[Doomonyou]

Naming it the “Tripoli” is really bad timing

From the Halls of Montezuma

To the Shores of Tripoli;

We will fight our country's battles

In the air, on land and sea;

First to fight for right and freedom

And to keep our honor clean;

We are proud to claim the title

of United States Marine.

Come on everyone! Sing along!

[MadMax, the Grinning Reaper]

That was then, this is “now”.

Who was it? Jefferson who sent in the Marines? Adams?

Who was it who “DIDN”T SEND IN THE MARINES” to protect our Ambassador and embassy complex staff.

There is a difference.

This might be a ship that is not allowed to fire on anyone. Knowing how much of a fool SecNav Mabus is, I doubt that its’ shells actually have explosives in them.
