Defenders of Wildlife new TV ad, this time re. Palin and polar bears

[Blondiegrrl]

"Governor Sarah Palin has launched an all-out effort to eliminate protections for threatened polar bears -- a campaign that could result in more polar bears drowning and starving to death and more being killed for trophies.

"Film and television star Ashley Judd has lent her voice to our hard-hitting new television ad to educate voters about what Governor Sarah Palin really stands for. But we still need to raise the $150,000 to air this powerful new ad in key battleground states like Ohio, Colorado and Virginia."

1. Awesome ad. The welfare of our magnificent wildlife is the most important thing to me

along with our beautiful environment, at least what's left of it. There is nothing that touches my soul more than wild animals and the land they live in.

2. Good, good, good, I'm so glad they did this. n/t

11. Mine too. I gave twice to help air the Palin aerial hunting ad. I'm

unfortunately tapped out for the next week or so, but I'm going to make a point of giving to DoW on a regular basis from here on out. I was really pleased when I heard the focus group reports that their anti-Palin commercials were making an impact. It feels good to know my donations are being wisely spent.

12. Their "Wolf" ad was wonderful.

And directly bringing up her position on Endangered Species issues is a great thing to hammer her on.

8. kick,

[krkaufman]

9. Well, that was lame. Why did they not mention that Palin changed the report of her own study group

... to suppress their agreement that climate change is adversely affecting polar bears? The commercial could have been so much more direct, and would have demonstrated yet another way in which Palin is Bush in a short skirt.

10. Three things matter in the end

1. how we treat each other
2. spending time with those we care about
3. how we treat the planet and it's creatures

As human civilation evolves beyond a Type 0 (our current status), and things like credit, money and mortgage crisis become a relic of the past, those three things will underly what is real and the true greatness of mankind.
