Why does Sarah Palin hate puppies? Apparently they have little to do with “faith, family and freedom.” Forget the whole “man’s best friend” thing, and that Fido actually means faithful, and Americans tend to like their family dogs.  As the black cat is to the wicked witches of legend, so the dog has become the [...]

Don Young… what can you say? He’s Alaska’s one and only congressman, and he’s been Alaska’s one and only congressman since 1973.  That’s 38 regular years, which feels like 95 in Don Young years.  He defies explanation. He’s sort of a combination of the old curmudgeon in the neighborhood that sits on the porch telling [...]

Back when the Anchorage Assembly Chair was Dan Sullivan, he presided over a “meeting-before-the-meeting” of the Assembly. This is a meeting they have before their regular Tuesday Assembly meeting to basically get the organizational flotsam and jetsam out of the way…present amendments, new ordinances, etc…so that time isn’t eaten up on Tuesdays with “making the [...]

The Democratic Senatorial Campaign Committee (DSCC) released their latest commercial for the benefit of Scott McAdams, describing Lisa Murkowski’s mischaracterization of her political stances: The video is great and the message is spot-on. This gives me the opportunity to talk about a piece of Senator Frank Murkowski’s history where we can see Lisa following in [...]

Below is the (draft) press release I will be sending out in final form later today.  As you can see, I’ve been working hard in the basement office! ———————————————————————————————————— The Alaska Public Offices Commission accepted a complaint filed by Linda Kellen Biegel. It is against five members of the Campaign to Re-elect Alaska Representative Bill Thomas, Jr. [...]

By Linda Kellen Biegel Sarah Palin’s accusations regarding the “Liberal, Lamestream Media” being “out to get her” are no secret, especially after publication of her first work of fiction, “Going Rogue.” However, there is a less-published (by credible sources) accusation that goes like this: There is a so-called “Alaska Mafia” of Democrats who take orders [...]

  The supporters have been rallied, the big announcement has been made and Senator Lisa Murkowski is off and running on her whirlwind write-in campaign! So what are her actual chances of winning? 1) There is the problem of her name. Lisa Murkowski…doesn’t exactly roll off the tongue or the pen.  However, it looks like a write-in [...]

September 6th’s Anchorage Daily Newspublished an interview by reporter Kyle Hopkins with both Alaska US Senate Candidates Scott McAdams (D) and Joe Miller (R). In it, Scott McAdams said this about his opposition: Speaking on a cell phone from Fairbanks, McAdams said “reasonable, independent and moderate people are frightened right now by the extremity of [...]

By Linda Kellen-Biegel Democratic Candidate for US Senate, Scott McAdams, did an excellent interview with KTVA’s Matt Felling Tuesday evening, not realizing that Senator Lisa Murkowski was waiting in the wings to concede to Joe Miller immediately afterwards. Miller is now officially the Republican Candidate, which provides an opportunity unheard of in the 49th State…the [...]

Never before has so much horror and humor appeared in the same email. Yes, Glenn Beck is apparently coming to Anchorage on September 11. And yes, they sent an email to the Alaska Democratic Party to see if perhaps they’d like to be a sponsor of this awesome event. OK, I know that Alaska Democrats [...]

~Thick and fast they came at last, and more, and more and more!~ Now that the Legislative Session is over, things slowly return to normal… whatever that is.  So, here’s a quick round up of some of the things blipping on the radar. Easing the Congestion Finally.  Anyone who lives in or drives through midtown [...]

We didn’t know he was a teabagger when we invited him. (Think Guy Noir, Private Eye.) At last week’s Moore Up North production meeting I was feeling the optimism of spring. The last few weeks have been intense shows about aerial wolf hunting and the Chuitna Coal Mine. “Let’s keep it light, next week is [...]

Perhaps it’s because today is the worst day of the year. I should clarify- it’s the worst day of the year weather-wise. It always happens. AL-WAYS. The snow melts, the sun shines, the sky is blue, the birds of spring come back – pigeons, seagulls, Canada geese. And you start thinking… maybe this year it [...]

[Paul Honeman called in to the Shannyn Moore Show, and my notes are at the end of the post] Nothing says right wing conservative like a last-minute campaign smear! Mysterious fliers have appeared on doorknobs in East Anchorage this morning smearing candidate Paul Honeman.  Honeman is running against conservative candidate Adam Trombley in that race.  [...]

Sarah Palin’s “other” TV show is already plagued with scandal.  I’m shocked.  Shocked, I say. Her Foxumentary “Real American Stories” is…. wait for it… fake. The show was touted as Sarah Palin interviewing celebrities including Toby Keith, Jack Welch (formerly of GE), and rapper LL Cool J.   The show debuts tomorrow. Only one problem.  LL [...]
