Is this what is happening in the foremost First World country by your reply - you (August) won't expand your knowledge on pertinent issues because the writer cites facts which you either cannot dispute, or, like the ostriches in my country, by sticking their heads into the sand, hope to go away.

Or perhaps i have just gotten back from a weeks vacation and don't particularly feel like defending Palin against an Op Ed article written by someone with an obvious axe to grind.

I'm sure that as our Presidential election progresses these issues will be brought up repeatedly *if* they have any legs. Until then i will reserve judgment aside from gently chiding you for posting such an obviously biased article (complete with cartoon).

@Subman1: Damn good question. Don't hold your breath for a straight answer though.

@UnderseaLcpl: Well said, I agree 100%. But far from moderate though i must say that if I were Alaskan I'd be just about fed up with do gooders enjoying the fruits of life in the drilled and developed lower 48 telling me what i can and can't do with the resources on my land.
