Being prepared for a conflict means keeping serviceable the old ships, especially carriers. Currently there are six oil fueled platforms in mothballs, but ready to spring to service if needed. Then Obama found them.
Since the start of 2014, the Obama Administration has been actually rushing these conventional-fueled ships to Brownsville, Texas, to be scrapped. Four of these ships, USS Forrestal (CV 59), USS Saratoga (CV 60), USS Ranger (CV 61), and USS Constellation (CV 64) have been towed to Brownsville, and a fifth, USS Independence (CV 62), is slated to join them.
That is bad enough, but a sixth carrier, USS Enterprise (CVN 65), was also slated for the scrap yard, and the Obama Administration has already begun that task, even as Russia and China have become more aggressive. How Obama guts the navy is on the next page:
It’s quite simple if war looks likely on the horizon you build up your military to defend yourself & place your military assets to combat the enemy. You do not downsize your military to then give your enemy the upper hand. You can’t win a battle if your enemy greatly outnumbers you & has superior weapons.
Just amazing. Leave it to the Democrat and we will be a 3rd world nation very soon.
How many more days until the Muslim is finally out of the Whitehouse
A big mistake!!!
BTW B-Rack did I forget to mention it won’t be our navy sinking your invading ships?
shameful

Well good luck with that. Most Americans have guns. That’s why Obama wants them. But he will have the biggest fight ever if he tries. It will be suicide for him.
Obama blows the navy off lol
Ayatollah Obama, Leave the armed forces alone. They are the only thing protecting our country. If you were not to old I hope that the Marines would put you in boot camp. It would make you respect the hardships service men and women go through
