Republican presidential candidate John McCain voiced support on March 31 for the Polar Bear Conservancy's Antarctic Relocation Program.

"This is exactly the kind of creative public-private partnership we ought to be exploring. I support the basic concepts of this program," McCain said.

I’m sure you are coorect. It had been a long time since I lived in Minnesota, but I’m pretty sure there are more wolves there now than ever too.

Relocating the polar bears to Minnesota would be a great idea. They could help control the Democrat population.

I vote to relocate them to Capital Hill. There, they will be well stocked with plentiful blubbery creatures to fest upon, but will also find formitable competitors in search of that same prey. It will be a good fight and we'll find out who's the greatest land carnivor of all. After all, neither has ever had a competitor for the top spot on the food chain before.

I'm picking the Bears.

No it’s not. On O’Reilly he stated that he was an environmentalist.

When asked if he would support drilling in ANWR, he stated, “No, I won’t support drilling there. It’s pretty. I’m an environmentalist” (paraphrased)
