Since there is no active, ongoing political campaign, I can think of no reason to deny Palin the opportunity to speak on a military installation. If it is a regulation in North Carolina, it would also be a regulation at Wainwright and Richardson in Alaska.

They allow obviously radical Muslims to rant and rave (and murder) but they're afraid of a conservative woman.

Welcome to the Obama Administration's “brave new world”!

I’m pretty sure the issue is not political from the installation’s point of view - it’s an issue of commercial solicitation, in that she’s there to make money. There are rules regarding access to a military installation for commercial purposes that have to be complied with. And it’s been long enough since I’ve had to do a legal review on such a request that I haven’t the foggiest what the standards are anymore.
