According to Hastings, the Obama administration has shown a greater interest in appealing to “far-left environmentalists” than in preserving a pipeline that carries approximately 10 percent of the nation’s daily oil output and is responsible for one-third of Alaska’s economic output.Northern red tape: Congressman warns Alaska pipeline could be dismantled within 10 years

Palin Bumper Sticker Sparks "Terrible" Response
Pro-GOD, Pro-LIFE, Pro-FAMILY, Pro-COUNTRY: I agree with Adrienne. Since when did these become "terrible" things? And HOW did they become terrible things?

5 Best and 5 Worst Places for Conservatives to Live
Megan Fox is a stay-at-home mom, blogger, radio-talk show host and conservative folk-singer.
This is a really great article at NewsReelBlog
Some highlights:
The Best – #1. Texas
#3. Alaska
#4. Arizona
#5. Nebraska
The Worst – #1. California
#3. New York
#4. Wisconsin
#5. Washington
(I live in the #1 worst state in America...)

This is a really great article at NewsReelBlog
Some highlights:
The Best – #1. Texas
The reason Texas makes the number one spot on this list for the best place to live is because I believe it is the most likely (and able) to declare its independence if necessary. And if that does happen, you’d better already be a resident because once Texas closes its border, no one is getting in. Considering its size, it is also the state most likely to be able to accommodate the great flight that may be coming.#2. Oklahoma
While that reason is somewhat whimsical there are a host of other, more realistic reasons to become a Texan...
#3. Alaska
#4. Arizona
#5. Nebraska
The Worst – #1. California
No state that housed so many anti-American representatives and the entire Hollywood elite crowd could be considered anything less than the worst place on earth. Home of Barbara “Call Me Senator” Boxer, who made it possible for $500,000 to be given to a terrorist group who killed 51 of our soldiers, California is hell on earth for conservative sensibilites. Don’t forget Nancy Pelosi, Jerry Brown and whichever dimwit is currently running San Francisco. (It really doesn’t matter, they’re all clones.) California is so far over the deep end, it’s hard to know where to start.#2. Illinois
Maybe the second-graders having sex in class is a good jumping off point...
#3. New York
#4. Wisconsin
#5. Washington
(I live in the #1 worst state in America...)

An Alaskan fisherman tells the God's-honest-truth about Sarah Palin
By Dewie Whetsell, Alaskan Fisherman.
(As posted in comments on Greta's article referencing the MOVEON ad about Sarah Palin.)
Zogby Interactive: Sarah Palin Person of the Year for 2010; Pres. George W. Bush Person of the Decade
(As posted in comments on Greta's article referencing the MOVEON ad about Sarah Palin.)
The last 45 of my 66 years I've spent in a commercial fishing town in Alaska. I understand Alaska politics but never understood national politics well until this last year. Here's the breaking point: Neither side of the Palin controversy gets it. It's not about persona, style, rhetoric, it's about doing things. Even Palin supporters never mention the things that I'm about to mention here.She's got my vote!
1. Democrats forget when Palin was the Darling of the Democrats, because as soon as Palin took the Governor's office away from a fellow Republican and tough SOB, Frank Murkowski, she tore into the Republican's "Corrupt Bastards Club" (CBC) and sent them packing. Many of them are now residing in State housing and wearing orange jump suits The Democrats reacted by skipping around the yard, throwing confetti and singing, "la la la la" (well, you know how they are). Name another governor in this country that has ever done anything similar.
2. Now with the CBC gone, there were fewer Alaskan politicians to protect the huge, giant oil companies here. So she constructed and enacted a new system of splitting the oil profits called "ACES." Exxon (the biggest corporation in the world) protested and Sarah told them, "don't let the door hit you in the stern on your way out." They stayed, and Alaska residents went from being merely wealthy to being filthy rich. Of course, the other huge international oil companies meekly fell in line. Again, give me the name of any other governor in the country that has done anything similar.
3. The other thing she did when she walked into the governor's office is she got the list of State requests for federal funding for projects, known as "pork." She went through the list, took 85% of them and placed them in the "when-hell-freezes-over" stack. She let locals know that if we need something built, we'll pay for it ourselves. Maybe she figured she could use the money she got from selling the previous governor's jet because it was extravagant. Maybe she could use the money she saved by dismissing the governor's cook (remarking that she could cook for her own family), giving back the State vehicle issued to her, maintaining that she already had a car, and dismissing her State provided security force (never mentioning - I imagine - that she's packing heat herself). I'm still waiting to hear the names of those other governors.
4. Now, even with her much-ridiculed "gosh and golly" mannerism, she also managed to put together a totally new approach to getting a natural gas pipeline built which will be the biggest private construction project in the history of North America. No one else could do it although they tried. If that doesn't impress you, then you're trying too hard to be unimpressed while watching her do things like this while baking up a batch of brownies with her other hand.
5. For 30 years, Exxon held a lease to do exploratory drilling at a place called Point Thompson. They made excuses the entire time why they couldn't start drilling. In truth they were holding it like an investment. No governor for 30 years could make them get started. Then, she told them she was revoking their lease and kicking them out. They protested and threatened court action. She shrugged and reminded them that she knew the way to the court house. Alaska won again.
6. President Obama wants the nation to be on 25% renewable resources for electricity by 2025. Sarah went to the legislature and submitted her plan for Alaska to be at 50% renewable by 2025. We are already at 25%. I can give you more specifics about things done, as opposed to style and persona. Everybody wants to be cool, sound cool, look cool. But that's just a cover-up. I'm still waiting to hear from liberals the names of other governors who can match what mine has done in two and a half years. I won't be holding my breath.
By the way, she was content to return to Alaska after the national election and go to work, but the haters wouldn't let her. Now these adolescent screechers are obviously not scuba divers. And no one ever told them what happens when you continually jab and pester a barracuda. Without warning, it will spin around and tear your face off. Shoulda known better.
You have just read the truth about Sarah Palin that sends the media, along with the Democrat party, into a wild uncontrolled frenzy to discredit her. I guess they are only interested in skirt chasers, dishonesty, immoral people, liars, womanizers, murderers, and bitter ex-presidents' wives.
So "You go, Girl." I only wish the men in Washington had your guts, determination, honesty, and morals.
I rest my case. Only FOOLS listen to the biased media.

Why Sarah quit
Can you imagine having to go through this? We are allowed to know NOTHING about President Obama other than what he chose to write in his books...er, book (Bill Ayers wrote his first one for him...you know, on that single day they met in someone's living room). Everything else is completely locked up (shool records, birth records, medical records) and guarded by Perkins Coie, Obama's law firm.
But, hey, because of the liberal media and hard core left in this country, we know more about former Governor of Alaska and Vice Presidential candidate Sarah Palin that we'll ever be allowed to know about a sitting president!
But find out why she (most probably) left before her term as Governor of Alaska was finished: Do Financial Disclosures Reveal Why Palin Resigned?

3 things
If you only know three things that Sarah Palin has accomplished as Governor of Alaska, it should be these three:
- Gov. Palin is a proven fiscal conservative who used her line-item veto to slash hundreds of millions of dollars in spending from the state budget.
- Gov. Palin kept her campaign promise to revamp the state's pre-existing severance tax on oil & gas production, replacing a structure negotiated behind closed doors by ethically challenged predecessors and the big energy companies with one negotiated in full public view — and then rebated part of the resulting surplus directly to tax-payers.
- Gov. Palin broke a multi-year stalemate over the financing and construction of a $40 billion cross-state gas pipeline that will deliver cleaner, cheaper natural gas to Alaska's own population centers (Alaskans themselves pay some of the nation's highest energy prices), while also delivering gas to the energy-hungry Lower 48.

Palin is highly classified
Alaska is the first line of defense in our missile interceptor defense system. The 49th Missile Defense Battalion of the Alaska National Guard is the unit that protects the entire nation from ballistic missile attacks. It's on permanent active duty, unlike other Guard units.
As governor of Alaska, Palin is briefed on highly classified military issues, homeland security, and counterterrorism. Her exposure to classified material may rival even Biden's.
She's also the commander in chief of the Alaska State Defense Force (ASDF), a federally recognized militia incorporated into Homeland Security's counterterrorism plans.
Palin is privy to military and intelligence secrets that are vital to the entire country's defense. Given Alaska's proximity to Russia, she may have security clearances we don't even know about.
According to the Washington Post, she first met with McCain in February, but nobody ever found out. This is a woman used to keeping secrets.
She can be entrusted with our national security, because she already is.
Read the whole thing!

Hot babe for VP!
Now HERE's a woman that could easily rise to the level of the President of the United States...she's got the ethics (risked her entire political career to get rid of unethical politicians IN HER OWN PARTY), and every other aspect about her screams out: THIS IS WHAT WE NEED IN OUR POLITICIANS!!!
