That is not surprising given the order she signed as Governor in 2007 creating a climate change panel...................................................................................................................
It will help her in the general. One problem she won’t have is she runs is being seen as conservative enough. I mean, pissant won’t vote for her but he still wants Hunter.
What a loon you are! You didn’t even read what Sarah email actually said when she was praising Obama! It’s was when Obama was acting like a moderate on the campaign trail and talking up Alaska’s energy policies! Just go away!
The Alaska Climate Change Committee was to determine and study what effects climate change would have on Alaskans. One would be hiding their head in the sand to not think that climate change occurs, and to be considering what might be done depending on if it warms or cools. (Water storage, power, transportation, etc.) Her key sentence there is about how Alaska would be more affected by climate change than other places (most folks near the water, permafrost issues, glaciers, etc.)
Here is an article from CBS from 2009:

PALIN’S GLOBAL-WARMING SKEPTICISM.... Since Sarah Palin was added to the Republican ticket, there have been multiple reports about her skepticism regarding the science behind global warming. Last night, during her ABC interview, Palin was pressed on her beliefs, and got a little defensive.
“Show me where I have ever said that there’s absolute proof that nothing that man has ever conducted or engaged in has had any effect or no effect on climate change. I have not said that,” Palin told Charlie Gibson.
Well, what has she said? The AP takes a closer look, and concludes Palin’s remarks to ABC are “at odds with her previous statements.”
[I]n the past Palin has said she does not believe global warming is caused by human activity. She has told the Internet news site Newsmax, “A changing environment will affect Alaska more than any other state, because of our location.... I’m not one, though, who would attribute it to being man-made.”In an interview with a Fairbanks newspaper within the last year, Palin said: “I’m not an Al Gore, doom-and-gloom environmentalist blaming the changes in our climate on human activity.” ABC cited the interview as being at odds with her statement.
I can appreciate Palin being embarrassed about her beliefs now; she’s obviously well outside the scientific mainstream. If I were her, in my first national television interview, I’d be tempted to distance myself from right-wing talking points, too.
But Palin’s record is Palin’s record, and the fact remains that she’s so far out there, she’s rejected the connection between global warming and human activity. Indeed, she’s done so more than once. This not only tells us something important about Palin’s understanding of public policy, it also tells us a great deal about how she perceives and considers evidence that runs counter to her ideology.

Troll , you ‘ve been reported.
I am tired of the Rat troll hit and run comments here.
In that same email she stated that Obama had stolen Alaska policy in how it relates to the speech he was giving.
no she did not. the email was about how Obama’s speech was good BECAUSE he stoled HER ideas. Obama was stealing Palin’s energy ideas and she said yeah it was a good speech and we need to use this. the MSM making crap up again...
