Didn’t Bill Clinton get one of his cash patrons buried there even though the guy wasn’t a veteran?
Raze the EPS, DOJ, FBI and CIA buildings, landscape.
Problem solved.
say no to McCain!!! let him get cremated and Cindy can keep him in a coffee can.
We can exhume Ted Kennedy... this will give us room for one more.
I love the irony of the Union’s malice towards Robert E. Lee by turning his front yard into a cemetery which later becomes the most hallowed ground on US soil.
I see a cross on every headstone and wonder how long it will take before the Godless America hating Left demands they all be removed.
Old English churches reuse existing plots after a few hundred years. Perhaps Arlington could do that, or bury in the spaces between the oldest plots
I am of the opinion that the Civil War veterans could be exhumed, cremated and placed in a mausoleum built on the grounds.
Fill it up now.
There won’t be a United States of America in 2060.
I say we dig up Teddy Kennedy and bury him in the nearest landfill. That would free up one space.
Buy adjoining land to expand.
A few years ago they were stacking our boys like cordwood in Arlington. Not sure if that place is finally organized.
They have been talking about this for decades. I cannot believe that they are still burying seven thousand a year at Arlington. It only became the singular super famous cemetery after the JFK burial in 1963.
Don’t tell the ‘tards that is was once Robert E. Lee’s farm. They’ll want to till it all up.
With federal money and using eminent domain where necessary, it should be expanded west & north to Arlington Blvd, and to the south into a small section bordering Columbia Pike. With changes to acceptance of new graves, that should give Arlington National more future growth.
Someday, in the future, there may be calls for an “extension” of Arlington National to be created somewhere. Right now eminent domain alone can expand it a bit.
If McCain is buried there, I predict a lot of the vets already buried there will pack up an leave.
Bury them as they come. When it’s full, it’s full. No more elitists unless they go thru the line like anyone else.
