If anyone has a list of the base closings - please post!!

[LynneSin]

I'd like to see if there is any trending with this report - like blue regions or republicans who disobey Bush.

Plus I'm curious to see if anything in my area is hit

this means something bad. but what? first of all, one town alone will lose 400 million a year, that will hurt, and rummy wants to close 150 bases.

[Oreo]

8. The total net/gain

According to the totals,

18,223 Civilians will lose their jobns
10,782 Military personnel will probably be permanently based in _insert country here___


They're pulling 14,000 military personnel from Korea and Germany

11. Can wait to see the freepers' reactions to this news.

Should be some good laughs on how try to "spin" this one.

Will report later of my findings...don't want anyone else having to take an unnecessary shower!

[Jara sang]

13. Hampton Roads got some serious gains

You can thank John Warner, Virginia's military whore on the Hill for that. They are shutting down Fort Monroe, probably turn that into a National Historic Site.

14. Some of these bases are on very expensive pieces of property -

Someone's going to get very rich off of these deals. Hell, who cares about the rest of the U.S. These are self-serving crooks, no more, no less.

[Guckert]

18. Bring on the Oil refineries!!!! what a great thing for America. DUH

:sarcasm:

[Redstone]

15. The punishment of Connecticut continues...

First the helicopters, now the sub base. They probably won't be happy until Siskorsky and Hamilton-Standard and Praatt & Whitney go completely out of business.

16. After the vilification of Clinton will the right be just a PISSED?? or

will they claim that base closures are great because they can now build oil refineries on the land in the middle of your community..DUH :puke:

[mopaul]

19. trimming up years of waste by the previous administration

you know, the military hating previous administration?

[jmm]

17. My head hurts trying to understand how

Clinton supposedly gutted the military yet it's ok for Bush to close all these based after pissing off most of the world.

[tx_dem41]

22. If you look at the list, you will realize that the majority of these ...

...closures are not "bases".
