That money goes into the states treasury. It's up to Rendell what it's used for. Maybe if Palin doesn't make it to Washington we can convince her to run for gov here.


 i'm in for that. nothing like a fellow fishing and hunting person in a gov. position!!

Not entirely true. Alaska, on top of the ROYALTIES you mentioned, has also imposed ( with Palin's support ) a windfall profiit tax.

As you can see by this article the $1,200 windfall profit tax is on top of the approximately $2,000 royalties money the people of Alaska will receive this year.

So then imposing a higher tax on the profits of one specific industry  (this is not across the board but only on the oil companies) is not a windfall tax? Please explain!
Spin away but its still a pig is still a pig and he is still changing his positions faster and more often than a snagger setting his hook!
How did that stance on not catering to the religous right work out for him. Thank you Mr Fallwell for letting me speak at your school.
