“We don’t have enough women in either the Navy or the Marine Corps, and we’ve got to do a better job of recruiting and we’ve got to do a better job of retaining those women,” Navy Secretary Raymond Mabus Jr. said on Thursday.
He told a gathering at the National Press Club that he’s in the process of changing the U.S. Navy and Marine Corps uniforms—“so that when you look out, you see American sailors and Marines, not particularly female sailors or male sailors…And this is symbolic in terms of not segregating women, of making sure that they are substantively and symbolically the heart of our force, power.”
Uniforms aren’t the only things that are changing: The Navy says all new surface ships are built from the keel up to accommodate women. Older ships undergo “habitability modifications,” such as replacing urinals with toilets. …

Just another stupid obamatron. Hey mabus, did you ever think that maybe we don’t have enough WARRIORS in the USN or USMC? I’m sure our enemies will be impressed with your commitment to affirmative action as they are killing our service members you moron.
“Democrats HATE women. They hate life. They hate God. I think that sums it up.”
Add They hate America, the US military, Christianity, freedom, white people, man, I could go on..

Re the Marines: they still have standards with respect to physical combat ability.
Re the Navy: (redacted)
PS I had a female friend who was a retired Marine. About 120 lbs. but made of iron, as one campus area rapist (still in prison) found out. Short version: None of the blood on the walls was hers.
“Community organizing” for the Navy and USMC.
WTF !!
Is he expressing his personal opinion?
If so, WTF, again.
Has he been told what to say?
Again, WTF ?
Did he have a meeting with his staff ahead of time to discuss what he was going to say?
WTF.
why not just have a lesbian battalion.
What is “enough”?
What mission is not being accomplished?
What Navy member would not want to put this idiot to the guillotine?
Not to worry, after CW-II, justice will be served.
Liberals will not be happy.
Fool or tool?
This isn't incompetence, ignorance or stupidity.
This is a deliberate effort, at the very highest levels (the Oval Office) to damage, degrade and destroy the United States of America.
Simply put: The President and his stooges are TRAITORS.
We won’t have true equality in this country until every female between the ages of 18 and 55 is forced to register with the Selective Service.
They should make him wear a skirt to work every other week. Just saying. ;-)
Well, I didn’t join the Navy to ride the Waves, it just worked out that way!
Seriously, there is a place in the USN and the USMC for women; jut not in combat roles or in combat ships!
The people that made those stupid decisions to “integrate” women into the combat arms made a serious mistake!
And high heels!
So, here is the deal, Secretary Mabus:
When your standards are too high, lower your standards!
He’d probably enjoy that.
