..well, not all of it—yet. Only seven oil-rich islands and the surrounding sea-beds. As reported by LoopyLoo at My Blog:
Obama has been literally doing everything that he can to weaken this country since he took office. He has lowered our defence’s along both borders, he has spent our treasure, he has betrayed our allies and lowered our standard of living.
Now he is going even further and giving away parts of our country. And not just any part, but valuable islands that would increase our oil production if drilling were allowed on them. And to make matters even worse, the state that he is taking this land away from is Alaska.
Read the story for yourself and start spreading the news. This man has betrayed this country in so many ways. How can anyone consider re-electing him unless they want this country to cease to exist?
Report: Obama Administration Is Giving Away 7 Strategic Islands to Russia
The Obama Administration is reportedly giving away Wrangell, Bennett, Jeannette and Henrietta islands in Alaska to Russia. The federal government drew the line to put these seven Alaskan islands on the Russian side
Former senatorial candidate Joe Miller broke this story at World Net Daily:The Obama administration, despite the nation’s economic woes, effectively killed the job-producing Keystone Pipeline last month. The Arab Spring is turning the oil production of Libya and other Arab nations over to the Muslim Brotherhood. Iraq is distancing itself from the U.S. And everyone recognizes that Iran, whose crude supplies are critical to the European economy, will do anything it can to frustrate America’s strategic interests. In the face of all of this, Obama insists on cutting back U.S. oil potential with outrageous restrictions.
Part of Obama’s apparent war against U.S. energy independence includes a foreign-aid program that directly threatens my state’s sovereign territory. Obama’s State Department is giving away seven strategic, resource-laden Alaskan islands to the Russians. Yes, to the Putin regime in the Kremlin. Read the rest at: Gateway Pundit!
It’s probably just a matter of time until Obama decides to rid himself of another thorn in his side and gives Texas back to the Mexicans.

‘Dream’ Act
A member of one of the constituencies that Barack Obama so assiduously courts had his version of the American dream go awry the other day when his plot to bomb the U.S. Capitol was foiled by the F.B.I.
The 29-year old Moroccan man accused of trying to blow up the U.S. Capitol told acquaintances that America’s war on terrorism actually was a war on Muslims and they needed to be ready for battle.
…El Khalifi…expressed interest in killing at least 30 people.
…He came to the U.S. when he was 16 years old and overstayed his visitor visa, which expired in 1999, making him in the country illegally, according to court documents. (Terror suspect accused of planning to detonate explosives arrested near Capitol in FBI sting)
El Kalifi should have conferred with Obama’s illegal immigrant advocate before he strapped on that suicide vest. Maybe he could have gotten some pointers.
Be Sure You’re Right, Then Go Ahead 
Here’s a comment I got when I posted this. Mine was also a reblog.

…a comment from a resident, left-wing Alaskan. You can always tell them by their compulsive name-calling. I just dump comments like that in the trash where they belong.
I leave them. He wants his free speech but wants me to shut up, LOL, won’t happen.
Bob A.
Good idea to leave ’em. It lets others see their immaturity. On an old blog I had I would delete the comments and replace it with, “I’m an idiot.” That was after leaving previous dumb comments of theirs up. Ya know, I never did have a problem with trolls back then…lol!
True enough, SHERRY…but I started this blog essentially to help combat the pernicious Left & as a vehicle for my own opinions. I don’t see any point to debating with numbnut leftists—I’m already angry enough. Still, I’ll post an opposing point of view if it happens to be well-thought out, at least semi-literate, or witty (don’t usually see a great deal of wit coming from the port-siders, however–their idea of humor is usually a smug monologue by Bill Maher or a virtually incoherent rant by the irascible Sgt. Schultz).
Yeah, I don’t mind opposing viewpoints but its that namecalling that gets me.
So what if Øbama gives away Alaska? We’ll still have 56 states left.
p.s. My husband always says we could solve a lot of our problems if we gave California back to Mexico and Manhattan back to the Indians. I have to admit he has a point.
Your husband is a wise man, BOB.
Shhhh…. don’t let him hear you say that….
Really- Obama is “giving away” these Islands?
Actually- the Alaska Supreme Court, in 1994 under Republican governor Wally Hickel, in the case: D. Denardo v. State of Alaska that these islands were NOT part of alaska.
Despite your assertions otherwise- the combined size of the five islands are 228 square kilometers., with more then a 1/3 buried under ice caps and glaciers.
And despite a nay man “claiming” these islands for the US in the late 1800’s, the request appears to have never been processed, nor has the US ever had any structures or citizens there. Unlike both the Russians, and the British. And looking at a map will show you these islands are just off of siberia- clearly much, much closer to Russia then anything that could be claimed as american territory.
Another non-issue, wrapped in half-truths and outright lies.
According to the Alaska AG and legislature, a giveaway is exactly what it is, whether you like it or not:

And still- what does this have to do with Obama? this occurred in the late 90’s.
And in case you, as some in the Alaska legislature (but not their Supreme Court) seem to have forgotten- the power over defining states boundaries, as well as negotiations with foreign soveriegn powers over such, rests squarely with the federal government.
No where in history where these islands ever legally a part of Alaska, nor the US. Nor was the “claim” to them being US territory, made by a single sailor, ever approved or adopted by the US state Department (and these claims were laid in the 1890’s).
I don’t intend to argue ownership of the islands—the Alaskan legislature considers them part of Alaska, as did the federal government at one time (otherwise why have to cede ownership in the first place?). Be that as it may, the feds have no more right to cede Alaskan territory without proper treaty ratification than they do to cede New Jersey. It doesn’t matter who first initiated the Maritime Agreement (never signed by Russia, therefore never in effect), Obama is the president now (at least for another 10 months). For whom are you advocating, the Russians, Obama, or both?

I¡ll go along with this deal as long as comrade Obama and all of his czars go with the islands.
Ah, a few islands would be a small price to pay for that.
I no longer believe that Obama doesn’t know that he’s systematically destroying America.
Of course he knows what he’s doing … it’s the people who still support him who don’t know what they’re doing.
Kinda reminds me of Jesus, “Forgive them Father, they know not what they do.”
But I am not perfect like Jesus and I am finding it harder and harder to forgive those that vote for the destruction of our country.

What’s next? Attu and Kiska? Americans fought the Japanese invaders to defend all U.S. territory from foreign invasion during WW2!!! Were their sacrifices all in vain?

One thing I learned during my time in the military was that our own politicians will stab us in the back faster than any of our enemies. Thanks for your service, ROBERT, and thanks for commenting.
Instead of complainging, I would like to hear your solutions to some of the problems. We have one of the best presidents in the history of American in office right now, otherwise, where would be? Why don’t you ask Bush an nice GOP cronie? Where would he like us to be? Third World?
“…one of the best presidents in the history of America?”
Mae, respectfully, what have you been smoking, ’cause, I’d like to get my hands on some. You want to hear some solutions? Here’s a few:
1. Govern according to law, which in our case is the U.S. Constitution.
2. Strip unaccountable federal agencies like the EPA of all undelegated powers that rightfully belongs to the People (via their duly elected representatives).
3. Institute term limits for Congress & force them to live under the same laws as the rest of us.
4. Reform the tax code so that the 49% of Americans who currently do not pay taxes assume their “fair share”.
5. Stop spending money that we don’t have.
I could think of others, but those’ll do for a start. Oh, & by the way, criticizing the unconstitutional actions of a lawless regime hardly qualifies as “complaining”. You could look it up.
Last February my comment was based upon my opinion of Obama as being totally incompetent and the worst president we’ve ever had. Now that his gang has manipulated the 2012 election, I believe him to be the worst threat this country has ever faced!
All the chickens have voted for Colonel Sanders; God help us!!!
I agree. I’ve said it before — 40 years ago, Obama would’ve been on an FBI watch list, not sleeping in the White House.
