American "prosperity" is not necessarily linked to the bombing of furreners all over the world, though it certainly has looked that way during our lifetimes.<BR/><BR/>Again, my objections to the Blue Angels are strictly survival-oriented. They come so close to my fourth-floor apartment on Franklin Street, particularly on their practice days, that my windows rattle outrageously right next to where I'm working. It feels just like a matter of time before the windows break and a slice of glass comes hurtling at me.<BR/><BR/>This reminds me. It's time to ask the various Supervisors what their reaction will be to families whose relatives perish in a Blue Angel "accident." Sorry, Charlie, nothing we could do?Civic Centerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12362422142667230626noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11380345.post-57276756027935244212007-04-25T08:24:00.000-07:002007-04-25T08:24:00.000-07:00A Blue Angels performance reminds us that military...A Blue Angels performance reminds us that military might and the willingness to use it are intrinsic to American prosperity, a fact many of us don't much like.sfwilliehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16374352476617643661noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11380345.post-48678824464976786162007-04-24T08:52:00.000-07:002007-04-24T08:52:00.000-07:00Yes, this was bound to happen - think of the carna...Yes, this was bound to happen - think of the carnage if the crash were in downtown San Francisco instead of rural South Carolina. I think it's time for the Blue Angels to return to the 'nest' for good. There are so many better uses for the money spent on the Blue Angels I can't even start to list them.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11380345.post-21497888777649658422007-04-23T18:37:00.000-07:002007-04-23T18:37:00.000-07:00I'm with you on this one!
