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:
Congress Doesn’t Care about nothing but their pay checks!
Wake up America, Obama and his people have long ago DECLARED WAR against the American people and the American way. Its time to arrest, and Charge Obama, his staff, his Cabinet, Joe Biden, Hillary Clinton Eric Holder and all senior Federal Employees (who have ignored Federal Laws or assisted the Criminal actions of before mentioned) with TREASON, MURDER / GENOCIDE, FRAUD, BRIBERY and OTHERE HIGH CRIMES. Its time that True Law Enforcement Personal to do their Jobs, does not matter if your federal or local, its time to arrest the criminals who have destroyed laws of this land. Our Constitution is something that we live by, and all LEO’s have sworn to uphold and to Protect from all enemies foreign or DOMESTIC. Obama’s actions and lack of enforcement of laws, Close relationships with Terrorist shows enough proof that Mr. Obama and many of his people are DOMESTIC TERRORIST hell bent on destroying the U.S. Constitution and The United States Of America, THIS IS AN ACT OF WAR AGAINST THE PEOPLE OF THE UNTIED STATES. Just know I am not a Republican, Democrat, I am an American Veteran that has given half of my body to this country. If you love you life, stop being a shrew and stand up against the illegal actions. SHARE THIS IF YOU AGREE!!!
We have the right as American citizens to vote at every election and still some of these same IDIOTS keep getting back into office and have for decades!!! We all need to vote for whoever is not in office whoever they are at election time and weed out all these political lifers so we can get something done without everyone fearing each other about what they may have on them!!!
Impeach Obama
He is out dated and should be scraped!!! He was never any good ,a lying POS
Well why doesn’t someone stop him?
First the ARMY and now our NAVY. Just so his moslem brotherhood can try and take over our Country. Just not going to work. If only our Military would do there job.
Obama is a traitor!!!
Ha Ha Ha. This is one of the dumbest articles I’ve read in a while. Are you saying that you think the future of US Military power is in antiquated, slow, aircraft carriers? And scrapping these is somehow an indictment of Obama? Wow. First of all, step off the ledge, we’re not going to war with China. Secondly, if we ever did, the Chinese fight below the waterline with submarines, meaning that all of the investments made to Anti-Submarine Warfare will be well spent. Thirdly, the military is smartly investing in counter terrorism, and cyber security, not expensive equipment. Furthermore, every decision made that affects the military is not made solely by the POTUS. You’d be giving the president way too muhh credit, and definitely way too much blame, but that was really the point of the article anyway wasn’t it? Uneducated partisanship at the expense of real journalism.
Maybe Puton has the right idea to take down Muslim power and the boss has us by the nuts!
I say cut all money from congress!
Stop their pay!
