The Dems are going to have a hard time explaining why Alaska's indigenous people's can't use their land anyway they like! If they want to drill for oil and sell it to us down here in the lower 48, I say GO FOR IT!

This is great news, and while theyre at it, they should put Tom Dasshole in a baby seal costume and air drop him into an eskimo village and let the locals beat the hell out of him.

Might be a small problem getting the oil out of the area without a pipeline permit.

Congress is unfairly denying Inupiat Natives the fundamental right to use their land.

Bump.

Great proposal.

If the Indians...(oops)...Native Americans can drill for dollars in casinos on their reservations, they ought to be able to drill for oil as well.

LOL
