Obama walks a fine line on climate in Alaska, and so do Alaskans

InsideClimate: President Obama hopes his three-day tour of Alaska this week highlights the devastating impacts of climate change in the Arctic, even though it comes just two weeks after he approved a permit for Shell to drill for oil in the Chukchi Sea. That move has generated ire from many environmentalists who see this trip as hypocritical. But the conflicting actions demonstrate the grey area Obama is attempting to navigate around climate change: He is fighting for global warming action, particularly in the...

It seems that Darth Cheney and his demon spawn daughter are on a book tour these days, pimping their latest masterpiece: Exceptional: Why the World Needs a Powerful America , otherwise known as Dick and Liz pretend that all of America's problems started when the evil Kenyan usurper got elected. I hate to break it to them, but other than in the wingnut echo chamber that still thinks the Bush administration could do no wrong, there's not enough polish in the world to shine up the giant turd his administration left behind known as the invasion of Iraq.

Hill: President Obama is pointing toward Alaska as tangible evidence of the immediate danger climate change presents the U.S. This is all real, Obama said Saturday in his weekly address. This is happening to our fellow Americans right now. In fact, Alaskas governor recently told me that four villages are in imminent danger and have to be relocated, he said, citing Gov.
