Pipelines for Alaskans

Alaska is a resource treasure trove. It is difficult to access and develop that treasure. The environmental extremists will fight tooth-and-nail for every last inch of the state to remain undeveloped.

Governor Palin is doing what is in the best interest of the people of her state and of this nation by working to develop the necessary infrastructure to gain access to those hard-to-reach resources. I applaud her willingness to face the pressure of the anti-development crowd. I hope that she ensures that the development will be done in a manner that is sensitive to some of the critical habitats that could be affected. It's all about balance.
