Oh Dear. Sarah sure sounds a little homey and not-so-smart when she wants to, but put an oil well summary in her hands and she'll spit out the most marvelous intelligence, why, I'd almost swear she was a member of big oil herself!

She seems to think John McCain's idea of drilling off shore isn't enough - in fact, she sounds downright miffed that he isn't willing to drill in every square inch of Alaska - you know, the last place we haven't screwed over with our corporate greed.

So, as the markets tumble and corporate profiteers sink back into the shadows, and blame on the stock market crisis is thrown around the room like a game of political 'hot potato', the oil industry sets their sights on getting the Federal Government to open more lands and more areas that were previously un-touched. So they can pull some more profit into their bottom lines.

Remember, these are the corporations who are, even TODAY, making record profits. And to their left and right, the mortgage industry implodes, the financial industry withers.

Coincidence that attention is being pushed in Congress towards the oil industry instead of the real problems at hand? The economic troubles of real Americans? Jobs? Education? You know, REAL STUFF.

Big oil has it's hands so deep in the McCain camp, before you know it, you're going to start calling John McCain Jed Clampett and Sarah Palin his 'Ellie Mae'.

Listen. Think what you want, but sure seems like if I were a well-financed industry like big oil, who is obviously swimming in record profits, I'd think it was a smart idea to use my well-connected Religious Right buddies to sneak a Governor into a scarcely-populated state, make her out to be a 'rebel' at the same time giving residents hush money in the form of 'profit payments' - and wait until the time is right to shift her into a bigger pro-oil role.

Sound crazy? Hmmmm.... well, open your eyes and see what's 'crazy'.

The easiest way to win an election is to pretend to be a maverick of change. Especially if people aren't keeping their eyes on the ball.

America. Consider this. If John McCain TRULY was an agent of change, why'd it take him 26 years to figure that out?

My momma always says - 'if something sounds contrived - it probably is...'

think about it

:popcorn:

[progressoid]

5. whoops!

[Bette Noir]

6. This would be more convincing with a date and attribution.

While it could be embarrassing to McCain in its current form, it could be absolutely damning if properly sourced.

7. Must have been before the nomination. She's actually being interviewed. n/t

[thereismore]

8. Exactly. the breaks are annoying, the repetitive "drill" is unnecessary. We need the original. nt

[DaveJ]

18. It was before the nomination, a CNBC Kudlow & Company interview

Yeah, on June 25, 2008 she was reaming McCain but nevermind that, Repukes smoked a LOT of pot during the 70s and have no short term memory.

And there's no reason why someone can't re-purpose the existing video. Although if voters can't already figure it out they're hopeless. They don't understand things like facts, better to show lollipops and cheeseburgers, that's what gets their attention.

9. "World of hurt"?

Watches a lot of professional wrestling, doesn't she?

[jeff30997]

10. "start calling John McCain Jed Clampett "

Lol.Yeah it could make an interesting sitcom: The Capitol Hillbillies. :)

[lumpy]

11. Palin is not 'well versed ' in the energy situation. Hell, she says

that Alaska contributes 20% of the our oil supply; actually Alaska only produces 5% supply. She is pushing for ANWAR development to hold onto her popularity in Alaska by doling out annual bucks to Alaskan voters. She is all about greed, to hell with Alaskan ecological ramifications. Bad enough she is ignorant on so many fronts but her greed for power and celebrity is outrageous.

[The Wielding Truth]

13. I heard it was only 3.7%. She does go on now. Doesn't she?

14. The Obama camp should

Use this in an ad and use MaGoo's own words about a Bridge to Nowhere.

15. Yes, McCain is in la-la land, and Palin is in loony-loony land

What a combo!

[Maestro]

16. What a shill!

Dig a huge, gaping hole wherever we may or may not find oil. Who cares about the future? She is only living in the now because her dumb ass brain can't think more than a day ahead.

17. Kay & Arrrgggghhh!

I sure hope they snag this on the Daily Show!
