The USS John S. McCain is still shadowing the Kang Nam -- the North Korean vessel suspected of carrying weapons or nuclear material -- and it is currently 200 miles south of Shanghai, according to a senior U.S. defense official.

Ping, update on the Kang Nam.
Waiting to see if Bambi is a male or female.
The McCain will run out of fuel pretty soon. Who’s going to relieve her?
The NK’s aren’t exactly shaking in their shoes since, as of now, we have no mandate nor intention to board the ship.
But hey, we’re there to take NK on after they nuke Seoul and Tokyo!
Both, actually...shemale. Don’t ever expect decisive moves from the O’zer. He/she is incapable.
If we are only going to shadow the freighter. Well shoot I give up we are not going to do Jack $**t about it. Call off the destroyer send the the crew on R&R. Let the satellites watch it. Zero is a big Wus!!
Ready tubes one and two.
Zero is giving a press conference tomorrow, and will issue a very very very sincere stern warning to NK.... and then will have Hillary give a very disturbing warning to NK....then double dare them to do any thing disturbing to zero, if that does not work.. Joe Biden is sitting in the wings, with a prepared speech
Ummmmmmmm, what’s the point?
“The McCain will run out of fuel pretty soon. Who’s going to relieve her?”
Is there a “USS Sara Palin?”
As far as the core values of the REAL AMERICA, Obama has FAILED all his foreign policy tests so far. Pandering to our enemies is far easier than confronting them. It is Carter and Clinton on steroids -— deja vu.
Yes, I’m sure there must be a plan, but I’m not seeing it.
EEE...I wish our ship would have stop them before they reached China waters.
When McCain runs out of fuel, he simply stabs the GOP in the back and he’s good to go all over again.
LOL With Biden waiting in the wings, what do we have to worry about!! LOL
I’m no expert on international law, but could it be possible that there is a plan to board the ship in open waters as part of the PSI (Proliferation Security Initiative), “a U.S.-led mulitnational initiative involving the interdiction of third-country ships on the high seas on the basis of carrying nuclear materials”. It may be that the NK ship is still sailing within Chinese waters now, but once it leaves these waters maybe we’ll see an attempt to board it?
0bama's destroyer will vote present.
It would be a real shame if one night that ship struck an iceberg in the South China Sea.
