I think in something like this:

def self.obj_list(opts = {:include => [] , :exclude => []})
    # Returns an array with all objects with roles applied
    # +:exclude+:: (array,string) optional object type to exclude from list
    # +:include+:: (array,string) optional object type to include in list
    # Example:
    #   Role.obj_list(:include => ["Device", "User"])
    #   Role.obj_list(:exclude => ["User"])

    inc = opts[:include].to_a
    exc = opts[:exclude].to_a

    objs = []
    if inc.empty?

      self.all.each do |r|
        unless r.authorizable_type.nil?
          objs << r.authorizable_type.constantize.find(r.authorizable_id) unless exc.include?(r.authorizable_type)
        end
      end

    else

      self.all.each do |r|
        unless r.authorizable_type.nil?
          objs << r.authorizable_type.constantize.find(r.authorizable_id) if inc.include?(r.authorizable_type)
        end
      end

    end
    objs
  end

I don't know, maybe you want to link the object and subject? If is this, here are a tutorial for that: http://wiki.github.com/be9/acl9/tutorial-linking-object-and-subject-with-hmt
