I expect such gutless cowardly behavior from you. I expect you to post stupidity online, they run like a gutless coward when your stupidity is addressed with facts you cannot refute. You do stupidity and chicken*&^% better than anyone else in this forum. Run coward run.

Please, it is stereotyping to say that we just think of cartoonish Plains Indians. Now that we have that unpleasantness out of the way, can you teach me how to grow corn with the fish in the soil and your spiritual connection to the land?

This is just another round of legal obfuscation on the part of the Pebble Partnership---Giving their buddies in congress something to play ball with in an election year.

It seems to me that this issue should have been solved two years ago. A lot of talking and very little to no action. I refuse to live in Alaska with an income tax. Screw the dividend.

Faye Stewart II has a big challenge ahead of him. He's running in the Republican U.S. Senate primary and hopes to challenge incumbent U.S. Sen. Ron Wyden (D-Ore.) in the fall. Actually when you think about it, there is no challenge here at all. Bye Bye Faye.

I agree with everything you said, except the part about "both parties" "doing it endlessly." That's a false equivocation. The Republican Party is far and away the "winner" in the chronic obstructionism department. When it comes to unmitigated party-line blocking, the Dems aren't even in the game.
