Don't Get Mad, Get Even
The Democrats need to start playing hardball with some of these recalcitrant GOP senators and other politicians.
One way to even scores is close some militarily installations: The contribution of the Navy and the Air Force have been limited in the Iraq and Afghanistan wars. The Obama administration could close some Navy and Air Force installations with little impact on the overall mission of the Armed Services.
Some states that the Obama administration should take a hard look at are Oklahoma, South Carolina, Tennessee and Texas.
Oklahoma seems to have an excess of ignorant politicians who need some object lessons. Ditto for South Carolina, the state that started the Civil War. Tennessee has become a hot bed or racism. Texas is bloated with military installations form the Johnson era. Below are some of the installations that could be considered for closure.
Oklahoma
Altus AFB, OK
Fort Sill, OK
McAlester Army Ammo, OK
Tinker AFB, OK
Vance AFB, OK
South Carolina
Charleston AFB, SC
Fort Jackson, SC
MCAS Beaufort, SC
MCRD Parris Island, SC
NWS Charleston, SC
Shaw AFB, SC
Tennessee
Arnold AFB, TN
NSA Mid-South, TN
Texas
Brooks AFB, TX
Dyess AFB, TX
Fort Bliss, TX
Fort Hood, TX
Fort Sam Houston, TX
Goodfellow AFB, TX
Kelly AFB, TX
Lackland AFB, TX
Laughlin AFB, TX
NAS Corpus Christi, TX
NAS JRB Fort Worth, TX
NAS Kingsville, TX
NS Ingleside, TX
Randolph AFB, TX

Turnabout is fair play. Make the right wing bleed. Perhaps they will grow up.
Rightardia has mentioned before that its the Red States that are the recipient states of the federal revenue largess. The Armed Services pump billions of federal dollars into the Red States. The majority of Americans who don't pay taxes in the US also live in the Red States.
