  IS there anything sarah palin doesn't want to kill

  Answer: No, not really.  Whales, wolves, puppy dogs, caribou, polar bears.  She probably uses lysol on germs and bacteria too.  What an icky
  murder face she is.

  Interesting

  Well, a lot of the best green ideas are all about taking wasted energy and using it for good.

  Woah there cynical sally

  Geez man, that's a pretty bummer way of looking at that stuff.  I mean, they've passed it a bunch of times before - i'm pretty confident that, especially now, they'll continue the tradition.  It'd be foolish not to.On Senate passes renewable tax credits on the ninth attempt posted 1 year, 1 month ago 5 Responses

  "Drill, baby, drill"? Is that for real?

  Cross posted from Environment America's Daily Kos Diary Here

  I couldn't quite believe it myself when I heard the crowd at the Republican National Convention last week, whipped up into a frenzy over the idea of opening our precious coasts to new drilling.

  Click here to see and hear it for yourself.

  In the last few days, 10,000 of us have urged our representatives and senators in Congress to say no to new offshore drilling, no to putting our beautiful coasts at risk of devastating spills, and no to the false hope of a quick-and-dirty fix to our energy problems. That's a fantastic accomplishment in such a short time.

  But frankly, we need to do more to make ourselves heard over the din of "drill, baby, drill" -- especially when Big Oil's propaganda machine can so easily amplify their call on Capitol Hill.

  As soon as the next few days, Congress will vote on whether to pass an energy policy paid for by Big Oil or one that puts us on a path toward a clean, sustainable energy future. Tell Congress to put a stop to the Big Oil agenda right now.
