“It must be killing the lefties in Obamas admin that they have to send the carrier Bush”
Considering that Barky is pro-Muslim, and the SecDef is Muslim, perhaps they are sending “Bush” to be attacked?
What more fitting victory than a Muslim in the White Mosque setting up the carrier named after the President who defeated Muslims?
When discussing this Regime, and Barky, I suggest keeping an eye on the possibility of treason. As Nathaniel Grigsby said of the Democrats, “..beware this party of treason.”.

Whats Hagel going to do? A gay disco outreach program probably wont win over ISIS. Perhaps if they brought along a few goats?

We are ordering a carrier battle group into the Persian Gulf?? There is a possibility this will not end well.

Don’t be surprised if it’s a coordinated effort to sink the Bush or allow it to be sunk. Would Obammie be that evil? The answer should be obvious.
To: Olog-hai
I find the”Irony”of the name of the Aircraft-Carrier(G.H.W.Bush)to be AMAZING?????

Hagel orders nothing but Jack In the Box take out.

I think he’s evil enough. Then blame it on Hagel.

Okay, Chuck Hagel, are you saying that YOU have ordered this vessel into deployment, or did your Boss tell you to do it? The carrier was already deployed. Hormuz transits in and out of the Arabian Gulf are a routine occurrence for any USN ship in the Fifth Fleet AOR. We did 14 such transits during my most recent deployment.
This is not newsworthy whatsoever.

I just got off the phone with my son (a Infantry Officer,not in theatre)) who has a friend currently in Baghdad.
He is a contractor (non security type) and he says they can't all get out. They are currently filling sand bags and digging in.
He said they are in for the fight of (or for) their lives.
He also said there is sufficient amount of ammo and small weapons available.
They are concerned that if it gets close they won't have any close air support, which is the deciding factor when it gets to nut cuttin’ time.
Pray for these American sons, that they may be evacuated.

Obama is probably laughing cuz IIRC Hagel is an old Republican. Another words, we’re attacking one of our own.

The sad thing about that picture of the USS Reagan vs the USS Obama, is that you just know within 15 years of Odingo leaving office there will be a ship named after him. I just pry it is not a Carrier.
If the Rats are in power they will have no problem holding their nose (hate the Military) and spend the 16 Billion, chump change for them, to Commission an Aircraft Carrier whether we need one or not.

Oops, should have asked the question, do you have had to serve to have a Ship named after you?

Chuck ordered an aircraft carrier (one) INTO the Persian Gulf, into a narrow waterway shared with some of the world’s largest heaviest commercial shipping vessels, bottled up by a strait controlled by Iran and bordered by al Qaeda terror sanctuaries like Qatar?
and US land-based air and other forces to provide joint force protection are ... where?
what could possibly go wrong?
