one of these days it would be really nice to see a state tell these feds to pizz off.

Alaska Gov. Sean Parnell (R) is slamming the Interior Department’s designation of large Arctic regions as “critical habitat” for polar bears threatened by climate change, alleging the decision will slow oil-and-gas drilling.

Gee, Wally, you'da thunk they knew that beforehand wouldn'tya?

[Nachum]

The list, ping

Let me know if you would like to be on or off the ping list

Let’s see...who’s money is really behind this? Ahh...once again Saudi Arabia. They enjoy having us as energy serrfs. Their muslim boy is in the white hut.

Folks it ALWAYS comes down to money. Abortion? Big money in baby killing. “Environmental” - it is really money.

[Army Air Corps]

Ping.

[RC2]

Agreed! States need to stand up and say “Screw you Obama, we’re drilling. It’s our oil and our land, not the Federal Governments.”

[bray]

Can we see their studies showing the polar bear needs these set asides? Where is the research? Oh yeah, it was to stop oil drilling and exploration to starve American industry.

Pray for America

[Hugin]

Wasn’t that the point?

[muawiyah]

The House should pass legislation that requires the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service managers and staff from GS 9 and above visit the polar bear habitat for at least 2 days each year and ascertain the health of at least one bear on each trip.

Sure, it'll be a great trip to Alaska, but to avoid hurting the bears the legislation will have prohibited the use of remote viewing devices or sedatives.

This will be an upfront, close to top level validation process.

Theres probably to many Polar Bears.. they are over populated.. so some will starve.. Better open the season on them.. they would make some killer rugs...

Be better for all the remaining Polar Bears.. and Seals too..

A nation that cannot produce from abundant natural resources.
That ships it's manufacturing base to foreign countries.
That imports most of its food.
That depends on nations who harbor malice for its energy.
That borrows its currency into existance creating perpetual debt.
That views its citizens as the enemy.
That elects unqualified individuals who scorn the nations traditions to the highest office.
That refuses to secure its boarders from an invading hoard who are intent on pilliging the Treasury.
(feel free to add to this. It can grow to be a lengthy list)

IS DESTINED TO FAIL

[wendy1946]

I say again, there needs to be a threat on the table to simply shoot and kill ALL polar bears in Alaska. THAT would eliminate the problem.

Oil is what makes capitalism work and provides free people with the freedom to come and go as they please.

The communists hate capitalsm and need to control the freedoms of the "stinky" (Harry Reid) unwashed masses.

The communists have taken control of the governments around the world, including the United States.

I yearn for the day that a state tells the Federal Govt to remove its buildings and people from the environs of the state EXCEPT for the ones specifically necessary to provide what they are legally responsible for in the 10th amendment. What would it be? Defense, special teams and the the QB’s? This crap of them owning and controlling unused land has to end. You and I both know that it is going to be used, if it hasn’t already, as collateral for the Federal debt.

Sarah Palin wrote an op-ed arguing against this when she was governor:

[NormsRevenge]

Never have so many elected officials worked so hard to tear this nation apart.. from energy to religion, from science to freedoms in general..

and they want to do even more..

[CincyRichieRich]

Well, Duh!

Where is Palin on this?

Where are the new house and senate members?

Yeah, I know, they haven’t taken office yet. Facebook. Twitter. WSJ ads. There are a lot of ways to get attention w/out the MSM putting a camera in front of you. So far, I haven’t heard a peep from anyone and each day one more Jenga block gets pulled out.
