As a grandchild of a late World War II veteran Colonel Bob James Swenson who lost his hearing while serving in Korea from 1944-1946. Currently some NFL players are kneeling at the national anthem to protest against racial justice with law enforcement. They believe that America is allowing this behavior by cops. Allow these players to stand for what they believe in they are affecting them in the game of football.
If you search this blog under Public Broadcasting I call for government to stop fund this media. Planned Parenthood can also survive without public funding. Here is the truth even though the Democrats, AARP and other liberal special interest will not tell you is. Federal funding only consist of less than 10 percent of the total budget of these organizations. Public Broadcasting and Planned Parenthood are mostly funded by private donations and endowments. Clinics will not shut down due to lack of funding and Public TV will not go to test pattern if funding goes away. To save taxpayers money let the consumer make donations to public broadcasting and Planned Parenthood. Why should I have to pay for family planning services and a broadcasting network. Planned Parenthood will still provide services for female and male patients at a reduced cost due to charter organization model which based on income of individual. Lack of or no funding will no change the services of this organization. Public Broadcasting will continue to provide quality program without federal funds and news coverage that other networks can not provide. I do not pay for CNN, MSNBC, NBC, CBS and ABC News why should I pay for NPR and PBS News. If PBS and NPR do not have federal funding they can actually do quality news better not on taxpayers dime.
Democrat lawmakers need to understand that since the Unaffordable Care Act was passed in 2010. Health Insurance premiums have not decreased without subsidies from the taxpayer. If you save taxpayers allow more competition in this network and allow people to buy insurance across state lines this will lower premiums. This will really help in border places like in Eastern Oregon could buy insurance from an Idaho retailer or a North Idaho customer buy insurance from a Spokane insurance agent since most North Idaho people go to Spokane then Boise for services. Competition lowers prices the current model does not allow for competition and insurance premiums have tripled under the exchange system. Quit defending this act that have tripled premiums. The current act requires funding to places like Planned Parenthood which could survive without federal funding.
Late Sunday night Pacific Standard time one of the largest mass shootings happened in Las Vegas at the Mandalay Bay Casino Hotel on the Vegas strip at the Jason Aldean concert on the 32nd floor. Please pray for Vegas and play an Aldean song tonight like Flyover states. Maybe this will overshadow those NFL protest I will be using my Granddad Swenson's spirit to address today in another blog piece.
People like Shannyn Moore and environmentalist mostly outside of Alaskans like my home state of Washington. Where a junior senator my favorite liberal senator who refuses to understand to Alaska is not America's national Park. Here with you people. We have no management in the White House. His name is Donald Trump and his point is Ryan Zinke who represented Montana a Western State he understands Alaska. I felt Sarah Palin should of this my opinion then she would maybe protected Pebble due to family fishing camp. Watch Sarah Palin's Alaska you will understand this. Please understand Alaska is not America's National Park. Let Alaska decide its fate you part the reason the state is still in a late recession. Message to you environmentalist leave or Alaskans will make you leave by force.
Common Sense Alaska Democrats would like the following Democrats to run for Alaska Governor. Alaska can not live with four more years of Bill Walker and Byron Mallott who have stolen the peoples Permanent Fund Dividend and wants to enact an income tax on Alaska, He also wants to not bring oil production in the state unless they more in fees to drill in Alaska's field. Plus if you run it will make Bill Walker a one term governor. Please run before the actual Alaska Democrats want a real candidate not be sold a bunch of party elites.
Bill Wielechowski will restore the Permanent Fund Dividend will allow the economy to return.
Ethan Berkowitz believes being the Mayor of Anchorage was a just a stepping stone to a higher office. Rumor is he will not be running for another term. The progressives already have Forrest Dunbar the next Mark Begich to be the next rising star in the Democrat party he could probably win a citywide election for Mayor of Anchorage. Governors mansion is where he really wants to reside.
Mark Begich is well liked by most rank and file Democrats. Plus he runs Bill Walker will be a one term governor for sure.
Alaska Democractic Central Committee has endorsed Bill Walker's reelection for governor. They are not planning on running a serious candidate. Bill Walker thinks like the Alaska House Majority. He wants to eliminate the Alaska Permanent Fund, Alaska statewide sales tax and income tax. He also wants to continue Obamacare in the state. To save yourself from four more years of this vote Michael Dunleavy for Governor.
