"First Dude" Palin: “Snowmobilers will have a strong voice in the White House"

Astride a flying snowmobile, Alaska’s ‘”first dude,” Todd Palin, makes an appeal to voters who worry about restrictions on riding the beasts — called “snow machines” by serious riders — in a mailer distributed by a state Republican Party. “Could this be the last winter to ride in our national parks?” asks the flyer featuring the four-time winner of Alaska’s grueling Iron Dog Snowmobile Championship.

The flyer, which landed in the mailboxes of Maine voters this week, sets “Obama’s extreme environmental policies” against John McCain and Sarah Palin’s “practical standards” of environmental protection. “Snowmobilers will have a strong voice in the White House,” it promises.



The direct-mail piece quotes a Sierra Club statement to instill fear in the hearts of snowmobilers:

“In the end, the point that snowmobiles are loud and obnoxious and polluting seems obvious to everyone save perhaps the person actually astraddle the beast. … They just don’t have any business in our national parks.”

on their dog teams and equipment and not "the oil industry" to pull them through the harsh trek of Alaskan wilderness? :sarcasm:
