There is npo free speech on Free Republic, only the speech that Jim and the Mods feel like accepting. I would suggest you move along, the Mods don't put up with disruptors on this thread

I don't like it a bit. I have been to both Hospitals hundreds of times, and both are packed to the gills all the time. Neither place has enough land to expand enough to absorb the other.

Plus Walter Reed has several Hospitality houses on the property that is probably the best accommodations for family members of wounded Soldiers in the entire nation. Bethesda Naval Hospital is on RT 355 (Wisconsin Ave) and the traffic is murder around that Hospital. NIH is directly across the street from Bethesda NH and NIH employs thousands of people and that area is always jammed up with traffic.

I pay 29.99 a month for my cable connection and as you can see I'm getting over 4.0MB of download speed, that around 100 times faster than Dial up.

A dial up account goes for 19.99 a month

Some cable connections are for downloading only and you upload with a analog modem

That's what they have suggested. They want to close Walter Reed and move them over to Betesda Naval Hopsital, about 5 miles away (as the crow flies)

We'll keep the lights on for you, Peach, and Theresawithanh will color little flames and paste them on the lamps to make sure they stay lit. She's good at that you know.

I didn't think it sounded like a well thought out plan.
In the end, they will probably spend more money to fix
what they mess up.

I am around 8 blocks up the street from the large Naval
Medical Center, San Diego

IT'S ALL BUSH'S FAULT
. . . What's going RIGHT for the Bush Administration, Republicans, and America!


FREEDOM AND DEMOCRACY:

[This is the absolute must read article of the evening!]
BEYOND WAR AND REMEMBRANCE . . .
BUSH HAS LEARNED FROM YALTA. HAS THE REST OF THE WORLD?
by Daniel Henninger
Friday, May 13, 2005 12:01 a.m. EDT

"If you were a watcher of TV news through the middle of this week, you saw quite a lot about two young girls who had been murdered in Zion, Ill., but got only a glimpse of a major policy speech by George Bush on how to prevent the violent death of tens of millions of people. Times change. Or do they?"

BUSH FINDS BELIEVER IN GEORGIAN LEADER
by Joseph Curl

TBILISI, Georgia — President Bush's vision of spreading freedom and democracy throughout the world has found a home in the heart of Georgian President Mikhail Saakashvili.

The 37-year-old, U.S.-educated freedom fighter who led a popular uprising in 2003 dubbed the "Rose Revolution," which ousted a former top Soviet official from power told The Washington Times yesterday that the U.S. president is on the right side of history.

"It's a new kind of ideology that we have from this president that's kind of crystallized now. It is idealistic. It's a much more moral position. It's also a very winning positive position," Mr. Saakashvili said.

WAR ON TERROR:

MAKING PROGRESS IN IRAQ
by Oliver North (archive)
May 13, 2005

WESTERN IRAQ -- "These Marines are great. America ought to be very proud of its Marines, soldiers, sailors and airmen; they're doing great work out here." So Marine Col. Stephen Davis, the commander of Regimental Combat Team 2 (RCT-2), told me once we had a chance to talk near al Qaim, Iraq.

Davis is in charge of Operation Matador, an effort to bring law and order to the bulk of Iraq's vast, western al Anbar province, which makes up one-third of the country. What these Marines are doing now near the Syrian border is what they did months ago in Fallujah, and the progress is evident.

PUNISHING IRAQIS
by Ralph Peters

May 13, 2005 -- IT'S been an ugly week in Iraq. On Wednesday alone, nearly 80 Iraqi civilians were killed by suicide bombers. Their crimes? The desire for peace and freedom. Or simply looking for work.

Terrorism revealed its soul: merciless, vindictive and in love with death itself. There's no strategic plan behind the slaughter of Iraqi workers in a marketplace in Tikrit or the butchering of other Sunni Arabs in Hawija. Suicide bombings in a Baghdad bazaar don't have cunning goals.

The terror attacks are no longer about changing Iraq. They're about punishment.

LEGISLATION

While the media and other leftist organizations have been twisting in the wind, over the UN(ron) Ambassador, and their filibusters, the GOP has been doing things such as, well, you know, passing budgets which slash or completely freeze the growth rates of Medi-caid and other spending programs, opening up ANWR to oil exploration, passing brass-knuckled illegal immigration reforms, such as the Real ID Act, passing tort reform measures, and bankruptcy reform measures, and starting the process of overhauling the country’s energy policies too.

http://www.polipundit.com/
[We should 'save' the above list of legislative successes so that we can 'share' the list with the perpetually perturbed FR posters (e.g., California Patriot) who don't believe this administration has accomplished anything during the last four months!]
