Truckers' Trucking Forum/Message Board - The Premiere Truck Driver Forum

Politics Do Not Pass/Pass With Care. Today's truckers are far more educated and cognizant of the issues regarding politics due to the sharp increase in talk radio, and various trucking news media sources. Talk politics. Do truckers like politicians?

United States Navy launches USS Barack H. Obama

Navy commissions USS Barack H. Obama

As a 6 year U.S. veteran sailor I am proud to pass this along to everyone.
The USS Barack H. Obama (CVS1) was commissioned today at a ribbon cutting ceremony.
The ship is the first of its kind in the Navy and a standing legacy to future President Barack Obama for his "foresight in military budget cuts".
She is a 100 foot flat top, constructed entirely from recycled aluminum and completely solar powered. Top speed is 5 knots.
It boasts an arsenal of one unarmed F14 tomcat which, although it cannot be launched, forms a menacing presence.
As a standing order there are no firearms allowed onboard.
The 20 person crew is completely diversified, including all races, creeds, sex and sexual orientation.
This crew, like the crew of the USS Jimmy Carter, is specially trained to avoid conflicts and appease any and all enemies of the U.S. and her allies.
An onboard type 1 DNC universal translator can send out messages of apology in any language to anyone who may find America offensive. The number of apologies are limitless and though some may seem hollow and disingenuous, the Navy advises all apologies will sound very sincere.
The ships purpose is not defined so much as a unit of national defense, but instead in times of conflict, the USS Clinton has orders to seek refuge in Canada.
Smoking is not permitted, although cigars (in deference to Bill Clinton) are welcome on national holidays.
The type of ensign being flown is unknown, if any.
The ship may be positioned near the democratic national party headquarters for photo ops.
You may be intelligent or you may be on the left, but you must admit that is some ship!!!!

Say isn't that a Tomcat? I thought they decomissioned that thing. Good luck getting that bird off the deck. Oh and here I thought you were talking about a fishing boat with a rusted deck gun helmed by a blind illegal immigrant.

The USS Palin was launched too early and now it's dragging down the rest of the fleet:

I dunno, it looks like she's getting hung up on the bridge issue.

The polls show someone else is getting hung up.

According to headlines, Bill Clinton is predicting a win for Obama and is going campaigning for him. If nothing else sinks Barry, that should.

I think Obama is in deep trouble now. Heck most everyone I know around here are hardcore Democrats and they are voting McCain now, period. My cousin just got his voter card today so he can as well. My Grandma is so disgusted she ain't voting for the FIRST time...and she is 86. So, I wouldn't put too much into Obama...this will be close though...real close. Heck, my Aunt...a REALLY hardcore Democrat hates Obama now for that "lipstick on a pig" comment!

The original post, which I'm sure was intended as humor is extremely funny!

Ronno, I can't agree with you here; "Hung Up" would be the wrong term, More like Capsized!!!!!!!
