Where is Bush on this?
Why hasnt T.Snow-job come out to whitewash it?
Why arent the democrats saying "SEE SEE Bush is totally incompetent(they would be right to)!"
All the weenies running our country care about is themselves.

While Reagan did have his faults(pulling out of Beirut), he did send a message to Khadaffi(although Pan AM 103 may have been the payback) and Iran when the navy sanka bunch of their boats and shot down the Iran Air 660. If you read the history, that really got to them and was one of the reasons Khomeini drank the poison chalice

If the carrier collides with the Chinese sub, the Chinese get to keep the entire crew hostage for a month.

Perhaps if we knew it was there, we do not want them to know we knew it was there.

Let them carry on in the ignorant bliss of their unknown unkowns...

"Admiral Fallon said that US forces had not been looking for submarines at the time."

And on Dec 7 1941 we had not been looking for fighter bombers over Pearl Harbor.

Niether was the skipper of the USS Indianapolis during the closing days of WW2. She now sits on the bottom of the pacific.

Yeah, and we weren't looking for Jap planes on Dec 7, 1941, but that didn't stop them from attacking us.

lol...I knew someone would point that out.

yawn...... I'm sure that our Navy is as far ahead of the Chinese as our Air Force and Naval Aviators.....

in other words.... one of their subs is gonna turn up, missing. too bad, so sad.

With our boomers and other devices that are classified I'm sure that the Chinese could just "sneak up" and stalk a carrier.

So in about a month or so when we read about this "tragic" Chinese sub accident, we can just shrug our shoulders and say, "don't know what happened. We weren't anywhere near it when it disappeared.... or were we?"
