The Bake Sales are Coming

I know Pentagon budget cuts are getting serious, but this is ridiculous:


First we rented out a carrier for a basketball game and now one is working nights as a car ferry?

Liberals always did say that they wanted our military to hold bake sales for weapons. Congratulations.

Those are actually the vehicles of sailors being transported home as USS Reagan heads to Washington state for an overhaul. It's cheaper to do it this way.

But it does disturb me at some level. I know that there is little chance of the ship being attacked, but I thought one lesson of the Chesapeake Affair was that American warships are ready to fight any time they are at sea.
