9-11 and is the US Navy a joke of its former self

9-11
Flags are flying high here at the compound today in memory of 9-11.  This weekend is our annual “come and get us” party scheduled with red, white and blue 9-11 shirts, good food and American football planned. We eat and drink and tell the same old stories over again (but always with a new twist - some say lie - we prefer recovered memory), recall old friends and family - while waiting for the Islamo-Terror-Fascists to come attack us.  They never have. Bastards!

Looters break into store in Ft. Lauderdale
Yup.


Can the US Navy be fixed?
Sadly, this assessment of the once proud and capable US Navy is all true.  Lex commented on some of this after a visit to a US Naval Academy graduation ceremony where no less than 2 score midshipmen dropped out of the parade while demonstrating a total lack of drill skills.  That is unless "wander left, march"; "wander right, march"; “sort of cover if you can” and "take a seat if you feel like it" have been added to the Landing Party Manual.  

Navy Sec Ray Maybus's speech at the event was long on firsts - 1st woman here, 1st gay officer there, 1st Trans bathrooms, opening all MOS's to women & transgendered, total number of women and minos being advanced, a waiver for the Navy football QB if he got drafted into the NFL etc. etc. Missing was even one word about combat readiness, preparedness to take the fight to the enemy, the US Navy as America's vanguard, which, as demonstrated by the article, are pretty much non-existent in today's Navy.  

Lex noted then that Maybus's lone legacy is and always will be the surrender of two navy boats to the Iranians - that is all the evidence necessary of a totally F*ed up organization.  Way to go Ray.  You're doing a heck of job. 

Sadly, if the destruction of the US Navy as an effective fighting force was "his job", he did it well.  Which, as always, causes Lex to ask; Suppose Lefty Libs aren't anti-American, how would their actions be any different if they were?

Anything can be fixed.  For the Navy, it’ll take 25 years of sustained effort to purge itself of the self-serving azzbags who ran it into the ground have tried mightily to scuttle it and replace the social justice warriors with real war-fighting warriors focused on fighting and winning battles.

When you stop and think about it, that is the most basic function of American fighting forces.  Sadly it takes a backseat to PC BS.


Shrillda the Hutt’s book cover answers its own question.





Question asked at the top.  Question answered at the bottom.

Sooooo…
If a large percentage of flooded Texans have no flood insurance, can they just apply for it now claiming the three feet of water in their home is a “preexisting condition?”  Why not?
