Joe Miller, California's favorite candidate in the running to be the Senator for the great state of Alaska. Update!

As anybody who has been paying even the slightest bit of attention to Alaska politics knows, Joe Miller won the Republican nomination to run for the Senate by squeaking past incumbent Lisa Murkowski by a mere 2006 votes.  Now much of the credit for that successful run has been given to the California based Tea Party Express which gifted Joe Miller with nearly $600,000 to help him run negative campaign ads attacking Murkowski.

Now we learn that since Murkowski has decided to stage a write-in campaign to get her old job back that the Tea Party Express has decided to keep throwing money at our Alaska state elections in the hopes of ensuring a victory for THEIR chosen candidate.

The tea party group helping to upset the status quo in several races this election year is coming back to Alaska to fulfill a vow to do whatever it takes to beat U.S. Sen. Lisa Murkowski.

The Tea Party Express painted Alaska's senior senator as a liberal and Republican in name only, and it vowed to work twice as hard to defeat her if she mounted a write-in campaign, which she is doing.

(By the way the Tea Party Express is also responsible for financing the campaigns of national embarrassments to the Republican party Christine O'Donnell and Sharron Angle.)

Yep the Teabaggers have managed to buy their candidates victory in state, after state, after state.  And so far they have been successful in doing so up here in Alaska as well.  And in return their candidate has almost completely ignored the citizens of Alaska and focused his attention on sending a message, via Fox News (And filmed exclusively in Palin's home studio in Wasilla), that he represents the ideals of the Tea Party Express FAR more than the ideals of the hard working people of our great state.

And now Joe Miller is driving this point home by proving to the whole world that he is, now and forever, Sarah Palin's butt boy and tagging along with her to San Diego to address the Combat Veterans for Congress. (Gee I wonder how many Alaskans will be attending THAT gathering?)

(Does that banner say that Joe Miller is ALREADY the Senator from Alaska?  Arrogant son-of-a-bitch!)

Clearly the ONLY thing Alaskan about Joe Miller and his carpet/tea bagging campaign is that it happens to be taking place right here in our great state.  Essentially this exact campaign could be held in Delaware, or Nevada, or Florida, or Kentucky, and do you know what?  It is.

Look I am not exactly a fan of Lisa Murkowski either, the money for HER campaign is literally dripping with oil from the big energy companies.  And voting for her at this point is essentially a vote for Miller.

The only hope Alaska has to elect somebody who really understands what we stand for, what we need from our Federal government, and what we want them to keep their hands off of, is Scott McAdams. And if you want to make sure that Alaska is represented by a Senator who represents Alaska, and NOT California or the interests of big oil, then please take a moment to donate.  Every little bit helps.

Because, let's face it, if Miller wins than this really WILL be Sarah Palin's Alaska!

Update: I am sorry I forgot to mention that there is ONE group in Alaska who are big fans of Joe Miller, and that is the rapidly growing number of Militia members.

"It's safe to say that Joe Miller is a friend of patriots," Norm Olson, commander of the Alaska Citizens Militia, told Salon. "His beliefs and platform favor Second Amendment rights as well as the power of nullification when the federal government intrudes into the private lives of Alaskans."

Olson, who lives on the Kenai Peninsula, claims that his group has several hundred members and supporters, adding, "what fuels the militia is fear." The militia's ideology is outlined in a list of 17 "acts of war." The list includes "firearms restrictions or other disarmament," "mandatory medical anything," "federal patrols," "taking control of children under duress or threat," "federalization of law enforcement," and "surrender powers to a corporation or foreign government."

This comes from the Alaska Citizens Militia handbook:

What protection do the citizens of Alaska have as long as such immunities provide this possibility? What force exists to prevent the state or federal government from denying the citizens of their rights under the Constitution? In simple terms, "What force exists to prevent a state or federally orchestrated massacre like the one in Waco from occurring in Alaska?"

Can it be contested that the organized militia at all levels belongs to the government? It should be clear by now that ALL militia agencies established either by the federal government or the state constitute the ORGANIZED militia because they are organized by and for the established government. Since this is true, there exists no standing force able to keep the state's forces at bay should they desire to move against the citizens. Do we believe those patriot citizen soldiers at Lexington and Concord were part of the organized government at that time? Of course not! It was clear to the early patriots that the militia was independent of the organized government and made up of people who stood ready to repel a tyrannical government from denying their liberty under natural law and reflected later in the Constitution. It is equally clear to the members of the Alaska Citizens Militia today. Furthermore, the founders of our government believed that power should remain in the hands of the people to stop the usurpation of power by government. For this expressed reason they believed in the militia system where all citizens should keep and bear arms.

So there you have it.  Joe Miller is almost solely financed by out of state money and supported by the group who threatens to take up arms against the Federal government if they dare to move against a person who breaks the law in Alaska.

THAT is who is running to represent Alaska in the Senate.  Now do you get it?
