Oh, surprise, Sarah Palin was for Cap and Trade before she was against it, on Monday, in the neocon pamphlet the Washington Post. This is just one more reason why she will become President of Earth in 2028. [Thanks to "Dwight I." for the tip.]

Why Does Commie Sarah Palin Love ‘Cap & Trade’ So Much?
Read More:
Bible Spice loves ‘Cap & Trade’ because she thinks it allows her to ‘cap’ someone and ‘trade’ their hide for fancy new shoes…
Sure they call it cap-and-trade, but the McCain-Palin plan was the Republican version of cap-and-trade. The caps were all voluntary, and the trade part meant giving all the corporations a tax cut that they could trade for deregulation.
That other thing is a commie plot to destroy America.
flippity floppity!
She didn’t mean oil. She meant you could ‘cap’ a caribou and trade him in for sausage.
HENNNNNGHHHH?!!!!
HENNNNGGGHH????
This is further evidence that the op-ed piece in the WP was a plant. That she would agree to lend her name to this charade is sadly predictable - and it may serve as an indication of things to come in the post-governorship era (including, why not, Viagra testimonials) - the real issue is that the Washington Post should agree to publish such claptrap. The once uber-respectable newspaper is in the last throes of its long life, reduced to acting as another whore for corporate America.
She is awesome. I am looking forward to what she’ll quit next.
Mama Grizzly: lol, good one…
I thought she would have gnawed her way through an extension cord by now.
Apparently the oil companies didn’t vet her either
It’s real simple. You are allowed to have as many retarded babies as you like, but you can trade them off, to your mother for instance.
I still believe the Trigger is Bristol’s and I still believe that 9/11 was an inside job and I still believe that JFK was killed by powerful economic interests friendly to LBJ (Brown and Root, later known as Halliburton)and nobody has yet proved me wrong to my satisfaction.
I am not an unreasonable person. I no longer believe that crop circles are proof of alien visitations, as I once did, for instance.
Cap’n Trade, Cap’n Crunch, what’s the diff?
All hail Dwight I. It can’t be easy in this world being named Dwight.
gurukalehuru: She specifically referred to “cap and tax” also. And also.
Also, what about Princess Di’s murder? The queen, BP, Royal Dutch Shell? Do I have spell it out for you?
gurukalehuru: I [i]really[/i] hope you’re being snarky.
LoweredPeninsula: Babies are renewable. Oil is not. This has been the basis of the (brief) Palin careers. Oh, look at me, I got a new baby! Oh look at me, I taxed oil companies! Oh look at me, now I gotta quit after these two exhausting years, during which I was largely away from my desk!
gurukalehuru: One cuts the roof of your mouth; one cuts your small-businessman legs out from under ya, dontcha know. Also.
She’s just being mavericky,
Ken, you just don’t seem to understand, when fighting the good old boy network, the librul media, the elites on both coasts (she’d be surrounded if it weren’t fer Canada and that err….other country) Dave Letterman and Levi Johnston you got to be macericky like a bed bug.
Gosh darn it! The evil LIEburuls at the Communist Post changed her RealAmerican op-ed to make her look like a hypocritical glory hound with the attention span of a stunned marmot.
Plus, mean old John McCain who wouldn’t let Sarah be Sarah wrote all that stuff. Also. Sarah would have done something completely different if she were president. Like leaving Jesus in charge and then going to the beach.
This is a new low for American politics: she’s breaking campaign promises and she didn’t even win.
villageatrois: So can we use babies for our energy needs? Maybe put them on treadmills like so many hamsters?
LoweredPeninsula: Every blog needs a good conspiracy theorist. Plus guru’s contributions are of a standard that his occasional reminders that we’re ruled by a shadow world government are taken in the spirit in which they are offered.
Palin’s Cap ‘n Trade = trades the polar caps on the planet for the ephemeral illusion of profit. But then, we all die in the end anyway so WTF?
hobospacejunkie: And Michael Jackson-
- I’m pretty sure there was a GOP tie-in to that- Ensign and Sanford left the news pretty quickly. If Jacko hadn’t been murdered by them, I am pretty sure they would have both had to resign by now.
“I don’t think she quit. I think she changed her priorities.”
– John McCain on Sarah Palin resigning her governorship
What ever Bible Spice is for-I’m agin’…
chascates: I don’t think he lost-I think he is nuts.
chascates: “Why, I once made just such a change in priorities myself. When, at the time, I realized that the slut I’d been fooling around with on the side was actually a wealthy beer heiress I determined that my wife was no longer a priority. It was only reasonable.”
Cap & Trade -a covert CIA program Cheney kept secret from congress. The end.
But she’s the Republican’s world renowned energy expert. Based on the fact that she sat on a state board that dealt with the oil companies for six months before quiting because no one would listen to her dimwitted ideas.
I’ve tried six different times to formulate a reply. I’ve backspaced over six different messages. Everything I want to say in response to Northern Exposure just falls apart, like biscuit crumbs. I’m letting this one go, so someone will understand my woeful plea: Make this woman go forever away, so that I may speak in coherent sentences, and not stutter in disbelief anymore.
Lieberman, Edwards and now Palin. Why do losing Vice-Presidential candidates always seem to self-deetruct.
Chickensmack: So basically, you’re saying, “Sarah, I wish I could quit you…”
DoktorZoom: “You complete (-ly stupefy) me.”
Madame Ovary won’t stop singing!
I had a funny review this morning- a guy named Moosbugger. But he isn’t from Alaska(yet)
gurukalehuru: and we NEVER went to the moon. Hollywood libruls!
Sarah: STFU and show us your tits.
Hunger Tallest Palin: “hypocritical glory hound with the attention span of a stunned marmot” Are you working on her obituary? ‘Cause someone’s gotta write it eventually.
Who do I call to hire Carriboob Barbie as Spokes Model for my law firm “We will advocate any position for a fee” and now featuring our absolutely free Second Opinion, “maybe not”?
There are a lot of them big words in that there Post article, and not too many also’s, fridge magnet wisdom or you betcha’s. Forget about who wrote it for her, I want to know who read it and explained it to her? Did they use a picture book to help or just models of caribou?
2goats: Genius marketing strategy, but you might get a flood of PUMA clients who are crushing on her still.
Bible Spice could do a lot towards lowering greenhouse gas emissions if she would just stop farting all of the methane outta her mouth, and possibly outta her hoo-hah & whazoo. Also, too.
Is it just coincidence that nowadays only 21% support a Palin-led Republican party while 21% also believe they have been abducted by aliens?
I think not.
To be fair, the McCain/Palin ticket didn’t really mean it when they said they supported Cap ‘n Trade. It was just some bullshit they put out to defend themselves from the charge that they don’t really give a shit about the environment. Its not like a McCain administration would have made it any sort of legislative priority or anything.
“Sarah Palin was for Cap and Trade before she was against it”
Of course she was. Next!
Isn’t cap and trade what Levi did to Bristol?
LoweredPeninsula: Why?
BobLoblawLawBlog: I always thought Cap’n Crunch got kind of slimy in milk. Cap’n Trade is slimy from the get-go.
hobospacejunkie: Nope. They were driving too fast in a crowded tunnel. They hit a pole at high speed. The physics adds up.
Liz may well have hated her daughter-in-law, but she had no real motive for having her whacked.
The Kennedys did kill Marilyn, though.
What does SaPa know about “supply side economics” and other such highfalutin’ dismal science, and when did show know it? I’d take her behind the school and whoop her for the lyin’ and cheatin’.
forgracie: Yes, Capricorn One was a great movie, perhaps the height of O.J. Simpson’s stellar Hollywood career, but I do believe that the fiction was fictional.
Nobody is questioning the physical possibility of our having sent space ships to the moon, therefore I find it reasonable to believe that we did. Also, there would be little motive for faking it, because if we, technologically, could not do it probably nobody else could have either, therefore it’s not a big propaganda loss, and certainly not worth the expense of pulling off a fake.
On the other hand, Sarah Palin’s flight from Texas to Alaska, spanning the longer part of a day, without any airline employees even noticing she was pregnant, is unimaginable to me. I’m not saying I could never be convinced, but I haven’t seen anything convincing yet.
Two planes, 3 buildings, free fall speed, doesn’t add up.
The magic bullet theory. I have stood at the window in the book depository building and looked down. No fucking way. Kennedy was killed from the Grassy Knoll.
Feel free to prove me wrong, or at any rate to try.
Palin’s attorney has threatened the Palin with a defamation lawsuit. She responded that it was yet another frivolous lawsuit and blames the media.
As Ice Queen of Earth, Sarah should watch her back. Princess Bristol is in the nutty church, with an ice pick.

x111e7thst: Imagine the new utopia run entirely on retard strength.
gurukalehuru: I believe that he is Admiral Crunch now. Count Chocula has also moved up to Archduke Chocula. There is advancement potential in the cereal world, according to Futurama.
worrierqueen: In what respect, worrier?
To be fair, I think the supposed abductees are WAAAAY more likely to be sane and truthful than the Sarah Palin supporters.
Blatent sexism and doublestandardry! Don’t you know a woman is LEGALLY ENTITLED to change her mind.
gurukalehuru: Been to the Texas Schoolbook Depository window. Very easy shot. Betcha I coulda done it with iron sites, also.
Demeaning, sexist smears.
You won’t being snarking with your sexist sexism if the governess of our frozen regions were a dude (not in the Coulter sense, though). I mean, look at Mark Sanford. First he was for the sanctity of marriage, then he was against. And. Not. One. Fucking. Peep.
Thank you.

Does she know?
yeah but NobAma ‘cap and trade’ is totally different.
Spike: Cap and Trade was actually a Republican idea way back in the 90’s and was talked up by noted environmentalist Newt Gingrich to make it sound like they cared about trees, polar bears, and New York drowning and didn’t think the Democrats would call for doing it. Obama called their bluff and now the Republicans have nowhere to go but admit that they don’t really care about trees, polar bears, and New York drowning. Obviously, however, they are still big fans of drilling things.
And, did anybody notice that all her declarations of how much gas Alaska has to offer the lower 48 and how much oil and gas there is “in the West” has absolutely nothing to do with Cap and Trade?
Zorg: Actually, my doubts rest more on Oswald’s ability to put away the gun and get down to the Coke machine on the 2nd floor by the time a policeman entered the building. Also, the fact that the motorcade was past the window, but Kennedy’s brains went flying out the back of the car.
If you think you could have made that shot, more power to you. I don’t think I could have. Oswald was not known as an expert marksman. Also.
By the way, Bush, Sr. did the same thing with sulfur emissions from coal burning power plants.
She was for Cap and Trade, because they sounded like great names for kids. HENNGGHH?
x111e7thst: Yes, babies could turn hamster wheels. Have you suggested this to POTUS staff yet?
Also, babies need to be tested for methane output.
