Heaven help us

I'm just ill. 


The state of Alaska will sue to challenge the recent listing of polar bears as a threatened species, Gov. Sarah Palin announced Wednesday. She and other Alaska elected officials fear a listing will cripple oil and gas development in prime polar bear habitat off the state's northern and northwestern coasts. 

Now that's setting the priorities straight. 

I understand also from the news today that she doesn't believe that the current environmental changes we're experiencing are due to human activity and industry. Either she's dim witted or she has some big players deeply embedded in her pocketbook. 

So this is who'd be waiting in the wings, a heart beat away, as they say? Does she not give a single thought to the dismal future of our children (and grandchildren) if we keep destroying our only home? It is so disturbing.
