Obama Disses Alaska

Sen. Murkowski: “I cannot understand why this administration is willing to negotiate with Iran, but not Alaska.”

Fifty million Americans who live in the northeast will experience what is predicted to be a historic blizzard from Monday evening through Tuesday. Cities and towns will virtually or literally close down. People will be told to stay indoors for their safety and to facilitate the crews that will labor to clear the roads of snow.

In other words, welcome to Alaska, a place that is plenty cold most of the year and which is no stranger to snow and ice.

Alaska, however, has something that the whole world considers very valuable; oil and natural gas. Lots of it. In 1980 a U.S. Geological Survey estimated that the Coastal Plain could contain up to 17 billion barrels of oil and 34 trillion cubic feet of natural gas.

Entitlement cities are his and thier babies that they coddle support and nurse, any state that can stand on it’s own and has something to offer in the way of energy or anything else is frowned upon because you dont need them.

Sen. Murkowski is secretly for this program. She’s an elitist of the first order. Her last election proved that.

Because Obola and Jarrett and Clinton and Kerry want to destroy Alaska, Texas, and North Dakota. And Israel.

They do NOT want to harm Iran, Iraq, Russia, Turkey, Syria, Lebanon, the Palestine radicals, Venezuela, Mexico, or Pakistan.

What part of Vallrie Jarrett's declaration of war on Obama's non-friends is so newsworthy? They openly and formally announced they would be "rewarding their friends and punishing their enemies"

The only problem with that plan is that their enemies outnumber their friends by about 100,000 / 1. So in order to be more efficient with time constraints and Executive order numbers to be issued, such punishments will be carried out on a state by state basis. Any other way would leave no time for Golf, or for the little girls over at State to play "Barbie goes to Washington".

Forgot Cuba! Yes, the anti-Americanism has been in our face for over six years in high intensity. Still, a big part of the electorate has their minds and eyes shut to reality. They will vote for another anti-American Marxist...the standard bearer for the DemocRat party.

Hey, anyone ever get the scoop on Marie Harf? Check out this from the Times...............

She is the daughter of Jane Ax Harf of Granville, Ohio, and James E. Harf of St. Louis. The bride’s father is the associate vice president and the director of the Center for Global Education at Maryville University in St. Louis. He is also a professor emeritus of political science at Ohio State University in Columbus. Her mother is the director of the University Clean Energy Alliance of Ohio, a statewide organization in Columbus that supports clean energy research.

He is the son of Tricia H. Lucas and John E. Lucas of Manchester, N.H. The bridegroom’s mother works in Concord, N.H., as the advocacy director for New Futures, a nonprofit organization that combats alcohol and drug abuse. His father is a lawyer for the State of New Hampshire Office of Legislative Services in Concord.

This is what being a “moderate” leads to Murky.

The Alaska residents should feeeeel good that Obama is looking out for them. The oil $$ spigot will be cut off for Alaskans.

Alaska gives every resident $1,884 despite declining oil revenue

Oct 2014

An avalanche of free money strikes Alaska on Thursday as the oil-rich state government deposits $1,884 into the bank account of nearly every year-round resident.

The $1.1-billion payout is the third-largest since the Alaska government began using earnings from a rainy-day account, created by windfall oil revenue, to pay people for living here. The arrival of the money has become an annual holiday for families and retailers, part Christmas, part Black Friday.

“Very good news for people like us that sell impulse items,” said Fairbanks snow-machine dealer Craig Compeau, who peddles boats and motors and other necessities of Alaska life to dozens of remote villages across the state.
