"Why is Governor Schwarzenegger pushing for the same sorts of policies in Copenhagen that have helped drive his state into record deficits and unemployment?" Palin wrote on her Facebook page. "Perhaps he will recall that I live in our nation's only Arctic state and that I was among the first governors to create a sub-cabinet to deal specifically with climate change."

Thata girl!
Schwarzenegger is a RINO.
California became a failed state under Arnold’s “leadership.” He has no room to talk.
He is worse than a RINO, he is a girlyman.
I already liked her - but she really keeps growing on me.
There’s great potential there.
She may not be there yet - but she’s “got it”
Not even that. He's just a celebrity air head. Has a lot in common with the president when you think about it.
Man’s total contribution to the greenhouse effect: 0.28%
Man’s contribution to greenhouse effect via CO2: 0.117%

Our “responsibility” for “global warming” amounts to statistical noise.
this is what she actually said on face book:
“While I and all Alaskans witness the impacts of changes in weather patterns firsthand, I have repeatedly said that we can’t primarily blame man’s activities for those changes,” she wrote. “And while I did look for practical responses to those changes, what I didn’t do was hamstring Alaska’s job creators with burdensome regulations so that I could act ‘greener than thou’ when talking to reporters.”
George points to Palin's comment saying Obama should not go to Copenhagen and references an USA Today/Gallup poll that has 7 out of 8 Americans saying we should focus on fixing the economy and not global warming.
Arnold responds saying we can do both and proudly talks about green jobs in CA including an algae fuel farm! Then he says it is "nonsense talk" to just focus on the economy. You can do both, have a delegation over there on the environment and and focus on issues at home. "No excuse at all to boycott" the conference. There are people that don't believe in "fixing the environment" and "don't believe there is such a thing as global warming; those people are living in the stone age..."
No wonder Sarah unloaded on him!
You mean, like Lindsay Graham?
Yea, but playing “greener than thou” is pretty darn good.
Nahhh, Schwarzenegger is just dumb ...
They all think the road to salvation is to guilt trip the public and collect more in taxes.
I’m living in the stone age. I don’t believe in global warming.
“.....but I was the first Governor to create a subcommittee on climate change? Good grief.”
What do you mean?
Amen! It is soooooooooooooooo nice to finally have someone who takes it to them instead of keeping silent, thinking it will pass if ignored. That might have been true at one time, but in today's world a charge not answered is a charge that sticks, as is.
That was one of my biggest discontents with Dubya and his eight years in office. The few times he talked back to them, “Bring it on!”, they gave him grief and he backed down. That was always a sure sign of a RINO in my book. They make a great statement, then cower when it's challenged. If it's true, say it loud, say it proud and the more they try to use it against you the louder you say it!
Yeah, what a huge disappointment he turned out to be.
Ah-nold was the ultimate Manchurian candidate.
The Camelot folks gave him a mind meld and it has been all downhill from there.
Hey, Ah-nold—don’t ever be back,mkay?
You should never cower from the truth, regardless of how those who are “offended” by it demonize you.
Ahhnold just got spanked, what a girlymaaan.
Greener Than Thou?

Why is Governor Schwarzenegger pushing for the same sorts of policies in Copenhagen that have helped drive his state into record deficits and unemployment? Perhaps he will recall that I live in our nations only Arctic state and that I was among the first governors to create a sub-cabinet to deal specifically with climate change. While I and all Alaskans witness the impacts of changes in weather patterns firsthand, I have repeatedly said that we cant primarily blame mans activities for those changes. And while I did look for practical responses to those changes, what I didnt do was hamstring Alaskas job creators with burdensome regulations so that I could act greener than thou when talking to reporters.

One thing will be remembered from this exchange: Sarah calling Arnold “greener than thou.” Sarah exposes the girlyman gov and wins hands down.
He's a dimwit who said out loud that California's finances are under control.
“While I and all Alaskans witness the impacts of changes in weather patterns firsthand, I have repeatedly said that we cant primarily blame mans activities for those changes”
Exactly. I guess “stoopid” Sarah is smarter than the myriad AGW advocates (and scientists) who blindly accept that man is the driving force behind current global warming.
The climate has always changed, and it always will.
I think he was making the assumption that just the topic of climate change submits to it being man-made. She knows better and her direction was to create a commission whose function was to attempt to determine not only the cause, but also identify what its effects could signal damaging the commerce and standard of living in the State. In other words, no matter what it is, how can we adpat and overcome its effects. I call that being procative instead of reactive.
She’s got great instincts.
He's not the first man to marry a beautiful nitwit, but many men have sense enough to ignore the brainless opinions and the mindless rants.
Of course, there are countless fascinating women who are intelligent; in fact it's a sine qua non.
(Who wants to be married to a nitwit in the first place. I've seen a few I wouldn't mind being married to for maybe half an hour or so, but beyond that any man with a functioning mind would be bored out of it. Maybe that's what happened to Schwarzenegger.)
Arnold is just plain stupid....color him BLUE or RED. He’s made a big fat mess out of his tour in Sacramento.
See 2nd paragraph. Sarah, like Newt, believes in the Hoax.
Sarah is very good at getting a MEMORABLE short sound bite quote - “greener than thou”, “death panels”, etc - the skillful art of communicating in today’s sound bite world.
Good grief is right. If you're going to be critical of someone and quote them at least have the intellectual honesty to quote them correctly:
"Perhaps he will recall that I live in our nation's only Arctic state and that I was among the first governors to create a sub-cabinet to deal specifically with climate change." (My emphasis)
There is a big difference between your "first Governor" to her statement of "among the first governors" and between your "create a subcommittee" to her "create a sub-cabinet".
No one is asking you to like Governor Palin but to hide behind platitudes of "On my word I love Sarah but" in order to misrepresent her is pretty damn low.
Yes, and being exceptionally bright doesn't hurt either.
“He’s not the first man to marry a beautiful nitwit...”
I wouldn’t call ol’ wedge face a “beautiful” anything.
"The former Republican vice presidential nominee has questioned whether human activity contributes to climate change, and wrote an op-ed in the Washington Post last week blasting the cap and trade policy promoted by the Obama administration to limit emissions. She has also called on President Obama to boycott the Copenhagen conference."
The climate does change periodically. It has since the beginning of time. The hoax being perpetrated is that it’s caused by man.
NO, she does not believe in the HOAX. She said SAID SO straight up and straight out on many occasions, including this one!
“Liberal” ideas are based on an initial assumption that is a lie,
so, no, you can’t “modify” those and get anything that actually works.
Aaahnold, a former A-list actor whose main job was to read and verbalize the thoughts and opinions of others. It’s no wonder he agrees with the current occupant of the White House who also excels at reading and delivering the thoughts and opinions of others. It’s just a shame that both of these men don’t continue to ply their craft in Hollywood where they are each obviously eminently qualified.
Prove it.
Where is your proof Sarah is a belivier in the “hoax”.
As many already stated the facts do not back you up on this point.
Bump
I have to disagree with this comment. I have seen actors more eminently qualified than Arnold in the local grade school play.
Somehow I can’t see a third grader cast in the title role in “Terminator”... but that’s just me.
The short-term climate in Alaska has gotten warmer, that is a fact, and given the issues with permafrost melting under homes, that is a problem. Palin simply says that we don't know whether that warming is human-caused.

You might wanna back up and punt again. She didn’t say what you are saying she said...
