The title is dishonest. The Navy was not "ready". This was forced on the Navy by the Obama administration.

This will further weaken our military and endanger the lives of our servicemen.

[TwelveOfTwenty]

the service may be pressured to adjust or lower standards for the jobs.

This country has gone insane.

[DaveyB]

Shouldn't that headline read that the SEALs will open doors for women. Especially if the doors are heavy or the woman is really foxy!

[DoughtyOne]

The really tough thing is, how do you turn this around?

Once this decision is made, it will be almost a political impossibility to declare women not eligible again.

[EEGator]

This will go over wonderfully in the SpecOps community...

[fhayek]

I would have no problem with Navy Seals opening doors to women. They are supposed to be gentlemnen, aren't they?

[A CA Guy]

What would be the need?

[Cletus.D.Yokel]

My understanding is that SpecFor is voluntary.

Let every male walk away and give SpecFor to the feminazi. See what happens.

[Jim W N]

The further weakening of our military forces in many ways.

Lots to reverse when the new guy enters the WH.

It’s unbelievable, even with this adminsitration from hell with Satan for a father, that Mabus had the gall to just dismiss a study which showed the negatives of opening up combat positions to females, and call it just a big lie. Just wait until his grand-daughters, if he has any, get drafted (it’s coming, because white straight males aren’t going to be enlisting in the numbers they used to).

[Cletus.D.Yokel]

Yes, Mr President.

We have a Secret Service force serving the White House of all female, all butch and bull-dykes.
No, sir. There are no men willing to dive in front of you to take a bullet. Your people are more the nurturing type.

[Hillarys Gate Cult]

Instructors will work under the idea that they will test and get it no more or less than anyone else but if it comes down to flip a coin, women get the OK. Political pressure demands that. Still wont be good enough. No women will get into training until the Seals are directed to pass one.

[Pollster1]

I am okay with women as SEALs - if the women pass the exact same tests and training that men have always faced to become SEALs. My guess: there are no women alive who could succeed in SEAL selection and training without modifications, not because Navy special forces are sexist but because there are so few men alive who have the upper body strength and the endurance to pass, and women biologically have less of each.

[DuncanWaring]

Ping.

[G Larry]

Will they get more food and rest like the team those 2 Ranger women trained with?

[ozzymandus]

Great. Might as well wimp out the SEALS, too.

[yarddog]

It is simple.

When we see women in the NFL then I will believe women have actually passed the special forces tests. (not counting place kickers).

[Viking2002]

They keep defining down the standards, and soon I'll qualify to train as a SEAL. And I'm 52 and swim like a cement mixer.

[RiseUpPatriots]

Well those dress unis are not going to clean themselves

[LeoWindhorse]

big mistake

lynch Mabus
