[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If someone proposed naming the site after Michelle Obama, people on this board would be slobbering all over themselves.

I didn't much care for Reagan, but this is a gracious thing to do and not unprecedented.  After all, there's the Lady Bird Johnson Grove and the Jacqueline Kennedy Garden.[/quote]

STOP MAKING SENSE!!!!!!!  [/quote]

PP isn't making sense, so he/she doesn't need to stop anything.  Neither the Jackie Kennedy Garden (at the White House) nor the Lady Bird Johnson Grove of those names were objected to by the occupants of the areas surrounding.  But if you think out-of-state Congresspeople should have the right to go into a community and rename a park anything they want, well, I hope they do it in your community too.  Republicans are all for local control, until they find something they want to control.[/quote]

The land in question is federally-owned.  That's Congress' jurisdiction.  [/quote]

I look forward to your support for renaming Fort Bragg, Fort AP Hill, Camp Beauregard and all the other army bases named for traitors to the US, regardless of what the local population thinks. [/quote]

We've already had street, park, school, and bridge name changes.[/quote]
