Every time one thinks things just can’t get more outrageous, Sarah Palin opens her mouth. She now blames environmentalists for the BP oil spill. According to her own facebook comments:
With [environmentalists’] nonsensical efforts to lock up safer drilling areas, all you’re doing is outsourcing energy development, which makes us more controlled by foreign countries, less safe, and less prosperous on a dirtier planet. Your hypocrisy is showing. You’re not preventing environmental hazards; you’re outsourcing them and making drilling more dangerous.
Extreme deep water drilling is not the preferred choice to meet our country’s energy needs, but your protests and lawsuits and lies about onshore and shallow water drilling have locked up safer areas. It’s catching up with you. The tragic, unprecedented deep water Gulf oil spill proves.
We don’t need the blame game. We need to get that gusher stopped and start the clean up. Does Sarah Palin thrive on discord and animosity? Does she want Americans to hate each other? Her behavior indicates that the answer to that question is yes. Shame on Sarah Palin, again.
