NAME THAT BUILDING 18 -- contest
according to the DOD press conference transcript Building 18 needs a name

http://www.defenselink.mil/Transcripts/Transcript.aspx?TranscriptID=3892


General Richard A. Cody: I will personally oversee the plan to upgrade Building 18, and we'll soon change the name of it. Referring to a place where our soldiers stay as "Building 18" is not appropriate. We own that building, and we're going to take charge of it and other facilities. I will oversee and ensure that our soldiers and their families, who have sacrificed so much, receive the care and the housing they so deserve as they go on their road to recovery.

---------


Let's help them out! Please post your suggestions, and a short blurb why you think the name should be used.

11. Is that what's at the bottom of it?
building maintenance has been contracted out and contractors are doing a shitty job?

18. I guarantee that they knew about this building all along
Just like they knew about the victims of Katrina in the Superdome and a host of other "lightbulb-off" moments along the way that have gone unchecked.
It is sad that the presstitute corpse ALLOW the "I forgot's" and the "I didn't know's" to go totally unquestioned like it is fact and that it is OKAY to forget the weakest and most vulnerable of our society.
Building 18 personifies the decay and rot that has ingrained itself in Washington. The rot that the press has allowed. The rot that both parties have fomented.

Cause he has not set foot in anything other than the photo op sites.

A real President would go stright down there Today and start taking names.

He will do a "Brownie" moment in about three weeks.
