The Navy will commission a new attack submarine, the Jimmy Carter, tip to Drudge and The Navy Newsstand. Boy! That name will strike fear in the hearts of, well I don't know, maybe the Phillipine Navy.
Carter is the only U.S. President to have qualified for submarine duty, so I guess this is appropriate. Frankly I'd rather serve on the USS Howard Stern.
I notice that the submarine will be launched at Groton Connecticut. Maybe we can get them to launch from Groton South Dakota instead, assuming we can get the problem of no ocean figured out. Were about as far from the beach as its possible to get.
Maybe the Carter will have a long life and lots of happy hunting. But I predict that after its decommission it will still cruise around getting involved in affairs it doesn't understand and showing a marked fondness for the worst sorts of bad guys.
