"Why not take it up the Mississippi River and park it somewhere in Iowa?"

I like that suggestion. I don't know the draft of a battleship, and getting it up river to Davenport (an easily accessible Iowa location) might be a problem. I remember when the Mo ran aground in Chespeake Bay some years ago. Maybe a dry dock could be towed up stream with less draft.

As a former Iowan, I dislike the idea of the Iowa being anywhere near the leftist dung punching three dollar bills of the San Francisco area. And it should never become a "museum for gays etc". Perhaps before being delivered to Davenport, Iowa, it should be taken to sea, then the 16 inch guns used to rid this country of some of the leftist evil that permeates SF and environs.

*sigh* San Franpsycho. Right next to Bizerkly. I'm thinking it's the water supply.

I agree 100 percent.

I just wonder how they think this helps their cause.

First order of business will be painting it as a big rainbow and removing any of those warmongering weapon "thingys".

I agree. The Oklahoma deserved a better fate than a scrapper's yard. Too bad they didn't leave her at Pearl Harbor with the Arizona and the Utah.

"I believe in live and let live. Most gay people keep to themselves, just like most straight people do. I wish the activists would get the f--- out of my face."

Why do you want to call queers "Gay" ?

Gay means happy. Queers claim they have no choice in the matter, they were born queer.

Now if queers claim it isn't their fault, doesn't it sound like they are really unhappy?

IF "queer" means odd, wouldn't you think they are more odd than happy?

I would think that someone that insists on going the wrong way on the "off ramp" would be better classified as odd.

Unless these unhappy people wish to be called "Odds", we should just call them queers. ( That way it doesn't reflect badly one the other odd people in the world).

Just my opinion.

anywhere but San Fransicko!

The fruitcakes and politicians diss the military every chance they get in that city. Iran deserves it more than SF.
