WASHINGTON The military officer charged with monitoring North Korea at a time when the rogue nation is threatening to unleash missile attacks worldwide has used a Senate hearing to double down on his claim that it is global warming that is the real danger.
Navy Adm. Samuel Locklear III originally caused a stir just weeks ago when in a speech to scholars at Harvard and Tufts universities in Cambridge, Mass., he said the climate change factor should be the focus of American concern.
At todays hearing before the Senate Armed Services Committee he defended his assessment that global warming is the greatest threat to security in that part of the world.
According to the Boston Globe, Locklear said earlier, significant upheaval related to the warming planet
is probably the most likely thing that is going to happen
that will cripple the security environment, probably more likely than the other scenarios we all often talk about.

So the Navy that was supposed to protect the world from a North Korean missile attack, was apparently too busy with their fight against non-existant global warming to stop the missile. Yeah. That excuse ranks right up there with the dog ate my homework.
Hopefully, one of Lil Kim’s missiles is aimed right at this guy.
Can our military ever recover? I spent 20 years in the military. My son asked me if I thought it was a good idea if he joined the military. Very sadly, I had to say I did not think the country was worth defending anymore. It pains me to say that, and I hope it changes, but right now, that is how I feel. You are right, I think the majority of the brass are Obama boot lickers.
“He’s gay, Jim. He is gay. I’m sorry. Beam me up ...”.
I really expected this conversation to be about the use of the word “dwarf”. Doesn’t this admiral know how insensitive a word that is? Doesn’t he realize that the use of that word will undoubtedly cause the vertically-challenged leader of Korea to carry through on his threat to use nuclear weapons?
Right! What do those idiot “scientists” know about anything?
Other than juicy government (tax dollar) grants.
No doubt the admiral has political aspirations.
North Korea is such small-potatoes — Beneath the notice of the admiral leading the “Global Force for Good” or whatever they’re calling the US Navy these days. (Sarcasm)
Looks like his head got too close to the reactor - just like that other “nuckalah” genius Jimmie Carter.
