the man to lead us there and now I can feel good because I voted for a black man. I want my kids to know that there will always be food on the table and you can do anything you want and not worry about it. Save the polar bears and let me kill my own fetus!

    Wow, Palin sure has all you lefties peeing in your green pants. The instant personal attacks just seem to flow too easily out of your “righteous” mouths. What are you all afraid of? Oh wait, I know. Your world will crash down all around you and make you even more bitter when Barrack “The Chosen One” Obama is rejected by the populous this November. Palin is the shot in the arm McCain needed, and it is eating you guys alive. Maybe some Socialist country in Europe will take you in and tend to your every need when Obama’s presidential bid fails. There may be a lot of dumb masses out there, but the majority of the voters can see through all of his fluff and rhetoric. He may be a skilled man of words, but his actions show that is about all it is…words.

    Polar bears.
    The only species that actively hunts man.
    That is, when they’re hungry.

    And they’re hungry.
    Losing their seal-hunting habitat to ice-cap melting.

    Hungry polar bears.
    This is a matter of national security.


    btw, that is not a picture of Sarah Palin. That’s Sabine Ehrenfeld. But they’re both good shots and kind of awesome. The two of them could take a polar bear.

    Lee – Are you KIDDING me??? ” By the way, most of the rich actually work for a living, and usually the poor are poor by choice. ” The poor are poor by choice??? So, apparently you’ve never heard of the “working poor”, those who work hard every day and can barely afford to feed their families or put a decent roof over their heads. These people don’t choose to be poor, any more than your mother chose to give birth to a moron!

    Palin is completely right on the polar bear issue. They have been protected since 1972 by the Marine Mammals Act of 1972. Do any of you realize that?? There are now 3 times more polar bears than in 1972. The ONLY thing an Endangered Species designation does is to give Global Warming activists a tool to shut down industry across the entire country, because supposedly industry is hurting their habitat. Well sorry, but wanting our nation’s economy to survive is more important than listing a polar bear for no good reason that already enjoys full Federal protection and is thriving.
    Palin is protecting Alaskan jobs, which is her duty as Governor.
