The Navy estimates that the range, which would cost an estimated $100 million???! And where is this $100 Mil coming from??
Taxpayer$ are already paying for Wall Street's bailout, so in addition they will also be paying to cause further harm to whales as they calve?
Say it ain't so!
thanx Tony for this further proof of $tOOpity in govt.
