Base Closure Blues

Mrs. CaliBlogger and myself are taking a break from the big city this weekend. We're visting my folks in Palm Springs. And although I don't have much time, what with our active social schedule of hanging out at the pool drinking margaritas, I can't help but making a brief comment on yesterday's base closure announcements.

By and large California fared much better than many feared, anticipating a bit of retribution for our staunch blueness, as well as our production of two of BushCorp's most outspoken critics, House Minority Leader Pelosi and Senator Boxer.

In fact Connecticut, home to notorious collaborator Lieberman was among the hardest hit. It just goes to show what playing ball with the Bushies gets you.

Nothing.
