In reply to the discussion: Alaska Legislature has lost their minds, and now they are threatening President Obama [View all]J_J_
(1,213 posts)54. look at this asshat blaming obama after he pushed the new tax bill

Because of Obamas glaring disconnect with Alaska, it is no matter to him the state is poised at the edge of a steep fiscal cliff, no matter oil production is stagnant or that prices have plummeted. It is no matter Alaska depends on oil for 90 percent of its revenues, that half the states economy and a third of its jobs depend on oil, no matter it is facing a $3.5 billion deficit.
