Buy a clue Admiral. The CHICOMS know exactly what they are doing.

Hey Admiral, how about America’s tepid response to North Korea sinking the ship? I must be honest, I don’t really care because I wonder why are we still there after 50 years. I say bring our troops home and put them on our southern border.

The ChiComs have their own game and it is NOT our game

Americans sound (are) so unbelievably naive when ‘wondering’ why the PRC, Putin, Chia-pet, Assad, Erdogan, Saud, Ahmawhackjob, et al don’t do what we think they should do....

answer = they are playing us for fools while doing exactly what they want to do

All the easier with the current jack-hole in chief. Betcha 0 rebukes Mullen for his ill-tempered comments about our red friends.

ROFL. Thanks.

Admiral Mike Mullin is the pansified CJCS who wants homosexuals serving openly in the military. This guy literally reeks impotence and leftist political correctness. If the rest of our navy’s leadership is anywhere close to this weak quisling, we’re sunk (literally).

Not middle east or terrorism, but our enemy. Admiral, you're "asking" China to step up in defense of South Korea, you have to be kidding. Be nice if we all sang Kumbaya together, but then we wouldn't need Admirals.

It is guys like him that make me embarrassed to be a Navy vet when I have to consider him.

If you mean by "our" the average patriotic American you are right. If you mean the administration who are now running this country and representing us to the world, you are wrong. The Chicoms and this administration have a lot in common.

You should see his namby pamby speeches to the troops. He’s clearly more concerned about social justice and political correctness than military readiness. He certainly doesn’t inspire my confidence in his ability to wage war, but I will say this, he fits the Obama (mal)administration to a T!

BTW, I’ve known good, bad, and terrible officers. Some of the best were tough as nails, politically incorrect, and abrasive at times, but they inspired confidence. I would have followed them anywhere. Unfortunately, many more were bureaucrats and managers who were simply working their way up the chain by being competent.

Yes. I know every branch has their scumbags...the Army had Wesley Clark, the Marines had Jack Murtha, etc. But I really don’t like this guy.

Mullin was part of the Navy cabal that invited the chicom navy to Pearl Harbor for a tour and tea. I remember being stunned to observe these USN toady fools in action.

Fits the mold of Gen Casey and the rest of the feckless military leadership. Just a group of Obammy like-minded puppets with a common trait of career appeasement grovelers. These guys sully the honor of our military.

Get out now and take your proud Islamic jihadi appeasement uniforms forever stained of the Ft Hood victims blood.

You all seem to be a pathetic bunch with the combined honor of our Congress. Be gone with your surrender buckets now.

Mullen saves his outrage for DADT, Chicoms woke him from his nap. If he got out from under the desk in the Oval office he would have a clue.

The Russians just said that North Korea did NOT sink the South Korean vessel.

Is this guy for real? Does he not know that China wants to see us weakened?
