In regards to the claim they "Flew Over" the carrier....

Yeah I'm surprised at that.... as well as wondering if its accurate.

especially now it is militarily overstretched and economically indebted.
Oh imagine how many more overt challenges to the USA there is going to be if Obama or Hillary's run out of Iraq "plan" is done.
Think expansionist minded nations are gogin to sit back after seeing the USA won't fight..and if they do just bleed them and they will break.
Pffff...Somewhere in China some General type has to be thinking "we can invade Taiwan even if the USA resists...and win"



US military is "overstetched" becasue it is ridiculously small..Clinton gutted it and unfortunately Bush only recently started to expand it.
We couldn't fight Noth Korea and Iraq at the same time as the claim was in the late 90's.....the 2 war military is massively powerful but woefully inadequate for the needs of a nation like the USA.

We where supposed to be able to fight a conventional World War against the USSR..now we are overstretched fighting terrorists in two naitons with deployment scales not eveen close to Vietnam levels. Thats absurd.
