Palin's environment record targeted by polar bears in computer game PolarPalin
Found here.

"Help the polar bears fight back by using dynamite to blow up the oil wells". Sarah Palin's environment record targeted by polar bears in computer game PolarPalin 12 Sep 2008 Players of PolarPalin must help a polar bear to navigate its way across Alaska to blow up oil wells, all the while avoiding (sociopath) Sarah Palin, the governor of the state, in her campaign tank. "This game is funny, but it has a very serious message," said Sadia Chishti, managing director of T-Enterprise, the Scottish company behind the game. "The US recently classified the Alaskan polar bear as a threatened species. It is predicted that the population of bears could be reduced by two-thirds by the year 2050. Yet the state of Alaska, led by Sarah Palin, is going to sue the government to reverse the decision. They are worried it will hold back oil and gas developments." In the game, which can be played online at www.t-enterprise.co.uk/polarpalin, players are urged to "help the polar bears fight back by using dynamite to blow up the oil wells".

:rofl:
