We have been fighting. The list of broken promises goes back to Statehood. Google ANILCA, Alaska Native land Claims, Prudhoe Bay etc. Too often we Alaskans have been depicted as the greedy, blue eyed Arabs of the north. Add to that the international environmental organizations with hundreds of millions of dollars and slick lawyers in their employ and you can see what an uphill battle we have. Instead of fighting us and buying into a liberal line of ignorance, conservatives should help us work to de-fund the environmental extremists that are blocking our progress.
Well said!
