It's funny thinking the "honorable" Ted Stevens would oppose listing Alaska's polar bears as a threatened species. If anyone is a threatened Alaska species, it is definitely Stevens!
The archaic politician is certainly endangered politically with his denial of the endangerment of our precious polar bears due his denial of the global warming effects of carbon emissions from the oil produced at the very place that is endangering our polar wildlife. He and his cronies are long overdue for retirement and new, well-informed politicians must start turning the tide of their reckless ways and arcane mindset.
It's a new world, and we need new, progressive change without corruption at the helm of Alaska's precious resources and wildlife. I say out with the old and in with the new leaders who are not for the misery of greed at the expense of future sustainability. Let's start with running the Republicans out of office and start anew for our future generations and the sustaining of a renewable and healthy earth for our children and their children from now into perpetuity.
