Update: Alaska Has Glaciers of Cash:
Earlier today, the Rude Pundit wrote about the enormous piles of your money that Alaska Senator Ted Stevens, a man who would eat a beluga whale with bald eagle bone utensils, greedily hordes like a crazed mongrel over a tossed out bucket of KFC, and how such pigging out at the trough of public money is affecting paying for the Katrina clean-up and rebuilding.

Well, it seems that the enormous price of oil has left Alaska flush with cash, so much revenue that there's expected to be battles between the governor and legislature on how to spend it.

And if you believe that Ted Stevens'll take this opportunity to suggest giving back some of the federal budget and appropriations pork he's gotten for Alaska, the Rude Pundit has a couple of bridges he'd like to sell you.
