I felt exactly the same way about that "line in the sand" statement. NOW they are trying to make it look like they are taking a stand when in fact they are not. Paying two cents for that building is TOO much. And WHY, if the deal was illegal and the lease invalid, are the developers still being dealt with, why are w...

Let's not forget that vital internet is being pulled from libraries to help pay for this Ivory Tower. And I have to live like a pauper. For the Golden Them. For my hated republicans to sit in lavish chairs. I am angry beyond words. Is there an office for Bill Allen in there?

Unfortunately, white people have no monopoly on bad behavior. Human nature is self-serving, greedy, and violent, regardless of skin color. You're outraged by injustice. I am too. But how far do we extend our sympathies, and what kind of reckoning can we insist upon? History is like quicksand. The Catholics and the Jews...

Never imagined, ever, that Neuman would be the voice of reason in this fiasco. The Tajmahawker is the iconic symbol of fiscal irresponsibility but the GOP majority in their vain gloriously entitled minds don't/can't see that.

Calm down Andi; there may be a silver lining to this cloud - if they own the building, they can also take unused parts of the buildings and have rental/lease income. Take a deep breath. Besides, we know people go to the library computers to shop online and get on Facebook, that situation will work itself out.

That's the problem, our "authorities" are not "proper". The study they paid for showed this to be the most expensive option. The lease was already ruled invalid by a judge. But our "authorities" are in the pocket of the developer and ALEC and the NRA and put we Alaskans last.
