I hate it that we put civilian appointees over our military. Most are not even veterans, nor have most ever even shown a glimmer of patriotism. One disaster currently in the making is that Obambi is going to make John Kerry Secretary of the Navy...

I am fairly certain that the Founding Fathers wanted the military under civilian control. Secondly, Sen. Kerry is being considered for Secretary of Defense, not Secretary of the Navy, as I recall.

The current SECNAV kind of sucks, naming ships after these “progressive” civil rights leaders and, Gabby Giffords (not to discount what she went thru, but my goodness, what about the medal of honor winnerrs?). Mabus is terrible. I don’t see how Kerry could be worse as SECNAV.

When Kerry becomes Secretary of Defense, I’m going in my fox hole and never coming out. That guy hates the military - but then so does Hussein. The country really is toast economically and militarily. Time to prepare and hunker down.
