You need to re-read the article. Now that Palin has made the trip to Dallas to grovel and lick Exxon's boot, it would appear that Palin is going to re-negotiate. And this article is trying to spin that so it doesn't make Palin look bad.

"negotiating was always part of the timeline"

"Negotiating fiscal certainty on taxes with producers is part of building a pipeline"

Even tho Palin was in this Mexican standoff with the producers for a very, very, long time, it was all part of her ultimate plan.

How much fiscal certainty do you think she will give them?

Apparently Jay Ramras was on a local talk show up there this afternoon and refused to address the question and simply was doing a bunch of name-calling. He called the host (Eddie Burke) a "pimp" for the Governor and blasted the author of the piece and the website (C4P) as anti-semitic (Ramras is Jewish) and that "out-of-staters" should just stay out of Alaska business.

Seems R.A. Mansour is over the target...LOL.

I heard that. Ramras was totally unhinged. I agree...R.A. Mansour struck a raw nerve. All Ramras could do was change the subject and call people names. He even made the argument that it was OK for a member of the Alaska legislature to be unethical because they are “citizen legislators”. I’m not making this up.

LOL...well I hope they post the audio of that dude over there tonight so we can all hear it. Sounds like a “FReeper keeper”. :)

“He buys $172,388.95 worth of BP stock, then endeavors to trash AGIA and promote BP. You don’t think that’s a problem?”

No he won’t have a problem with that because any loon that hates Palin is a friend of Mr. Ficklin.

I don’t need to re-read it.

You’re full of BS.

All Palin’s negotiating was and will be public and transparent.

Unlike the state rep. featured in the article.

You Slick Mitt supporters are lame. Where is your outrage at the rep in the article.

It doesn’t matter, Sarah, if she chooses, will be th next president of the USA.
Chew on that.

He’s one of the liberal pets here on FR. Just like MurryMom is.

It is like there are two classes of citizens now in America.

Ding, we have a winner! Wow, I enjoy reading responses where, on occassion, someone swerves into the truth- head on, too. Thanks.

The protected class and the un-protected class. Our (recent) committment to equal outcomes has created this dichotomy. If you don't work for government, you're unprotected. If you do, or don't work at all, (excuse my redundancy) you are protected.

Whatever Sarah works out with the gas producers will have one thing in common: more gas for the lower 48, as she has stated. Alaskans should be concerned that her efforts aren't just a 'buy-in' for a place at the national table we could call the Big Poker Tournament-2012.

Getting the thing done seems a high priority for Sarah. Where the 'chips' fall when all is done is another thing. Right now, I'd be uncomfortable sitting across the table from her. Unless I lived in Alaska- her home.

All my years here and I did not know that.

MurryMom is at last more honest.

Still, I say shout him down, drown him out.

During the primaries I thought Mitt looked very good. Same with Huckabee. I never considered McCain compared to these two. During the debates, Mitt and Mike took on a local complexion that left me wondering how we were going to take on Hillary or Barack.

Mitt's Massachusettes roots, planted firmly in Kennedy soil, seemed to work against him (but then again, who could get elected governor in this lib-pile without tossing bones to collectivists? See Arnold, see California, see Spot Run).

Mike had the communication skills I liked. I think he understood best that America is made-up of individuals, not collectives. Not sure what his weakness was but maybe whipping out the Bible did him in.

Ironically, his biblical background has now been replaced by a Koranic fascist bent on advancing totalitarianism over democracy (which is no guarantee of freedom, but it's a start- see Iran, see Ahmanutjob, see Spot Get Shot).

There may only be certain places where a true conservative may be grown. Like avacadoes, the climate has to be right- Way Right. Anyone within ground zero (a hundred miles) of a major Blue City ought to be suspect.

This is not to say a good conservative ought be a 'hick', just that they be 'homegrown'. That way, you can attest to the fact that cross-pollination (Rino-ism) has been alleviated.

It's a good thing eight years limits one's exposure to Washington D.C. After that, it's anyone's guess what feakish fruit will set on the once 'conservative' stalk. Take a look at those who've been there many, many years and you'll see I'm right. Franken-patriots.

For the Left, it's much simpler. They elect parasites. Weeds that keep getting bigger and better at sapping nutrients from our Nation's garden. 2010 is Roundup time.

2012, well if conditions are ripe we'll be planting an heirloom variety- true to form for many years to come.
