Lemee see if I understand what your are saying... You REALLY want to work
for the military, but not in OK (where you are now), and you are willing
to destroy thousands of other lives so you can achieve your goal of moving
away from mommy and daddy.

No, I don't give a **** about working for the military and there are going
to be base closures somewhere more than likely as far as I know. I'd like
to see them closed here and you don't have a ****ing clue as to why. I hate
Oklahoma..... Actually, I'm not real high on this country right now and I'm
thinking of a way to feel a little better about it. I have every reason to
wish for Oklahoma to be the state to lose its bases over another state. So,
no, you don't understand.



You can think whatever you want about it. I asked a pretty straightforward
question. I'm looking for information that might lead me to better
understand which bases are most likely on the chopping block in competition
with Oklahoma. If I can in any way help that state to have an edge - I
think that might make me feel at home there. I sure don't feel at home here
and I don't think I ever will. It's a 'free' country right? I can move
about it as I like, right? If I think 'dirty politics' or what the ****
ever they think they are doing here are being played against me then I
should be free to campaign for another state to win a bidding to escape
realignment or closure. Possibly helping to 'save' thousands of lives for
another state might be appreciated there - wherever that might be. There is
simply no degree of reasoning with an unfortunate number of people in
Oklahoma and monumental efforts have been made.



Dirty politics hardly describes what I believe is going on here... there is
truly as near a Gestapo like activity as I would ever want to believe occurs
out in the open in the United States. I hold out hope that other states don't
operate in this manner or this country is in a disgraceful condition. I
would hope that people who have fought for this country or are facing
fighting for this country would frown upon the state of affairs here and be
willing to consider taking their business elsewhere. Maybe not, but I've
really got not much to lose in finding out.

The mirror tells me lies
Could I mistake myself for someone
Who lives behind my eyes
Will he escape my soul
Or will he live in me
Is he tryin' to get out or tryin' to enter me

Before embarking on drastic action, consider that the problem could be
as simple as your tinfoil hat being too tight.

If you think that oklahoma politics are bad, try the People's Republik
of Kalifornia! There, the likes of Barbara Boxer and Nancy Pelosi and
their cohorts hold the reins of power -- Arnold Schwartzenegger
notwithstanding.

I'm sorry I misunderstood your motivation.... Here's the door, don't let
the doorknob hit you in the ass on the way out. I hear Canada is nice,
maybe France...

Why did you snip out what I wrote ?
I DID NOT write that part above.


This is what you wrote:


Can anyone direct me to a source of information - a website perhaps -
that can educate me on the military base closure process and help me
understand what states and/or bases are most in competition with
Okalahoma? I would like to campaign for base closures in Oklahoma -
any suggestions are welcome.


And I chose to respond to this:


I would like to campaign for base closures in Oklahoma -


By adding: I think they should be closed too!

Any questions? Class dismissed!


Dismissed a tad to early, JD. The person who actually wrote what
you claim Tank Fixer wrote was:

Even though class has been dismissed, you get to sit in the
corner for another hour, with a dunce cap on your head, JD.

If you don't know how to keep your attributions and quotes on
followup posts straight, maybe you should refrain from posting on
Usenet for a while. That way, it will take longer for people to
find out that you are dumb as a rock.
