Sarah "Drill Baby, Drill" finally speaks

She parlayed it into a signature slogan: "Drill, Baby, drill !!!"

So we've been wondering what Sarah thinks now, after the historic disaster taking place in the Gulf. Still think drilling in the coastal waters is a good idea? Dead silence for a week.

Now, somebody finally gave her her lines. The problem, and the lesson to be learned from this, according to a Twitter message just going out from Sarah:

Don't Trust Foreign Oil Companies

See, BP is based in England. The problem is that BP is only one of three companies involved in the Deepwater Horizon facility that is leaking. One of the others? The very American Halliburton. The third is a multnational corporation now based in Switzerland but originated as an American company.

But then Sarah doesn't like to let facts get in the way of a good sound bite.

Drill on, Baby. Drill on.
