Following
is a categorized Master List of Governor Palin's accomplishments for
2009 with links to each accomplishment item and selected photos. This
is a lengthy list, yet as of this writing only covers less than seven
months. The Master List will be updated as accomplishment items are
added, permanently linked in the Reference Blogs box (on Google Blog),
and occasionally time/date stamp re-posted (perhaps quarterly).
Blogs
are ephemeral in that entries are buried as more are added. Sure,
readers can search by key words, but that is no substitute for a
categorized index. Through this Master List, readers can see precisely
what Governor Palin has achieved in just these nine months alone. If
this list were to be printed, it would be over 30 pages.
Note: items also reflect how this blog has matured over time.
Alaska Gasline Inducement Act (AGIA)
AGIA
will result in a 1,715-mile natural gas pipeline to run from Alaska's
North Slope to a connecting point in Alberta, Canada and end 30 years
of pipe dreaming about same. The pipeline will bring Alaskan natural
gas to the Lower 48 states. The pipeline is expected to be complete in
2019. It will be North America's largest infrastructure project. This
achievement alone is more than most of us do in an entire lifetime.
