WHen I first arrived in Anchorage in 1980 it was a GI’s dream come true. A free people, good money to be had and minimal legal hassles.
Things have changed, drmatically in the last 8 to 10 years. I suppose too many Califlowers have moved in. Sigh.
Now we have laws on everything, gangs out the wah-zoo and now I hear the local Catholic Social Services is trying to import even more Somalis, Hmong and other classes of refugees.
Aaarrrrggh.
Well, you wanted to be a state. You could have remained the “Blubber Capitol of the World”, but Nooooooooooooo.
“To defeat the left, expose the left”
Exactly. Just like any other bully. Isn’t it amazing that the same tactics that work on the playground work on a national scale with an entire segment of the media?
I don't even know what that goofy mystical statement even means, but the video with the calmly maniacal turkey slaughterer behind her was one of the funniest videos I've ever seen. It was like a South Park scene come alive in the real world.
I am really glad to see someone treat the media for what they are. They are the enemy. During one of Sarah’s speeches, she made note of the media going into the tank for a “certain candidate” and the crowd started chanting “NBC, NBC, NBC” There are a lot of us who see the media as an arm of the dimrat party. Good for her.
It seems that oil money, like dead cheese, attracts rats.
The lower 48 have even more of the same problems with no annual check.
And according to my liberal history of America,
we bought the Alaskan territory so that we
could keep all humans from exploiting the
pristine wilderness to use its resources.
“Sarah should have her own blog where she communicates more at length. She should also have her own youtube channel.”
Maybe this will happen once she finishes up as governor. I imagine she would have had a flurry of goofy ethics complaints had she attempted such a venture while in office.
Sigh - I do not get an oil profits check. Oil companies get oil profits.
Here, read more about the PFD - and what it is and is not.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alaska_Permanent_Fund
http://www.apfc.org/home/Content/home/index.cfm - these are the folks that run the Corparation - check the history link.
For the record, over half of the PFD payments wind up going to the FedGov as income taxes - it is the single biggest source of dough for the taxman.
Shame the folks in Califlower won’t drill for their own oil but won’t and so send there money up here.
What's that state motto?
LOL
I love to hear all about the ‘pristene ANWR’ needing protection. Almost the entire slope shore is covered by junk left from the FedGov.

So, you are in Wasilla ? thats cool.
So Sarah has read Levin’s latest book! Good.
LOL
I see you are from California - is it warm this year?
I would also like to thank you for the money you send up here with every gallon of gas purchased, we can sure use it.
BTW. you got the Alaska state motto wrong - maybe you slept thru that lesson.
So, in the sprit of FReeper helping FReeper, check out http://www.enchantedlearning.com/usa/states/alaska/
It is a site designed for primary school students - now you can catch up on your lessons while learning more about Alaska..
You really need to lighten up and have more fun, maybe come to where the national bird isn't head lice.
He does, and it is. Or he has someone else do the posting.
Indeed. She's going to polish her fundamentals first, then move on to more heady stuff me thinks. She is doing her homework just as so many have said she needs to do. I'd do just about anything to be a close cultural adviser on her campaign. I would carry FReeper water directly to her doorstep.
Maybe Sarah looked at the odds.
With NBCCBSABCCNNMSNBC, she faces 100% opposition from the vile moonbats.
On twitter, it's about 50% opposition from the vile moonbats, and about 50% enthusiastic supporters. She doesn't even have to read the messages either.
Get in line, pal. ;)
