    Omooex - what do you think about Palin's tar sands project?

    It's a simple question, isn't it? Why no response?

    $500 million direct subsidy to Transcanada for a pipeline - a pipeline to be filled by BP and Exxon in Alaska, and emptied by BP and Exxon in Alberta's tar sand fields. There, the gas will be burned and shipped to BP and Exxon refineries in the U.S. What a great plan - backed up by $18 billion in Congressional loan guarantees.

    Those poor oil companies - they really need those subsidies in a time of record profits, don't they?

    And a renewable energy tax credit? Well, gosh - that would be socialism, wouldn't it?

    She really is a corporate welfare queen.
