... The
pride with which Gleason asserts his part in getting two AFRTS
stations closed only underscores the assertion sometime back that the
only thing we've ever heard him renounce is his citizenship.


The driving force in closing AFRTS Ramey and AFRTS Buchanan was the
PRBA
which objected, on legal grounds, to those stations covering way too
much
of the civilian population when an LPFM would suffice. Considering
that,
at the time, the environmental damage and health risk the Navy was
putting the Municipality of Vieques through at the time, the PRBA was
rather adamant about this invasion of Puerto Rican airwaves by the US
military.





Once again, you demonstrate my point for me.

If the point is to show how many ugly things the US has done abroad, then
that's right.


That's pretty offensive Eduardo. Why don't you just head back to South
America. We don't need your kind in the USA.


What is offensive about saying what most well travelled and educated people
know... that the US is quickly losing its edge and competitiveness and
influence. Would you rather bury your head in the sand?

What the US needs to learn is that in this time of competition for
resources, most of the world hates US. Our interventionist policies, going
back to the Monroe Doctrine, have made the US widely hated. A change in
attitude is long called for.
