Why people can't accept that simple truth is the difference between night and day and also explains why Alaska is always shrouded in twilight.
After all, it takes the FBI and DOJ to clean up our local messes because we're always so busy making excuses for our societal and criminal misfits as they are part and parcel of what we proudly proclaim to be, i.e., ultimately different than Outsiders,
Simply more romantic trash from the recently moved here and I rest my case for the moment.
I sometimes wish there was an antidote to the stupid pill a lot of people apparently took at the border.

Goldstreamer 1,
In the winter of 2006, post inauguration, my brother and I, both 50+ year residents of our fair Territory and State, were summarily ignored by the Administration after bringing up rural power and heat issues. A number of other things very important to average Alaskans were brought to Her attention and on a formal, state sanctioned basis.
These issues were politely yet adamantly pushed to Her attention and just as peremptorily ignored by Her filters in place.

Dude, (sorry about that) I worked for her campaign and gave thousands of $, my own hard earned money, nobody elses, and believed. You, like so many others, have been snookered by one of the best, I'm not going back to that place.
Sarah Palin loves Herself like I love Alaska, my home.
I'm thinking Alaska and its people will be here much longer than SP's flash in the pan political career, a lot more people would be well served to not find out as did I, She is nobody's friend or advocate but for Her own ambition.

Oh Yur God,
I did not see McAllisters' plaintive assertion at the bottom of this article regarding our Governor's new economic policy, i.e. "we'll cross our fingers and HOPE the price comes up.
Now we're talking social security, folks.
Bottom line: Who and what are these people, and just what is it they think they deserve to know?
By the way, hasn't Bill McAllister turned into someone's pet, perhaps one more victim of the Palin thing?
Poor kid is looking like FDR in March of 1945.

Backing off a couple of posts,Polarmark, Yukon John and Tonto12,
the end result will be those not capable of putting up with our way of life minus the currently granted subsidies will, in a word, leave.
Sad? Not me.

Once again, the opportunity to take advantage of our wealth has been squandered by small minds. A crash course in infrastructure development had its moment in the sun and was ignored, in particular by our highly esteemed (by some) governor's office.
Let me rephrase that, patently ignored by the current Governor,
Nothing like showing up to lead and direct a state when things are good!
Gives "One" time to pursue "Outside" interests, no?

Re: the headline, take a deep breath and say "Duh".
Feel better now?
She cut the state budget and we're building a gas line to take care of "America's energy needs". Hmm, yawn, barf.

Crosswind, I can only hope: elsewhere, elsewhere, elsewhere.
She's used herself up among most of Her original, early 2006 supporters.
At least those more concerned with the future of Alaska and not personal interests.
And it's a damn sad thing.

Without further contributing to the rancor (I joke), I always wanted to ask Mark Begich about the ballistic characteristics of a common caliber, say .308 or 30-06, this in light of his highly pubicized buy in of a lifetime NRA membership several years ago.
Who knows, the kid might end up finding the backbone he always seemed to lack since the only calluses he developed as a young man came from pushing Tony Knowles around in his office chair as mayor of Anchorage.
Best wishes to all of us as he votes in the U.S. Senate.

I do understand, but it remains easier to baffle the True Believers with methane as a solid.

P.S. How did you know I was writing from my parents' basement, I'm nearly 60 years old.
Does that mean I too embody Accountability and Transparency?
