A 6,000 year old world needs no mining laws
Arizona state Sen. Sylvia Allen supports uranium mining because the 'earth's been here 6,000 years'.

don't discount Mrs Palin.
Just because she's out of sight for now, doesn't mean someone isn't up to something.
mark my words, you haven't heard the last of Sarah Palin.
this is the best that the "friendly opposition" in arizona could come up with? you've got mccain juxtaposed with THIS?? i'm with the first poster--let the GOP have her. it's amazing that they can't figure out why people don't like them right now. sheesh!
People like this should never get voted into power that's the scary thing.
For those who accept the Biblical account of Creation the earth is estimated to be between 6 and 10 thousand years old. BUT, this view should never be used to disregard responsible stewardship of the planet we call home.
God gave mankind the responsibility to have dominion over the earth. But dominion bears accountability and not just authority. Authority exists to provide and protect that which is under it.
The Laws which governed ancient Israel took into account proper care.... More
I am embarrassed to be from AZ after seeing this. What is really shocking is that she ran stating an emphasis on the importance of improving the AZ education system and the environmental issues pertinent to her area (forest health and watershed protection). That uranium mine isn't going to do any favors for either, lady. Wow!
Great bit of logic! It's safe to walk across the highway blindfolded because I've never been hit by a car before. Of course, the good senator likely did not get as far as logic and rhetoric, never having passed biology or history. Nevertheless, I too would LOVE to see her as a prominent Republican candidate. She will appeal to the all-important Christian Taliban, the Toby Keithites and the NASCARians. You go girl! Show those Democrats how useless that "liberal" value, strong universal.... More
Since when has it been important for politicians to know anything other than to do as they have been told.She did make clear that her constituents would make money.Before you pounce you could even ask her if the uranium will be for medical purposes. From what I heard she doesn't sound like she is doing it because of the age of the earth.
Since Palin looks like she's getting out of the political limelight, Senator Allen would be the perfect GOP presidential candidate for the next race. Especially with comments like this. I think she would make a wonderful candidate! She is looking like a typical GOP winner to me! ;) ;) Keep up the good work Senator!
