Wow, Time Magazine, the opinion rag of the Democrats. Man, that story sounded like it was written by folks who had some real resentment issues.

One of the reasons it is never good to say (or write) anything in anger. The fact that this was even published in its current form speaks volumes for the management of Time. Wait, you mean maybe if they say it in an angry way, and make it seem like she is really trying to act like some elitest snob (from Alaska), and is a hypocrite, that will make people more inclined to take the story seriously...

Just in case you were wondering where the federal money went:

Here's a good PDF with a breakdown also:

Another article from USA Today:

And one other good article on how drilling up there benefits the Federal coffers:

Great Times article.

The Times has always had a good reputation over the years for covering the important news without bias.

I wonder if Todd drives drunk with the kids in the car too? You betcha. There's nothing else to do in Alaska!

Speaking of not having a life...

How many non-registered aliases do you post under? Oh wait, silly question.

Back to the facts - or do you have any? Guess not.

What would be hilarious is if they did a story on Cindy McCain's life.
