Missouri loses 2400 jobs due to base realignments...
Governor Blunt (R-legacy) blames previous Democratic administration. Charles Jaco impolitely points out that we have Republican congressmen and senators and that Baby Blunt closed Missouri's Washington, DC lobbying office earlier this year. For shame Charles!

1. The BRACs (Base Realignment and Closure) Program is necessary
The current set up was one of cold war demographics.

Regretfully it must be done. Other cities will get those jobs, sad but true and rather necessary as I said.

Not to stick up for the 'pubs too much.

3. National Guard at Lambert Field which has been there since
1926, jobs in Overland involving army records, things like that. It's mostly in the St.Louis area.
