The culture can better be described as corrupt.
Most of those young guys pretending to be fishermen on Vieques, that are hostile to tourists, are drug smugglers.
Tourists and Naval personnel are potential witnesses to the crimes they're committing.
That's the dirty little secret that the media and our government is allowing to leak out through the press, now that our Navy has been forced to leave.
History will record that the mightiest Navy the world has ever known was handed its greatest defeat at the hands of a few drug smugglers and terrorists, without ever firing a single shot in anger in return.
This giant give-a-way of 36,000 more U.S. Taxpayer owned acres and billions of dollars worth of infrastructure, on two Naval bases in Puerto Rico, will justify efforts to mark Bush down as one of this country's greatest failures as President.
Bush jr.'s name will be right there alongside his father's and Jimmy Carter's.
And, to paraphrase John Paul Jones, Bush "has only just begun to give the American Taxpayer's stuff away!"
