Makes me want to puke.......
Gtfo...
Actually, the newest ship will be the USS Whitney Houston.
It’s a new prototype vessel: the Self-Destroyer.
Just proves that all one has to do to have a Navy ship named in their honor is, be a liberal, serve five years in US Congress, and survive a mass shooting.
I heard that the next aircraft carrier will be named the U.S.S. Trayvon Martin...
USS Gag Me
USS Kumbaya
USS Feel Good
Mrs. Giffords now chooses to support the seizure of our firearms, why would our Navy name an armed ship after her?
How about a hospital or a gym or a theater? That's more in keeping with her, ahem, sensibilities.
The Marxists/progressives/Democrats seem to love naming Naval assets after themselves. I do not understand why, it seems to be a "lose-lose".
.
Idiotic.
Armed with a single MA-2 .50 caliber Browning, this much feared naval vessel carries up to 30 rounds of aluminum piercing ammunition. It is the first in an entirely new naval architecture class -- technically, clitoral (not to be confused with littoral) -- being pushed on the Pentagon by the defense minded wussies in the Obama Administration as a cost-saving measure. If you look closely, you can see the heavy-duty seat restraint which prevents the pilot/gunner Kamakazi Kowalski from leaping from the vessel prior to engaging the enemy. The 12 V trolling motor which lacks a reverse function -- propels this sophisticated craft forward at a top speed of 4 knots. Reverse travel at approximately 35 knots -- is achieved by firing the Browning.
The no-bid contract to build 200 of these fearsome warships was to have been awarded to Obama-Soros-Emanuel Shipbuilding and Stormdoor Manufacturing (formerly General Dynamics) and will be administered by trusted Obama associate and former Chief-of-Staff Rahm Emanuel who commented that, at $12 million each, they are a bargain. They will be constructed exclusively at the companys facility in Kenya with major subcomponent production (rivets and miscellaneous fasteners) at the companys Harlem and Skokie plants. Delivery is expected to begin in 2024 (or as soon as the subcontractors funds are safely in the contractor's Swiss account).
I love the Onion.
Garbage scow?
This is just as innapropriate and patently offensive as the USS Trayvon Martin, or USS Homosexual Marriage. I don’t even recognise this country anymore. As Taylor said in planet of the apes, it’s a madhouse... a madhouse.
How can we afford to buy a new ship? With the sequester and all?
You’re got to be kidding. It’s like we’re living on bizzaro world.
Well....we send our queers and women to fight now...ships should be named sensitively as well.
How about some fighting heroes and names of warrior renown....nah, too old, male, angry and white.
It started to go to hell when they named a carrier for Carter whose only combat was with an aggressive aquatic rabbit and its been downhill ever since.
My father and and two uncles served on ships with names like Midway, Iowa, and Duncan.....now my sons will serve on the Gabby...oh wait...they won’t join a navy like this....and that guys is the plan. As well as Mabus boot-licking Obama and the libs wanting to memorialize another brain impaired gun victim prop before they plant old Jim Brady.
Ray Mabus is making quite a name for himself.
First the USS John P. Murtha and now the USS Gabrielle Giffords.
Ray baby needs to go, and soon.
I hope on day 1, someone scuttles the ship.
Better we name a ship after Crazy Horse or Sitting Bull...they were real warriors.
