Rep. Duncan Hunter: Navy secretary a 'greater threat' to Marines than ISIL

Politico ^ | January 8, 2016 | Jeremy Herd

[QT3.14]

Rep. Duncan Hunter has had enough of Navy Secretary Ray Mabus' strong support for opening all Marine combat posts to women, declaring him "a greater threat to the Marine Corps than ISIS.”

The Republican congressman and Marine veteran from California, who served in Iraq and Afghanistan, is furious with Mabus for pushing through an end to the ban on women serving in all combat positions over the Marine Corps' objections. Particularly, he's taking exception to memo Mabus sent to the Marines Corps this week, instructing it integrate Marine boot camp, which has been separate for men and women, and change job titles so they’re gender neutral.

My tagline says it all.

Navy Secretary Ray Mabus is a traitor. The only place he should be standing following his trial and conviction is on the gallows, waiting for that short drop and quick stop, to the sounds of the awaiting and cheering crowd.

[jazusamo]

Rep. Duncan Hunter is dead on the mark, Mabus has his lips firmly attached to 0bama’s backside.

War on Women by the Sec of the Navy - Gay Ray?.....

Mabus will soon die, then will come, A horrible undoing of people and animals. At once one will see vengeance, One hundred hands, thirst, famine, when the comet will pass.

[lee martell]

Some on Coast to Coast have said the name Mabus is one often used by Nostrodamus to mean the Anti-Christ or Satanic forces. I’m sure it’s just an unfortunate coincidence.

From the article:

“Hunter said he’s eyeing legislation to try to address women in combat, but wasn’t sure yet what that would entail.

House Armed Services Chairman Mac Thornberry (R-Texas) and Senate Armed Services Chairman John McCain (R-Ariz.) have said they want to hold hearings on the issue, but neither has suggested they’ll try to block the changes.

Hunter said that many congressional colleagues — Republicans and Democrats alike — were avoiding the issue. “Other members of Congress don’t want to talk about this,” he said.”

Most of the Republicans are scared to death of any issue they view as playing into the Democrats slur of “Republican war on women”. They have surrendered this fight to an anti-military, anti-American cabal, and America will suffer greatly in the degradation of its ability to defend itself.

[forgotten man]

Mabus is the guy who likes to name ships after living Democrats (like Gabby Giffords) and another ship for Cesar Chavez. He put a woman in command of the third fleet in San Diego although she was not close to being the best qualified, if qualified at all.

[BenLurkin]

The Gabby Giffords

Sounds like a bad luck name, if ever there was one, for any ship.

[holyscroller]

"House Armed Services Chairman Mac Thornberry (R-Texas) and Senate Armed Services Chairman John McCain (R-Ariz.) have said they want to hold hearings on the issue, but neither has suggested they’ll try to block the changes."

Maybe McCain could volunteer his fat mouthy daughter to be the first volunteer. She's more than equal to the task. She spews enough hate and venom to make most enemies run for cover.

[huldah1776]

He is a threat to the Marines therefore he is a threat to our nation.

[vetvetdoug]

Mabus was an asswipe when he was Governor of Mississippi. I have two letter responses from him that show how much intestinal fortitude he possesses. He fits Obama’s agenda well.

[Retain Mike]

Below is the letter I sent to Senators and my Congressman. I sent the letter and the gender neutral article to my high school alumni who served in the Marine Corps in Vietnam. We are of the opinion the armed forces have been irreparably broken.

Be sure to check out the photo of Secretary of the Navy Ray Mabus. He looks to me like someone who should be holding personnel seminars at Health and Human Services. I would not want to have anything to do with the gooey product resulting from the fulfillment of his vision. I think it is time to retire the service dress blues for a mauve uniform with a pink stripe and fashionable French berets.

Considering the defense secretary claimed a long period of study and vigorous debate, I maintain discussion was among those mutually supportive creatures that have metastasized throughout the military to serve the LGBT and feminist social agendas. Most of the points I highlight below about women in combat first arose when the decision was imposed to do away with DADT. A lot of good men are going to have to die in years to come to cover up this needless disaster.

LETTER SENT TO MY COGRESSMAN AND ALL SENATORS

The Tragedy of Women in Combat

Ash Carter’s announcement demonstrates this Administration’s attachment to a political ideology fueled by arrogance and premeditated ignorance. Any long period of study and vigorous debate has been among those mutually supportive creatures that have metastasized throughout the military to serve a social agenda bringing future needless devastation.

This tragedy of women in combat provides another reason I now always council men to never enter the armed forces. Social engineering that amalgamates feminist ideals everywhere has now become the over arching imperative to which all operational capabilities must submit.

However, combat operations too often demand unpredictably and unimaginably exhausting brutality to achieve victory. Therefore, only the highest physical abilities and most severe restrictions on human emotions and behaviors can foster the required high morale, good order and discipline, and unit cohesion required.

Human sexuality simply cannot intrude into this sub-culture where only those displaying the greatest savagery and endurance can hope to win. Resorting to war for national defense entails the ultimate Olympics of conflict occurring at the bleeding edge of existence where the unbelievable becomes the possible. Here there is much less excuse for merging men and women into these struggles than exists for the athletic competitions held every four years.

Combat forms personnel into small, rigid, task oriented units. These people continuously face extraordinary stress punctuated by killing other humans. At the point of collision, they undertake actions requiring sacrificial, primitive and intimate actions. Such environments are inherently chaotic, barbaric, and brittle. They can be overcome only by a totalitarian leadership and narrow focus unimaginable for those who see any opportunity for the social alchemy popular in civilian life.

The regimental combat teams for infantry, mechanized and armored units are now the playthings of bureaucrats committed to equal opportunity and affirmative action. They are dismissive of warriors enduring the brutal carnage imperative for victory. Institutional memories no longer exist for fighting ferocious, shrewd enemies such as the Germans, Japanese, Chinese, and North Vietnamese, who utilized a full array of modern weapons. If one notes the ribbons on any senior officer’s uniform, they show they fought only Arabs the Israelis beat three times at 20 to 1 odds. Such people now question the necessity for high standards which do not obfuscate or allow inferior female performance.

Women not only do not belong at the pointy end of the spear, but should not be holding it to the extent the combat arms must depend on their savagery. As this tragedy unfolds I will remember the quote that, “Men sleep peacefully in their beds at night because rough men stand ready to do violence on their behalf”.

When you find that BAM that can carry, NOT DRAG, my shrapnel riddled body back 500 meters to the rear at Khe Sahn you let me know.
Bam ( Big Assed Marine) is not meant as a derogatory term here, hell I married one, but I never met one who could do that job. There are lots of jobs in the CORPS that women can do, COMBAT IS NOT ONE. Glad I was OLD CORPS, not this new "we are all equal shit", because were NOT.

SEMPER FI.

Donald Trump needs to say out loud that he will reverse these orders from Ray Mabus and obama.
