They’re going to criticize me no matter what I do, so I might as well dance.” – Bristol Palin Race car great Mario Andretti once said, “If everything’s under control then you’re going too slow.” In Alaska, we have two speeds in the summertime: fast and faster – that’s because Alaskan summers are so short and sweet. We always try to cram it all in before the leaves change and snow flies again. Seasons change so quickly up here that we’re full-speed ahead to capture every minute under the Midnight Sun doing what we love to do in the great...

Network news and the internet were abuzz with the report and video by Los Angeles CBS affiliate KCBS of a reported missile launch late Monday afternoon -- around 5 PM. Both the Air Force and the Navy denied they had any missiles launches at the time. According to CBS News the Defense Department remains baffled. "Nobody within the Department of Defense that we've reached out to has been able to explain what this contrail is, where it came from," Pentagon spokesman Col. Dave Lapan said. "So far, we've come up empty with any explanation." And they go on: "The FAA...

"not to just neutralize their nuclear program, but to sink their navy, destroy their air force and deliver a decisive blow to the Revolutionary Guard, in other words neuter that regime."

Gallup released its final polling on voter enthusiasm today, and the bottom line is that it’s record-breaking for midterm elections. In fact, for Democrats and their leaners, it’s the second-best enthusiasm level in a midterm election Gallup has seen at 44%, only topped by 2006′s 53% and their nine-point lead over the GOP in that wave election. The bad news for Democrats? Well …. Americans’ enthusiasm about voting exceeds the recent midterm election high set four years ago, with 50% of Americans and 53% of registered voters saying they are more enthusiastic than usual about voting in 2010. … The...

The Barack Hussein Obama COLB [Certification of Live Birth] that has been posted on the internet, first the DailyKos and then Fight The Smears and finally at FactCheck now been proven to be a fake, fabricated, and forged document. There is no doubt that the original is not an authentic State of Hawaii, Department of Health issued document. Here is an example of a Hawaiian long form issued in September of 2010, a date where the Obama liars claim that Hawaii no longer issues what is presented below.

"All we want is the non-Muslims, at this point, off the lands of Muhammad. ... We want the kafirs out of it," Khattab said in one interview, using a term for infidels or Muslim nonbelievers. When asked if he wanted Islam to take over the world, his answer was unequivocal: "Of course I want it to ... and it will." To promote that...

Lansing, Mich. (AP) -- An assistant attorney general is using his personal blog to target the openly gay leader of the University of Michigan's student assembly, calling him a racist with a "radical homosexual agenda." The lawyer claims that when he's not at work, he has the right to say whatever he wants. But the vociferous criticism has raised questions of just how far a civil servant can go, and whether Andrew Shirvell's online attacks — which include putting a swastika over a gay pride flag in a photo of 21-year-old Chris Armstrong — should affect his job.

Useless Nations (UN) allow Iran Dictator Mad Man to Spew Hate in NYC Applause for Ahmadinejad September 23, 2010 - 5:39 PM | by: Eric Shawn He was greeted by applause when he walked into the United Nations General Assembly, and applauded again, even after questioning 9/11 and claiming that the American government may have been behind the attack. That’s right, applauded after questioning the motivation for the terrorist attacks, who was responsible for them, and essentially suggesting they were a U.S. plot.

Hugh Hewitt interviewed Senate minority leader John Boehner a few days ago, and could not get Boehner to commit to a rapid legislative agenda to repeal and reverse the democrat’s leftist legislative cramdown after the midterms in November. Boehner hemmed and hawed, sounding every bit like the establishment inside-the-beltway career politicians that got us into the dire economic mess that we’re in now. To make matters worse, Bill Kristol related to Hewitt on yesterday’s podcast that he asked a “high-ranking GOP leader” what their plans were, what they intended to do should the GOP take control of one or both...

A Mormon apostle recently used a unique avenue to share a gospel message. Elder Quentin L. Cook, of the Quorum of the Twelve Apostles, and Michael Otterson, managing director of the church public affairs department, both contributed a blog post to Patheos.com last week. Editors from the website, which is dedicated to religious and spiritual dialogue, asked The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints to provide a written perspective on the future of Mormonism. Both responses are available at: http://www.patheos.com/Topics/Future-of-World-Religions/Mormonism.html. Elder Cook's blog, titled "Partnering with Our Friends of Other Faiths," may likely be the first publicly posted blog...

Governor Sarah Palin ignited another media frenzy by accusing President Barack Obama of, er, not being man enough to stand against illegal immigration. The other night, Palin appeared on “Hannity” to defend her remarks in an interview that David Neiwert at Crooks & Liars objects to as glaringly inconsistent. And for once, he’s got a point. Palin first says that Obama’s not securing the border because he’s inexperienced and “in over his head.” But later, at Sean Hannity’s suggestion, the governor agrees that he’s doing it out of ideology and a desire to “fundamentally transform” America: So wait, which is...

Video from local news channel 8 (wishtv.com): People are refusing food grown on the property of the Dunham House because it's located on President Obama's ancestors land. The veggies grown there are intended to feed the hungry but some people won't take the free food because of the connection to Obama. Mr. President, you reap what you sow......pun intended!

Israel recently rolled-out the latest version of what's already considered the world's best unmanned aircraft, the IAI Heron. The new Israeli drone -dubbed Heron TP (Eitan in Hebrew)- has a wingspan almost as long as a Boeing 737... can stay in the air for over 36 hours... and is more than capable of reaching Iran. The 4.5 ton Heron TP carries a one-ton payload of bombs or missiles, and Iran's nuclear facilities are well within it's offensive range. But AWACS-style recon would be it's most logical role, as Israel is likely to to use manned and unmanned aircraft together on...
