T: Is for taking a stand against Palin

Alaska Governor Sarah Palin is at it again...this time, she's the only governor in America to reject almost $29 million in federal stimulus money slated for energy efficiency programs in her state. Though I think spending this kind of money when there supposedly is none is insane, at the same time better to the environment than to the irresponsible CEO's of Wall Street. The money is there for states to strengthen building codes, prioritize energy efficiency and renewable energy, replace streetlights with LED bulbs and incentivize energy savings for customers, but Governor Palin is rejecting this environmentally sound plan simply because she believes it is not happening. She needs to pull her head out of the iceberg.
The future of this planet depends on everyone, including the residents of Alaska.
Even fellow Alaskan Republicans are urging Governor Palin to accept the funds, but she is stubbornly refusing to adopt energy efficiency standards critical for the future of our planet.

Here are some of the absurd statements she has made.

I thought before the election and I still feel as strongly, this lady needs to be educated and that is a F.A.C.T
