The group is among the many opponents in Washington state and California lining up against the plan.

Some of America's enemies are already here.

What surprises me is that any whales survived WW2, when the pinging was really in vogue.

[FlingWingFlyer]

Sacrifice America’s security for a couple of fish that really couldn’t give a **** whether the Navy is out there or not.

"They say that they're not affecting the salmon, but how would one know?" Freedlund asked. "They can't possibly know the effects."

Lady, they know a helluva lot more about it than you do.

Lord, forgive them. For they know not how ignorant they sound...

[JimSEA]

Military out of America (even though you are GLBT friendly).

LOL!!! I like the way you put that! ;o)

Whales are pests. Like pigeons or rats.

The I84 symbol is placed over the Columbia River instead of where it belongs. I hope the “journalist” has a nice drive along I84.

So, when the Navy becomes a queer majority, will the libs still protest?

"The Navy is single-minded. … The whales are very much a secondary concern to them."

As if the Navy shouldn't be concerned with the security of this country but worry about a couple of frickin' Killer Whales.

I’d rather Rufflels and Granny end up in tuna cans than risk degrading the ability of our US Navy to defend our nation. Those enviro nuts should be ignored.

"They say that they're not affecting the salmon, but how would one know?" Freedlund asked. "They can't possibly know the effects."

but she does know... feh

[fieldmarshaldj]

Should be of interest to the “whale wars” folks.

I think we should sacrifice Washington State - we would be much safer without the horrible people who inhabit that anti-American sh!thole. Boeing is moving out, Starbucks and Microsoft’s days are over anyway, no great loss.

Let British Columbia annex Western Washington. East of the Cascades, Washington is mostly composed of good people -- ones we want on our side.

My favorite bumper sticker:

SAVE THE GAY WHALES FOR JESUS.

[headstamp 2]

“My favorite bumper sticker:

A favorite from the late 70’s to early 80’s:

NUKE THE WHALES

(A play on NO NUKES and “Save the Whales” bumper stickers that were so common in those days)
