Ummm. maybe they saw the light, realized it was high time to honor an
African American, decided to right a wrong, and all that good stuff.
That would reflect good on them.
Maybe.

Either that, or: maybe they looked up who's the next prez after Ford,
and found it was His Leftie Cluelessness Jimmy "I didn't inhale"
Carter. Then, from the lowest admiral to SECNAV up to POTweeTUS, they
all had a cow. A herd of cows. And they decided it was an urgent
priority to take action. Nyah.


Ummm?

Mmmmm...ya Dov...Carter...graduate of the Naval Academy! Who
announced “I support legislation amending Federal law to eliminate all
Federal criminal penalties for the possession of up to one ounce of
marijuana.”

Try Clinton who said, “When I was in England, I experimented with
marijuana a time or two, and I didn’t like it. I didn’t inhale and
never tried it again,”.

Apparently he preferred it baked in his brownies...



At least all of the abover were IN the
Navy. For awhile there the Navy was naming
ships after politicians like John Stennis
and Carl Vinson who merely threw money at
the navy budget regardless of their naval
background and even lack of it.



I've read that the Navy is running out of well known people to name their ships
after...

As a kid, I spent two weeks on the USS Breckenridge from SF to Okinawa...my most
vivid memory was my poor mother being seasick the entire time!...that and a
passenger who slipped, hit his head and died during the voyage.
