>But last month, in a ruling on a NRDC lawsuit challenging the Navy’s sonar training exercises off Southern California, the Supreme Court ruled that military training trumps protecting whales.

Chief Justice Roberts wrote forcing the Navy to deploy an inadequately trained anti-submarine fleet would jeopardize the safety of the fleet. He also wrote it was unclear how many marine mammals the Navy’s sonar exercises might harm.

It’s nice to know that W’s pick in CJ Roberts was a great one.

The President should simply declare we no longer have a submarine fleet and disavow any knowledge of any submarine activity much like we do with Delta Force.
