As if Pennsylvania hasn't been punished enough for all of the dead people in Philadelphia who voted for Fat Eddie the Teamster Thug???
Just fine, punish people who had nothing to do with what that senile bitch said, and probably didn't vote for her and Fat Eddie to begin with.< /sarcasm>
Are you aware of how many soldiers have from Western Pennsylvania have served, and continue to serve? Wanna punish them too?
Are you still active? If so, maybe some guys from the 28th Infantry Division (Pennsylvania National Guard) just might want to have a little "talk" with you MISTER Jackson, and perhaps adjust your attitude, in light of the fact that you want to take away their jobs so that they can't feed their families when the get back from their deployments in Bosnia and Iraq.
Sure you don't want to think about that some more?
Give me a break...I'm shaking in my boots. If you back off the hysteria for a second and think about it you would realize that if the DoD were to do something like that, which you should realise would be impossible, the hue and cry for the Lt Governors head would be overwhelming. When business feels threatened they get action.
As for the National Guardsman, I'd love to have a drink with them. They would probably understand the comment for what it was and not go off the deep end.
