First and foremost, I did
vote for Mark Begich during his first term attempt at unseating
incumbent U.S. Senator Ted Stevens in exile. Basically, Ted didn't
have a future in politics once he became friends with Bill Allen and
the bimbos let him down. But today, there is only a single reason as
too why Begich may never find again my support. I will get to that
later during this campaign opinion broadcast. But for the record my
dissatisfaction as too why there will come a “No Vote”, Begich's
record of achievement surpasses that of MoanaLisa MurCowpie and Don
Young's combined, in a heartbeat! Take note: I did not say “vote of
non-confidence”! In that category alone, there is no comparison to
what Begich has accomplished for Alaska. He single handedly opposed
the military cut-backs for Eielson Air Force base, once again on the
BRAC wish list - because of Begich's ideologies to keep Alaska from
collapse through an economic slowdown showdown. And because of that
steadfast conviction to keep Alaska a military state that continued
to have bragging rights, now that base is a contender for the new age
F-35 squadron. So talk about an about face Begich can take full
credit for! Remember, still on a single all-important thing Begich
has accomplished as a U.S. Senator for “ALL” Alaskans. At
Eielson, now that it is known that base will remain part of the North
Defense “shield”, it means a new power plant will be built
because the existing plant is running under an “expired” EPA air
quality shield – because it was destined for the wrecking ball, so
the EPA was very lenient. Yes, a new plant will be built that uses
“dirty” coal from Healy yet designed with energy efficiency in
mind by using clean coal combustion technologies – developed by
funds earmarked by Ted Stevens many years ago. This is all part of
Begich's plan of attack, as we have already invested in the
technology so he has made the point of no turning back. Where in hell
are the other “bums” with respect to looking out for Alaska's
interest? Too busy with the lousy lobby I guess. Bottom-line, Begich
is looking out for Alaska, even if many of those jobs at the base
gainfully employ “Tea-Party” voters - it doesn't matter to
Begich. Along with base jobs continuing to supply pay checks with
decent wages, it means more then enough jobs for the interior mining
industry and increases in rail traffic for the Alaska Rail Road –
which is good because with the Flint Hills Refinery shutting down,
Casey Jones Sheffield was getting a nose bleed. Yes, Begich's
approach is in effect fueling the very same group that is adamant to
defeating him at the voting booth – ironic, how silly! So this
“one” effort by Begich means thousands of jobs, many for the long
run as it would automatically mean a 12-year contract with Uncle Sam.
And the trickle down theory, it creates a local supporting
infrastructure that was almost lost for this base – once a very
important outpost and maybe we will see the same in the future –
but that all depends on who is pushing for it. Any newcomer will
loose focus, because it was Begich's idea not a very good idea and
Mr. Newbie will go into training with the cowards. And to make more
head-way in support of Alaska's importance for military superiority,
Begich single handedly has ignited an interest in bringing a Coast
Guard infrastructure to the North Slope, due the ice melting away.
Maybe a “Bravo” and that means jobs for the local native
villagers and we were most recently informed that part of that deal
entails building several world-class ice-breakers, to be stationed in
the North. Said again, thousands of jobs here and there. So it is
Begich that is looking after Alaska in the “Daddy War Bucks”
category. The reason he may not get my vote again – as I believe
WAR is an outdated excuse for jobs over peace. And get this, Begich has
convinced the “brass” to not abandoned the controversial “Missile
Defense Shield” strategy and funding may be on the way for an
additional 18-rocket holding silos, to be built alongside those
already in the preparedness stage in Delta. That means hundreds of
construction and engineering jobs for life, another infusion into the
local and state wide economies. So while Begich has been doing
everything right and gaining popularity amongst his colleagues as
another “Ted”, like maybe he learned from Ted, well while Begich
is working his ass off for “Alaska” the record will also indicate
with clarity how MoanaLisa and Don Young have been snoozing-off
while Begich does the “Dirty Work” - like MoanaLisa christening a
“Ferry To Nowhere” and Don getting his “Bridge To Nowhere”.
So yes, the asshole running against Begich, he is a bonafide asshole that knows
how to lie when taking shots at Begich's record of achievement – so
will fit right in with the faction that is trying its best to
discredit Begich. Be it known if you are too busy “texting” then
to follow what goes on in D.C., only Begich has shown the gusto that
supports many of Alaskan's ideologies with respect to representation,
above and beyond he goes I should say. Look, Begich realized that it
would be a tough road ahead, trying to fill the shoes of the “Hulk”
- he has not failed Alaska in that demand. So to think that a guy
named Sullivan that is leading in the polls because he is backed by
enormous wealth has more to offer, forget about it as the payback
schedule makes sure Alaskans will be in the running, but not first in
line and somewhere way down the line. In the meantime jobs and
opportunities will evaporate, military funding will get cut and if
you elect Sullivan, the $54-Billion state reserve will be on the raid
by the Juneau legislators. Said again, if you oppose WAR, then that
is the only reason to vote Begich out of office. The “War Machine”
lives on, and Begich supports it here in Alaska – as it means jobs
and with government cutbacks now a forever reality, there may be no
more “Nowhere” projects. For Alaska, it appears military spending is the "saving grace", especially as oil bucks run dry. And Begich was also instrumental in
making sure Alaska received its over-share of “loot” with Obama's
stimulus program. As most of the nation enjoyed $800 bucks per
capita, Alaska realized close to $2000 per tax paying individual –
because Begich was at the forefront of that “Recovery” handout.
Take it or leave it, we took home a whole lot more then others. And
Don Young and MoanaLisa cursed this program! So you best think twice
before rocking the boat with new blood. I need not go into any more
convincing detail as too why Begich will not see my vote, as I think
I have made my point of why he deserves another term – he is
committed to make Alaska a military stronghold, as the only money
available seems to be in that category – gory? It's your choice. I
beg to differ and will vote my conscience, hoping Sullivan has less
of a “War Lord” mentality – but I doubt that be the case, so I
will reserve my vote. But if you are all for “Military Superiority”
here in the 49er, Begich is your man! And if one of the 49% that
realy on Uncle Sam writing a paycheck for working at one of the many
bases throughout Alaska, you have no other choice – unless
un-employment is of interest. Yet if “Give Peace a Chance” is
your fancy, best find another state to call home!
