Navy to San Francisco: See ya, haters!
This should come as no surprise to most.
Via Michelle:”Finally, the military writes off the anti-JROTC, Molotov cocktail-throwing, pro-fragging, anti-battleship zealots in San Francisco”
Navy scuttles plan to commission warship here, citing local politics
Secretary of the Navy Donald C. Winter vetoed plans to commission the Makin Island, the Navy’s newest and most powerful warship, in San Francisco in 2008 because of a perception that the city is anti-military.
Retired Marine Corps Maj. Gen. J. Michael Myatt, chairman of a high-powered committee that was to support a commissioning ceremony for the Makin Island, said he has been informed that the ship would not be commissioned in San Francisco, as scheduled, but in San Diego.
Myatt said he had been told that the Navy was concerned about San Francisco’s refusal to provide a homeport for the retired battleship Iowa, which would be turned into a museum, and for the city school board’s decision to abolish junior ROTC training in San Francisco high schools.
One of the factors that turned the Pentagon against San Francisco, he said, was widely quoted anti-military remarks made by various city politicians. Some of the remarks got considerable attention, especially ones made by Gerardo Sandoval, a member of the Board of Supervisors, who was quoted on national television as saying national defense should be left to “the cops and the Coast Guard.”
Perhaps next to leave San Francisco: Fleet Week? It would serve the troop-bashing city right.

San Francisco is Nazi Germany. They hate Americans, Jews, capitalism, American soldiers, Christianity, heterosexuality, and American patriotism. San Francisco is heterophobic, Communist, pro-Hezbollah, full of environazis and feminazis, and pro-PETA. They’re represented by a pro-abortionist sleazebag! Pretty ironic for a city named after a Catholic Saint!

San Francisco has been turned from a once-great city into a national disgrace. I applaud the Navy’s decision and urge it to remove fleet week, and all other forms of support and interaction from Sanny Franny.

In the 1860’s the south attempted to secede from the union, this was met with the civil war. Does anyone think there would be resistance if Frisco seceded from the union?

Shitto, what happened? A goat kicked you where it hurts the most?
SF should also be stripped of all Federal funding as the law allows and demands when it citizens bar recruiters ans such.

shitto,
Is this who you are seeing for your mental problems?
Linda Pritzker: a billionaire Montana- based psychotherapist and Buddhist who is an heiress to the Hyatt Hotel fortune. Now 52, Pritzker is notoriously reclusive, but has emerged in recent years as a major donor to anti- conservative and anti- Bush causes. No known previous Air America Radio ties. Recently, the Pritzkers have made news over their longstanding family row.

shitto, as usual, the truth hurts you mightily. So do you really think going to a whacko shrink is going to cure all your mental illnesses?
Just get there red faced and be an ass at work. You entertain your co-workers immensely.
