"Now that I’m logged back in, I’m not a sailor or in any way an expert in these matters, but don’t we need aircraft carriers in order to maintain air superiority?

Or could we do it from space?!"


I think it's a question of timing. A CSG parked offshore provides a (really well-armed) floating airfield. Eliminates the need for access/permission to land-based airfields. They're potentially a very quick response.

But they're also big targets. Is the juice worth the squeeze? Very complicated question.

My opinion is that POTUS is asking questions of very smart people and providing resources to DOD that will posture us for future conflict.

I trust the Plan. ;)

Does anyone know why the Beast went to Venice, Italy?
Don't get me wrong, I'm glad she's not getting airtime at any 9/11 memorials. It's just an odd day to be overseas...

More pictures of Her Heinous at this link. Skank. Talk about meme material! Have at it.
