Palin's AG pick: "Washington D.C. is not friends with Alaska" (Feds are "bears and giants")

WAR: You don’t go to Washington D.C. anymore. Washington D.C. is not friends with Alaska. The General’s job is not to cause casualties with its own people. The General’s job is to win the war against the enemy. Alaskans should be working together.

Instead some people went off to Washington to try to get rights over others which was violative (sic) of our constitution. It wasn’t willing to handle it, in my opinion. And now we’ve got the federal government sticking its nose in the state of Alaska, and we need to realize that we’ve invited a giant to our state and that we need to work together to protect all of us from the giant.

But, you don’t invite the giant into your house, or the bear (if you want to say that) invite the bear in your house and expect not to get eaten up. We’re being eaten up and we need to get together.

1. He may not be AIP,

but he definitely leans in that direction. He's talking about subsistence rights here. He is firmly of the belief that rural Alaskans -- who are mostly Natives -- should not have a preference over urban sports hunters when it comes to fish and game.
