Attention Sarah Palin.

No not FOR you, FROM you. I realize that you're the journalist major, and you read everything you can get your hands on (you can't remember the NAMES of them, but you read them.)Have you seen this?

Emmonak man seeks food airlift to combat economic crisis

A combination of extreme cold and high fuel prices has created a humanitarian crisis for the village of Emmonak, according to resident Nicholas Tucker.

In a letter sent out as a cry for help, Tucker describes economic conditions in which families are rationing food and warmth for themselves and their children in the Southwest Alaska village of 800.

The situation could easily worsen — extreme cold that arrived early this winter and stuck around means heating fuel must soon be flown in, which residents fear will push the price from $7.83 per gallon to $9 a gallon or more.

In the letter, Tucker, who calls himself a longtime advocate for the region, describes the desperate circumstances faced by several families. He learned about their situation after putting out a VHF radio announcement in the village asking families to describe how they were weathering the fuel crisis in rural Alaska.

Tucker requests a “massive airlift” of food and said money from churches, state agencies and other groups is needed to offset the high fuel prices. The 100 gallons of free heating fuel for every home in Alaska Native communities that has been promised by oil company Citgo will help. But it won’t be enough because it will last only one month, he said.

Tucker originally circulated the letter on Jan. 10 at a meeting in Emmonak in which Lower Yukon River villages discussed ways to lower fuel prices next spring. The letter has also been sent to some churches, the Food Bank of Alaska and officials with Calista Corp., the Native corporation for the region which owns this and other rural newspapers.

Bristol Bay Times, wow that's a toughy to remember. If only you has some way to remember it.
Also, Ms. Energy Expert, stay off of Fox on Inauguration night. It's not about you. It never will be. You will be remembered as the attention whore that rallied people against the first African American President. Smiling as your mindless followers called for his blood. Pawn Todd's silk boxers and all of the rest of the clothes that you raped the Republican supporters to get and buy your people some oil. Stay in your own state, SHUT UP, and do your job.

Note to anyone with questions: Yes I know the election is over. I'll shut up when she does. I will shut up when my daughter isn't taught at school that Obama's idea for youth pride and service to their communities is equal to Hitler's Youth. I will shut up when, people stop threatening to kill him because of all the lies perpetuated in hate and ignorance. I will shut up when people stop bitching about how he's failing us when he isn't even President yet. I will shut up when I not only voted but threw myself into this election with my money, time, and harassment to and from family members and my property vandalized. I will shut up when all of the critics of every new idea (because the old ones worked so VERY well... NOT) run for office themselves. Yeah I don't think I will be shutting up anytime soon. As long as there are haters, ignorance, and racism. If my opinion offends, either don't read it OR study up. I'm almost always right. Ask anyone.
