Having lived in Alaska and worked as a Game Biologist in Alaska, and having hunted in Alaska, I can say that hunting accidents are not rare. They do happen. You just never know. I certainly hope Murkowski isn’t a hunter, and if she is, I hope she is very very very careful.

Just a reminder to anyone with some spare time, a little motivation, and an impish twinkle in your eye:

Alaska has no protection for elected officials against private law suits. This is the mechanism that was used to try to bankrupt Sarah Palin and eventually drove her from office.

Any ideas for a Murkowski ethics challenge (unfounded is just fine, btw)?

Turnabout is not only fair play, but necessary.
