That is good news at least for now.  You never know what those yahoos in DC will do.

We bought another year at least.

Great news!  Hopefully we'll get many more years.

Good news.  I'm glad the're keeping it there.

Moral of the story? Don't mess with Fisherman's wives.

Good that the base stays active.  Bad the process it took.  Next segment of the story will be how much the incoming congress decides to chop from the budget next year.  You think the CG had budget problems before?  They, and the rest of us in the fed gov, anticipate a hell of a lot more cutting.  Everywhere.
