DO YOU THINK WE EXAGGERATE?

Dear Reader: Today, November 29, 2010 is the deadline the federal government has established for giving your opinion on whether the Chukchi Sea Lease Sale process should go forward. (Send us your Comments and we’ll post them here.) Secretary Ken Salazar (NGP Photo-r), the Obama Administration and their activist allies have done everything possible to delay/derail this process. Alaska Governor Sean Parnell’s (NGP Photo-l) Administration has consistently defended the state against Federal overreach. Sidelining energy exploration in and around Alaska will terminate the State’s potential for economic survival for the many reasons we have discussed here over the last two years. Eliminating Alaska’s energy contribution to the Nation will disrupt the recovery, endanger national security, further debase the currency and export hundreds of thousands of American jobs–along with our national wealth–to countries that are committed to resource development.
Don’t think you don’t know enough to comment; you do! If you’ve already commented, distribute these links to friends and family. Ask your elected officials: legislators, mayors, assembly members if they’ve commented. Have your say by using one of these websites:
1. Consumer Energy Alliance, and
2. Resource Development Council for Alaska
Below, we note a few of the comments readers have provided us. Send us more and we’ll post them! We also have evidence that thousands of Alaskans and friends throughout America are commenting–both for and against Alaska energy! What shall it be? What say you?
Respectfully,
Dave Harbour
