Get ready for this statement to sting her.

I told the Congress "thanks, but no thanks," for that Bridge to Nowhere.

Except that she requested that Bridge to Nowhere until it became an obvious embarrassment

3)"Our opponents say, again and again, that drilling will not solve all of America's energy problems — as if we all didn't know that already.

But the fact that drilling won't solve every problem is no excuse to do nothing at all."

Again...bullshit...the McCain camp wants to drill now and ask questions later and McCain wants to drill Alaska land when Palin has always been against it, and still is. Drill, baby, drill...but not in MY state. Palin has made that opinion clear.

"This is a man who can give an entire speech about the wars America is fighting and never use the word "victory" except when he's talking about his own campaign. But when the cloud of rhetoric has passed ... when the roar of the crowd fades away ... when the stadium lights go out, and those Styrofoam Greek columns are hauled back to some studio lot — what exactly is our opponent's plan? What does he actually seek to accomplish, after he's done turning back the waters and healing the planet? The answer is to make government bigger ... take more of your money ... give you more orders from Washington ... and to reduce the strength of America in a dangerous world. America needs more energy ... our opponent is against producing it. "

The answer to your question is all here. And it is all bullshit.

Sarah Palin is Chicken Little.

I hope America does not fall for her.
Wow, you REALLY need to do a little homework before you make a post like that. You have it backwards... McCain is the one that doesn't want to drill in ANWR, only off the coasts. Gov Palin, and the vast majority of Alaskans, do want to drill in Alaska, perhaps in part because they know it will bring many good jobs and more wealth to the state.

Look it up.
