WASHINGTON -- Sarah Palin says she remains a "big supporter of offshore drilling" despite the Gulf of Mexico oil spill.

But Palin also tells "Fox News Sunday" that oil companies need to be held accountable. The former Alaska governor suggests that drilling on land in places like the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge is safer than trying to extract oil from beneath the ocean floor.

AMAZING! Palin and Republicans have managed to use the oil spill as an argument for drilling in the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge. Instead of pushing energy efficiency and clean energy sources like the Democrats, the Republicans are pushing for drilling in more environmentally sensitive areas!

7. Well, as KO has often said -

"That woman is an idiot".

[roguevalley]

28. there aren't words vile enough to express what I think of her in

any language from any place that ever was in this solar system. she is the worst person alive, devoid of empathy, filled with narcissistic self love and the fire of satan. I live for the day she gets her come uppance.

2. Spill baby spill!

3. The only thing that Sarah cares about these days is her sack of money. n/t

[stubtoe]

12. Let us not forget Attention. That's her real addiction.

[IndianaGreen]

5. Throw the bitch into BP's oily goo

Let's see how she likes that shit!

[rtassi]

6. What you said!

[Politicub]

8. Or better yet, she should drink a big cup of oily water

And then lay in a bathtub filled with crude oil and seawater - immersing her whole body from head to toe.

And without anyone wiping it off of her after she gets out of the tub, I dare her to try to breathe and survive. If she likes off shore drilling so much, she should own it and really experience it.

Fuck her and people who give two shits about what she says. It says a lot about the sorry state of America that her destructive rallies get an audience and the media breathlessly reports anything that she says.

16. You took the words right off my keyboard!!

[FarLeftFist]

9. NO SHIT

[CLANG]

10. Palin: I'm a big supporter of venereal disease

[ShamelessHussy]

11. NEWS ALERT: Dog Bites Man!

some media we got, eh?

[GentryDixon]

13. Who cares what Sarah is in favor of?

Can't that woman just go away? She is so stupid she doesn't even realize her once ardent supporters are taking a second look at this person who was "more qualified than was Obama", and not liking what they see.

As always said, "What a maroon".

[Faygo Kid]

14. Of course, she will demand $$$$ from the oil companies to back them.

She is all about money, and only about money. For herself.

[joanmj]

15. Absolutely!

[MannyGoldstein]

17. So are Obama and Chu.

The miracle of triangulation.

[Heywood J]

18. We could just drill into the top of her head.

It would cover our national supply of Fail for centuries to come.

[truthisfreedom]

19. Self-marginalizing

bye, baby, bye!

[Bette Noir]

20. Say it with me:

"This woman (pause) is an idiot."

[Lagomorph]

21. With all the billions to be made...

in royalties, with the government collecting more money than the oil company profits, most of the government supports off-shore drilling, if more covertly than Palin.

Face it, if congress wanted it stopped, it would be stopped tomorrow.

[Blandocyte]

22. Does her husband still work for BP?

[Kievan Rus]

23. She'll say anything to get on TV

[ima_sinnic]

24. so she and Obama have something in common? (nt)

[yurbud]

25. it's nice to have your opponents smear themselves for you!

saves a lot of work--especially since Democratic Party leaders are often too timid to do it.

[and-justice-for-all]

26. They would strip the world bare,,,

and no living thing would be left alive if they had their way.

[jmowreader]

27. I'm all for drilling in Alaska too

With all the oil under the ground in Alaska, it only stands to reason there's a nice big pool of it right in front of Sarah Palin's house. So...dear Sarah, until you have the oil well drilled in your own front yard, just shut the fuck up.
