“Reporting from Seattle - In what would be the largest habitat zone ever established in the U.S. to protect a species from extinction, the federal government today proposed designating 200,541 square miles on the coast of Alaska as critical habitat for polar bears.”

Hmmm let me guess...no drilling, it will scare the poor bears?

Perhaps he can relocate them to the lower 48, just like the Gitmo detainees.

The other day one of those polar bears whispered to me, “We promise Obama we won’t allow no oil drilling if he does this deal for us. And he’s gonna give us free fish! No more swimming around in cold water catching the darned things!”

In what would be the largest habitat zone ever established in the U.S. to protect a species from extinction, the federal government today proposed designating 200,541 square miles on the coast of Alaska as critical habitat for polar bears.

What is Alaska's size in square miles?

Answer

663,267 square miles. World Almanac & Book of Facts 2007

Holy Bat-Sh*t that's ONE THIRD OF THE FRIKIN STATE!!!

That is bigger than EVERY STATE with the exception of Texas and almost as big as France

That area is almost THREE TIMES the size of New England (Approx 71,000 sq miles)

If Alaskans don't revolt over this naked Fed power grab over the "Control" of that much of their state, they are not made up of what I thought they were!

Just another pay-for-play payoff.

Somebody must've found some more oil or coal or something equally useful, I guess.

My first gut instinct was it would block drilling for America's oil, help Islamic Terrorist by keeping Oil prices high and further endanger Americans by helping to block our pursuit of energy independence.

Democrats may not be evil, but then if so, what is?

What kills me here: is Obama TRYING to provoke a personalized smackdown out of Palin’s stash of whuppass?

Polar bear habitat? In Alaska? Really?
