I hope Murkowski continues to keep the upper hand in this relationship.

And I think she deserves more than one beer…

After the cameraman left, she should have broken the beer bottle in his face.

All of us would never ever have a brewski with anything but our best buds, right?

Course once the cameras were off, he turned to Senator Thanks Dad and said “Now get out of my office, bitch.”

Oh, he´s sucking up big time since the realization that she chairs the committee with oversight of the Interior Department.

Although a Zinke spokesman later confirmed the Secretary required 77 stitches, the Anchorage DA’s office declined to press charges against Senator Murkowski.

Go out and get a six pack of the Alaskan Amber and have one for me.

In the end, these people are all part of the same cushy, elite club and will, above all, protect their own. LM might talk a good game, but she has far more potent remedies at her disposal if she chooses to do the right thing. She did the right thing on the health care vote but I’m not sure she really did it for the right reasons.

He was allegedly threatening NOT to lease more of the Alaska Wildlife Refuge. So he was threatening to protect the environment (thank you Gail Collins for pointing that out). Is he now not threatening to protect the environment? Bummer.

She did it because she wants to get re-elected. If healthcare in Alaska collapses, she’s toast.

Now she and Zinke can proceed with the Republican plan to turn Alaska’s natural resources into money, which is their common interest. Thus the beer. Friends again.

Well, what do you know. Republicans and Republicans pretending to get along. Not exactly the WWI Christmas truce, is it?

I’ll bet that Senator Murkowski is a frontstabber and not a backstabber.

This must have been taken after he sucked her dick.

To get the taste out of his mouth.

Damn. They could’ve had an Amber Ale.

Zinke’s war on petroglyphs in Nevada is bizarre.

A scuffle like that would seem pretty mild after the years of sending the riot squad to the governor’s backyard BBQs.
