Pinky has some personal insight into goings-on at the Portsmouth Naval Shipyard in preparation for the BRAC visit. Let's all wish Pinky our best. I'm not in favor of keeping bases or other government facilities open just to keep jobs, but it sounds like the BRAC has some questionable motives here. I have to wonder if the goal here is really to get congress to vote down the whole list, and Rummy and Bush can say, "Hey, we tried to cut spending..."
Peace,
