Navy names a ship after Chazez...disgusting.

The naming of any US Naval Vessel after Cesar Chavez is not appropriate nor in the tradition of naming US vessels.Chavez was a union thug nothing more.Sure, he is a hero to the mental midgets on the left who buy the class warfare, fine but a US Naval Vessel should not be named after him.

Of course Reagan deserved a carrier named after him, he did a lot for the country and the military.Our Navy was a great force when Reagan left office and despite what revisionist lefties will try to contend, his eight years is what lead to us finally defeating the Soviets in the Cold War.

What did Chavez do? rallied a bunch of farmers and despite what the popular narrative is, he was not above using violence, in fact he was known for being rather ruthless.Chavez was scum , plain and simple and naming a ship after him gives some legitimacy, more so than a state dominated by hispanics, naming a holiday after him.

The Obama appointed SECNAV is getting ridiculous! The USS Gabrielle Giffords? Ok, terrible thing she was shot but does not deserve a ship named after her. JFK deserved one as he showed great leadership during the Cuban Missile Crisis and was the last decent Democrat to hold the office.

Like I said in the OP, I am sure the USS Eugene Debs is next lol or the Saul Alinsky, just a shame we have these idiots in charge.

With a bias like yours, one has to wonder if you can ever see anything clearly or rationally.

Can you cite specifics, or is this just more opinion pretending to be fact?

I never liked the idea of naming ships after anyone. England has the right idea. HMS Drum, HMS Illustrious, HMS Victory. Now those are real fighting ship names.

Sailor Steve · 05-08-12, 09:51 PM

HMS Hood, HMS Nelson, HMS Rodney, HMS Montcalm, HMS Duncan, HMS King George V, HMS King Edward VII, HMS Victoria, HMS Collingwood, HMS Benbow, HMS Anson, HMS Camperdown, HMS Russell, HMS Montagu, HMS Exmouth, HMS Albemarle...
