During the hearing with Panetta last week, I was ready to jump out of my chair as I watched the ignorance regarding the statement by Panetta that he cancelled the deployment of the Navy Carrier USS Truman because of budget concerns, no doubt, because of the GOP. Wink Wink. Now we learn we cannot fuel the USS Lincoln. So the truth of the matter is they can't find biofuel and the Navy has wasted so much money going green.
Some more Navy news, and a good point about how "the sky is falling!" regarding military cuts are hard to take seriously. Hello, can we just stop using expensive biofuel first?
I am not sure whether I believe this is actual believing in green energy or simply another way to bankrupt the country. Great post Lin, God bless you!
God bless you, loopyloo.
It is all a show to get Boehner and the Republicans to beg for money for the military so Obama can say : “sure, I’ll let you have more money for the military if you give me more taxes on the rich.”
yep, the “show time” aspect of this whole thing is just too obvious. Know what? I hate being part of “the show.” Makes military service feel cheap.
