Drilling in Alaska

[onejayhawk]

Artic drilling used to be a hot topic. Lately it has gotten so old that the most recent thread is a necro.

Not to be deterred, the Republicans have opened the topic once again, but very low profile.

It appears the GOP has gotten wandering vote Lisa Murkowsky into the fold on this one.

Couldn't be too low profile since I've heard about it on a half dozen national news shows over the last few days.
But then it was that demon leftist media accusing the Republicans of planet rape.

If it's only a half dozen, then it's very low profile. During the Bush administration it was front page news.

Yeah but these news stories didn't have to compete against Trump trying to cause WWII or everyone you used to like turning out to be sexual predators

Witness this thread. In the day there would be twenty posts by now.

And it was a successful foreign policy trip.

Al Franken. Wow.

Trump trying to cause WWII

Is Trump working on a time machine?

It should be, "Trump has a time machine working?" That's a question for the history board.

Forbes has a substantive article on Alaska oil generally. ANWR is just a piece of the puzzle, but I always thought it odd that the native population's opinion never had traction (they are in favor).
