USS Bernardine Dohrn, USS Bill Ayres, USS Abbie Hoffman, USS George McGovern, USS Wayne Morse, USS Jane Fonda, USS Tom Hayden, USS Bobby Seale, USS John Kerry, USS Hillary Clinton, USS Huey P. Newton, USS Stokely Carmichael, USS H. Rap Brown, USS Angela Davis, USS Soledad Brothers, USS Charles Manson, USS Squeaky Fromme, USS Treasonweasel since every class of ships needs a name.

Either that or the guns and rockets will only fire when aimed at the US its assets or its allies.

Bill Clinton assumed office while having most of those characteristics.

“A U.S. Navy ship being named after an anti-2ndamendment extremist.”

A U.S. Navy ship being named after a still-living (sort of) anti-2ndamendment extremist.

Comm center not up to mil-sec but the Aldis Lamp is working fine.

Henceforth affectionately called the Gabby Blinker Lamp

hell they named one after a homosexual pedophile- Harvey Milk I believe his name was- But yeahm, this giffords ship doesn’t use ammo- it has loud speakers that the capt uses to yell at the enemy

[Uncle Sam 911]

I expect that ship to be renamed soon.

Is it painted pink with a red hammer & sickle?

The LEFT .. has their way with naming ships after people that the RIGHT didn’t feel were actually qualified to be considered the name of a ship: The recent “Murtha” ship comes to mind.

[Vinnie]

Mabus sparked a similar controversy last year when he named ships after labor leader Caesar Chavez, who served in the Navy for two years during his late teens, and nearly-assassinated congresswoman Gabrielle Giffords. Supporters of Mabus’s naming practices have noted that, in the past, ships have been named after people like aviator Amelia Earhart and civil rights leader Medgar Evers.

And a push for USS Harvey Milk

[Enchante]

It’s bad luck to re-name a ship but worse luck to serve on a ship named for a rabid anti-2A politician!

This is a no-win situation created by the Libtards.

[Jet Jaguar]

Ping.

[Hootowl]

I thought the rule used to be that anyone after whom a Naval vessel was named had to be dead. When did Giffords pass away?

[PROCON]

You know and I know it was because of PC BS.
