USS Harvey Milk would be a fitting tribute

Milk, Chavez, and Murtha - liberals have no sense of tradition, no pride in American exceptionalism, and no shame.

[dljordan]

They should put the refueling stations in the rear.

[popdonnelly]

Is this the same San Francisco who’s city council voted against a visit by an aircraft carrier? They can name a ferry boat after Harvey Milk.

[lentulusgracchus]

LOL -- what is that, "Monty Python Does Gilbert and Sullivan"?

[Dante3]

As far as I know, Milk was not a cult member, but definitely a supporter of Jones and attended a few of the People’s Temple services.

[dfwgator]

At the very least he was incredibly naive about them.

Motto of the USS Harvey Milk: “We go down but we never sink.”

or

“Don’t give up the lisp!”

[lentulusgracchus]

After his son "came out", Nevius became a vocal proponent for the homosexual agenda .....

Of course he did. Otherwise, it was his fault.

Known phenomenon, even got Dick Cheney and Barry Goldwater. PFLAG is built on it.

Up next, a new class of mighty battlecruisers: USS Sodom, USS Gomorrah, USS Babylon, USS Sybaris, USS Gay Bay, USS Provincetown.

Escorted as always by the USS Harry Reed, USS Harvey Milk, USS Sasha Cohen, USS Liberace, and the lead ship of the class, USS Rock Hudson.

Barf alert, btw -- where's our barf alert?

This story made me think of the Cheech & Chong bit about “Buggery On The High Seas”

Where are the damned North Koreans when you need them?

[lentulusgracchus]

Your tag line is sick. Love it!

More in-your-face, down your throat Politicly Correct Bull ****!

[Chgogal]

Hey, what's wrong with a ship named USS Jane Fonda or USS Jesse Jackson?

/s I'm joking dumb@$$ government jerks. Harvey Milk, Jane Fonda and Jesse Jackson are ridiculous names for NAVY ships.

I have a friend who was growing up in San Francisco at the time of Milk’s killing. She says it is really irritating to know that Milk was not the only one who died that day, yet he is the only one people remember. Also, being gay had nothing to do with it. He was a target because he was a city council member.

[Slings and Arrows]

OK, what’s the joke?

[upcountryhorseman]

A fitting tribute to what, A small minority of people
practicing abhorrent behavior?

[IMR 4350]

Unless I’m mistaken, that ship will drop it’s back door and you load it from the rear.

Sounds like Harvey Milk to me.

[Slings and Arrows]

*chuckle* Got it, thanks.
