A story in today's San Diego Union-Tribune contains the latest "Stupid Quote of the Day."

The story is about sewage problems at Camp Pendleton Marine Corps Base. According to environmentalists the base's five treatment plants have tallied more than 14,000 discharge and monitoring violations over the past two years.

Now, this isn't good. It needs to stop and the problems need to be fixed, but attorney Marco Gonzalez of San Diego Baykeeper environmental group goes a little overboard.

"We feel there is nothing more patriotic than clean water."

Yes! If we don't keep s*** out of the ocean, than the terrorists will have won!
