I agree with them. Do you think giving Don Schumacher 50 million dollars of the taxpayers money to sponser a Top Fuel car has helped our country?

Exclamation Re: Military out of Motorsports in 2013

I have commented on this before. With a son as a full time serviceman, I asked him about the sponsorships of race team and fishing teams.

He said the military is after a better grade of serviceman/woman and the feeling was anyone who attended the racing or fishing events had an interest in competition and more then likely had more intiative and intelligence then the average recruit smoking dope on a street corner in down town punkville.

I hate to see the sponsorships go. The long term result will be seen in the quality of recruits and eventually servicemen/women that come into and serve in the military. I don't forsee that quality to go up!

This is a bipartisan amendment that has a Southern Republican for a co-sponsor. The Pres has no input on this decision.
