Off Base

Al Diamon gives 9 reasons why the reccomended BRAC closings in Maine could be a good thing. My favorite:

9. The announcement that the state had been body-slammed by the Department of Defense finally accomplished something the war in Iraq, the privatization of Social Security, the Florida right-to-die debacle, and the federal deficit couldn’t manage. For one night, the Bush apologists in my local bar shut up.

That’s got to be worth something.
