Why hasn't Palin allowed Exxon to pay for the horrendous Valdez oil spill in Alaska?

Palin refuses to push Exxon to pay the government for the unanticipated environmental injuries from the disastrous 1989 Exxon Valdez oil spill.





Almost 20 years later, the private case is still unresolved and the governments likewise have yet to collect full payment from Exxon. Shortly before Palin took office in 2006, the governments presented Exxon with a demand to pay $92 million for this additional environmental damage, but her administration has since not pressed the issue nor taken Exxon to court to collect the money.

She doesn't care about the environment or endangered animals. She's also in bed with the big oil companies.Why hasn't Palin allowed Exxon to pay for the horrendous Valdez oil spill in Alaska?
Anna - you are a total idiot.





I live in Alaska. An Alaska jury found Exxon liable and defined a fine and penalty.





The reason Exxon has not paid - Exxon has spent the last 20 years on appeal.





How you can tie Palin to an issue that came up 20 years ago just totally defies logic. People like you should receive a life time ban from Yahoo Answers for asking totally hay wire questions. You should be ashamed of yourself.





Please start getting your informaiton for a reliable source.
Because you can put lipstick on a pig, but a hog is just that, a hog.



And this is Palins fault.....how? The courts just (this summer) ordered Exxon to pay out the survivors. Palin is not responsible for their court case or Exxon.
I think the best way to handle Palin is ignore her and let the bimbo hang herself.





There is good reson they keep her off news interviews.
in alaska they use dogsleds so they dont need exxons just purina.
20 years, and it's her fault. Digging, a bit?
