I am a conservative. I believe in the sovereignty and security of this one nation, under God. I believe in the sanctity of life and that life begins at conception. I believe in marriage between one man and one woman. I believe that all children in our school systems should be educated in English and taught the civic duties and responsibilities of citizenship and patriotism. I believe that we have the responsibility and obligation to control our borders and determine who is allowed to live and work in our country. I believe in private property rights and that the death tax should be killed. I believe government economic policies should reward those who build business or save and invest their money. I believe in the right to bear arms and the right of self defense. I believe in rugged individualism and that no one owes me anything just because I live and breathe. I believe we should all practice charity in some form or fashion, especially to those who are suffering and least fortunate. But charity must be voluntary and spring from a spirit of altruism and love for your neighbor. I believe that imposed systems of wealth redistribution destroy families, produce a culture of dependence and hurt everyone. Finally, I believe there is room to acknowledge the role of our Creator in public life as stated in the Declaration of Independence and the United States Constitution. ---Bill Russell in his own words .

A popular bumper sticker while he was governor of Mississippi.
He was a disaster! I see nothing has changed.
So small minded. The USS Garbage Scow Murtha, pride of the fleet.
I hope he can get this done but “they” run the Pentagon right now. It’s not the same Pentagon that we used to know and love.
From what I’ve heard and read about him, he’s an absolute cretin who loathes our military. That being the case, Obama must have figured he’d make the perfect NAVSEC.
55,930 Total Signatures so far.
Good for Russell. Most republican candidates would have just hidden under their desk as usual, not wanting to “offend” anyone. Right Sen. McCain??!!
ROFL! How appropriate.
Bill Russell ping!
No wonder the PA GOP picked someone else to run besides a stupid carpetbagger.
LOL!
Willie boy forgot his meds again today.
And, thus, the endless Democrap self-lionizing continues.
Since ALL American taxpayers paid for it, how come the Dems got to name the ship??
Thanks for posting the link, smokingfrog. I was one of the first 100 to sign. It’s good to see so many continue to sign on!
LOL!
Is there a way to find a list of all former Congressmen, from WW II on, who were Nay and/or USMC veterans, who ahve NOT had ships named for them...Let’s compare records, both military and political..
