I don’t understand. I really, REALLY don’t get this.

I know the US Navy is not the one I served in nor the one my dad served in, but how, HOW could they support this? I have heard that the higher levels of the navy support this, and I am baffled.

It would be easy to say they are all political toeing some line, but I cannot imagine the Navy would support this.

If anyone has any explanation, I would like to hear it. This treaty sounds like something we should fight with all the energy we have.

You know, this story focuses on Obama, but buried near the fold is the real story. Obama can’t sign the treaty, even if he wanted to, until it is ratified by Congress. A Congress that has one house nearly deadlocked, and the other controlled by Republicans.

If this passes, it will be one more thing we can thank the socialist wing of the GOP for.

“I know the US Navy is not the one I served in nor the one my dad served in, but how, HOW could they support this?”

Clinton turned the military into a career in which one has to play ball with the libtards to be promoted.

Do you remember the incident in which a group of around a dozen Marine generals left in protest, and were told by the Clinton administration that if they spoke out their retirement benefits would be taken away?

To correct the situation we would have to get rid of pretty much all the perfumed princes. We would be promoting people from 0-4 to 0-10 until things settled out and got back on an even keel.
