But while San Francisco officials don't want the battleship, officials
in
Stockton would welcome the Iowa.

The San Joaquin County city supports a bill that would authorize
transferring the Iowa from the Navy to the Port of Stockton.

I say horse****! The USS Pampanito, a submarine, is there, and also now
I believe that the Jeremiah O'Brian is there, too.

If gays and lesbians are such proponents of the peace movement, why do
they
persist in their demands for access to the military? Maybe some
knowledgeable
liberal could answer that for me.

poor kevin.......still with a death grip on the title of "King of the NG
idiots"

It is pretty hard to interpret this in any other way.
