I never to found the factual story of that surrender of Navy personnel, so don't know if Obambi had much to do with it. Yes, I know about his cowardly ROE in Aftganiscrap and Iraq. In my Navy days (75-86), we were taught to fight at risk of life and limb against capture. Do you know what happened? A worse photo is them on their knees with beaten down expressions.

Weren't they on Kodiak with a 30 or 50 caliber? Yes, I should Google and not bother you.

Well that is, of course, a photoshop. I post to illustrate my disdain for Obama’s disdain for America and Americans.

As to what they were doing, why they surrendered, what they could have, should have, or might have done....I’m not the right person to ask.

Do we have enough resources to protect those districts where these people will be preventing whites from voting?

Don't know--Hope so !

Knew it was Photoshop. Seems like either I wasn’t paying attention or DOD decided not to share.

The character of this country IS on the ballot.

True enough. The Republicans are a mixed bag.

The Democrat Party represents, in its every candidate, unimaginable, satanic evil.

Choose wisely.

“You remind me of me when I was your age,” Obama told the young campaign workers, and he recalled that he had been “kind of a goof-off until my junior year,” when he recognized that there was more to life. It seemed, he said, “like the people I respect live their lives for some larger purpose.”

Some larger purpose...? Like Bill Ayres? Like Jane Fonda?
Like the grifters the clintons?

Baaaaah, the guy makes me sick. I hope he cracks up under
the reality of seeing his image implode.

Just researched the incident. One Riverine Command Boat broke down and the other followed it inadvertently into Iranian waters. Nine sailors were disciplined for a number of mistakes that led up to it. They tried to get away and then more Iranian patrol boats encircled them. Probably suicide if they fought against the Iranians. Still...

Then you have the two Navy warships colliding with commercial vessels, which were also due to poor training and/or lack of judgement. Many have been disciplined for those, including two Captains and the CNO fired.

WTF has happened to my Navy? Best guess is political correctness. One of those collisions was due to a woman OOD and another woman in CIC failing at their duties and having a personal squabble. I'm not sure if that was the Fitzgerald or the McCain.

Oops, it wasn't the CNO fired.

"The former head of the Japan-based 7th Fleet, Vice Adm. Joseph Aucoin, was fired in the aftermath of the collisions, as was Rear Adm. Charles Williams, a task force commander, as well as Destroyer Squadron 15 head Capt. Jeffrey Bennett."

Yes, the character of this country is on the ballot and we sure don’t want it to be the character of the country under Obama’s corrupt, lying, apologizing, racist regime.

Actually, it was on the ballot in 2016. Obama/Clinton were rejected; Trump elected.

Thanks for posting but I happily just don’t care what loser things Obama says anymore. He is old news.

Good, we’re back to character since the color his skin was the only thing on the 2008 and 2012 ballots.
