Time to rename the "USS Ronald Reagan"

[KansDem]

A DU thread reports that Reagan ignored warnings about placing Marines in Beirut in 1983...

Aide: Reagan Warned Before Beirut Blast

Perhaps it's time to change the name of the carrier to reflect the true leadership abilities of Mr. Reagan.

I propose:

USS Huh?

and...

USS Zzzzzzz

Any other suggestions?

1. USS Lier, USS Forgotten, USS Deregulation, USS Hope (that you don't get

caught) USS Bull SH*T

2. I say keep the name

In keeping with Reagan's legacy, the ship was a billion dollars over budget, and was the only carrier to respond "I don't know", when the President asks "where are the carriers"?

3. Hmmmmm. TIme for pointless symbolic changes?

Wouldn't this subject be better broached after we had control of the house and senate?

4. USS Ronald Reagan, Jr.

8. Good idea! We would only need to add "Jr."

That would save the DOD a ton of money by not having to do a lot of scrapping and painting!

6. Can we rename "Reagan" National Airport while we're at it?

God, just strip the Reagan name off every damn thing those idolators have put it on.
