It's not actually state-owned land.

I'm not sure I understand this completely, but I think that means that Alaska gets 90% of the revenue from the leases paid to the Federal government. And I think that is on TOP of the additional profit taxes were were talking about before!
Mo' money! Mo' money! Mo' money!
90% of the lease revenue on Federal lands!
Plus a profit tax on oil companies passed on to all of us consumers as more expensive fuel costs!
Plus a beggars cup held out to the Feds for $1.75 return on every $1 they send to the Feds!
And they just redistribute that wealth to the citizens of Alaska in the form of annual checks of $2000 a person, bonus checks of $1200 per person, and gas cards for $100 free gas per month!
Try to put some lipstick on THAT pig!

So far, Kush, you are the only conservative to reposnd honestly to this idea that Palin has not necessarily acted as a true "fiscal conservative." Thanks for that! (Even if you did call me a dickfarm, whatever the hell that is.)
