US Carrier USS Theodore Roosevelt shadowing Iran ships. Administration officials can't agree why....

Any other administration and this would be on Saturday Night Live but this is REAL. Semi-retired President Obama is afraid to upset Iran so he will do...NOTHING.

An American aircraft carrier and its warplanes are shadowing an Iranian convoy approaching Yemen, as the U.S. beefs up its presence in the region -- but back in Washington, officials can't seem to agree on why.

Pentagon sources confirmed to Fox News that the USS Theodore Roosevelt is tracking the Iranian convoy, and also launching F/A-18 Hornets to conduct "manned reconnaissance" of the estimated nine Iranian ships.

Those ships are suspected of carrying weapons to rebel fighters in Yemen.

But State Department spokeswoman Marie Harf insisted Tuesday that the U.S. ships were "only" there to "ensure the shipping lanes remain open and safe" -- and "not to do anything in terms of those Iranian ships."

She blasted "misreporting" that asserted U.S. ships were prepared to intercept Iranian vessels.

If they're NOT prepared to intercept the Iranian vessels...WHY ARE THEY THERE?

Let's see.... Iranian warships tied to a country that says Death to Americans... Heading to Yemen to support Shia terrorists fighting against Sunni terrorists (the we support by proxy using Saudi Arabia) ....Iran has ships that use a highly effective version of the Exocet ship killing missile and we are sending nine warships to intercept those Iranian ships......nothing could go wrong there ... Nah nothing....

This is all they have......

They can't tell America how the GOP would run the country better than it has been run in the last 6.5 years.

So, they fall back to what they know best: Starting a new war that will be funded with more deficit spending. It's all they know.

The GOP defeat in 2016 is going to be massive. They will not know what hit them.

A leader is needed. Semi-retired President Obama is not and never has been a leader.

The GOP has no domestic agenda (or will never find one) for 2016. So, they are already trying to come on strong in foreign policy. Their solutions will include starting a new war with Iran as soon as their candidate is sworn-in (should this person win).

The American people are going to see right through this intent---they will not buy it!

If the economy continues to improve between now and the election, the people will not vote for any agenda which might upset this. If the GOP can't resonate in this area, they are toast!

What the GOP needs to pray for in order to win in 2016:

A major recession or stock market crash between now and November, 2016.

A new terror attack on American soil before then.

An Ebola outbreak in an American city.

Anything that will care the wits out of most Americans.

However, if the current economy continues to thrive even modestly--You're chances of winning will be very slim.

Thanks President Obama, trying to destroy your already fragile "Iranian Nuclear Framework"?

Obama is the best friend the MIC has ever had.

That is a good thing...... The Fundamentalist-envisioned proxy-war on behalf of Zionist-Israel against the world's Muslims: that is bad and should be avoided.

At least we know there will not be a war against Iran while Obama is still in office. Hopefully, the GOP defeat in 2016 will extend this timeframe outward.

It isn't even a "red line in the sand". The spokespersons for the Defense Department, two of them, could not give any reason for the carrier group shadowing the Iran convoy.

This is a day later and they still could not give a valid reason.

Perhaps semi-retire President Obama is providing an mightily armed escort for the Iranian convoy?

President Obama ran twice on the platform of disengagement from Middle East conflict. He was overwhelmingly accepted by Americans who elected him and reelected him. How hard is it for some to understand the STRATEGY of disengagement......it means not reacting to petty regional conflicts, and it means minimizing any response. It is a strategy which is sending chills down MIC and those who profit on war, but all the Butchmeups in the world are not going to change the American people.....we want none of it......and the President has that part down correct........not our fight, not our children's blood and wealth......if some people cannot get their small minds around those central tenets........then fortunately the small bus does not hold many and elections will support those who are firm on disengagement.

Hmmm. And just think, that same Iran and those same Shias have now filled the power vacuum left in Iraq by the U.S. invasion and occupation.

That dumbshit Dubya was warned about what his hair-brained invasion of Iraq would wrought. It had to be the worst foreign policy decision in the previous 100 years, but The Decider had already made up his mind long before the military mobilized for the invasion.

God help this country if we ever elect a doofus like Bush43 again as POTUS.

As you know, there was peace in Iraq for three years as Semi-retired President Obama mistakenly pulled out all our troops leaving a vacuum. We know what happens with a vacuum. Nature doesn't like vacuum's so something fills the vacuum. In this case it is ISIS...at first Semi-retired President Obama called them the JV of terrorists. I would say from the kidnappings terrorist attacks, videoed beheadings and murders, they've moved to the next class for the President's bracket.

President Obama has total chaos now around the world and here on our own shores and, the man is oblivious to what is going on around him.

Really "catastrophic?"  For whom?  The Saudis who funded the 911 hijackers are busy killing the Ayatollah's Shiite troops, and vice versa.

Way to Go Barack!!!
