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:
HOw stupid…this is a long established policy that started under Mr. Bush and Rummy…they made the decision to build the Ford instead of refueling Enterprise…it was a bad call but once the Ford was started Big E had to go…the rest…the conventional ships old and worn out. you are goofy…this is just more anti obama stuff. BTW I got parts off of Saratoga….
Here is your sign people.
These mothballed ships were kept up and under constant maintenance. . Each of them.. prior to Obama could be steaming in 24 hours.. Obama wants all the infidels dead and a world wide caliphate
There isn’t a day that goes by lately that he isn’t doing something new to screw US.
Dirty Obama needs to fed to the Sharks.
You military people have to stands up to lose through Rinoco dictator. Just say no. Just say you’re not doing that. Just say you’re under arrest. That would be real coo.
Obama is a Coward
Time to ignore Obama. Halt any military destruction.
He hates America…He is a traitor,,,,
Maybe he will house some of the over 200K Muslims he is bringing in.
