Heated exchanges and a flood of suggestions for the Confederate renaming commission

How about we rename them after our contemporary heroes--Camp Kaepernick or Post Pelosi. There are several military installations in the NYC area. We could honor a number of Kardashians there. Instead of Camp Hunter-Liggett in California, we could call it Camp Hunter-Biden. Wait! Wait! How about we follow the lead of the NFL and seek out corporate sponsors. Camp Citibank would be a good start. At least it would save DoD dollars for beans, bullets and bombs as opposed to new signage and letterhead. Let the corporations pay for it.

Rename Fort Benning, home of the Infantry Center and School, Fort Fonda. After all, all of us Vietnam vets need to "get over it." This is exactly the point that those favoring this lunacy is, of course. I understand their perspective but there is much in our National past that is regrettable. We need to shift our focus on today and beyond. This is not just about installations but about ships, boats, etc, all the way down to street names. This is one expensive, divisive and distracting initiative that needs to be squashed by someone with enough authority and common sense to redirect these would-be millions of dollars in expenditures into areas of much greater need such as beans, bullets and bombs. We have some real enemies out there. Do you think the Chinese, Russians, Iranians, etc., are wasting resources on projects like this. It's a fool's errand.
