    U.S. activates its Missile Defense System

    in response to North Korea's expected missile test. The U.S. might be forced to shoot down the missle if it gets too close to the U.S. mainland.

    Crap's hitting the fan, folks!

    In a lighter note, what happens if all of this missile defense technology we've invested in really is the load of garbage that a lot of people say it is? What if we miss?

    Apparently its just as a precaution.

    I really don't think North Korea has the sack to lob a missile at the U.S.

    North Korea lobbing one at South Korea is fair game, though.

    If the North Koreans so much as threw a rock at the West Coast we would turn that whole country into a giant firepit. However, I disagree and do think that they are actually that stupid. I watched some pretty horific stuff on North Korea recently about what they are doing to their own people. We can only hope that they are next on the Shock & Awe Tour; they're sick fuggers (the government).

    Then again, maybe all the lefties in this country will walk on over there with a handful of flowers and try and "understand" why they don't like us.

    While firing the missile is still a very serious concern, I heard North Korea was still a ways away from actually making a nuclear bomb or something. Fox news was talking about that.

    Wouldn't that be something to watch on TV?

    They won't do it, because they know that the US's only retaliation will be to drop something on Pyongyang, and just to be certain, another major city over there. Simple, because North Korea has the worlds largest standing army, and I think it is somewhere around 1.5 million people. The dictator over there has it so the only way to make good money and keep your family at sustinance is for all males to join the army. So, if they threaten us, they know the US's only recourse will be a huge strike on two major cities. The same reasoning and same effect that the US had when they destroyed two Japanese cities during the end of WWII, instead of a costly land campaign.

    We could just nuke Korea off the map and be done with it.

    I'm one of those lefties ADH is talking about (well, I wouldn't go over there and give them flowers), but if they as much as point that missile in the U.S.' direction...well...it's self defense at that point

    It's nothing personal bro and you're a smart dude but I'm sick of the left right now. No matter what we do we are the bad guys while the UN and the Europeans (except the UK and a couple others) sit on their asses and talk till they're blue in the face. You would think they would have learned their lesson from the little guy with the mustache but obviously not (see Milosevic).

    If only it were this simple:


    My Fellow Americans: As you all know, the defeat of Iraq regime has

    been completed.



    Since congress does not want to spend any more money on this war, our

    mission in Iraq is complete.



    This morning I gave the order for a complete removal of all American

    forces from Iraq. This action will be complete within 30 days. It is

    now to begin the reckoning.



    Before me, I have two lists. One list contains the names of countries

    which have stood by our side during the Iraq conflict. This list is

    short. The United Kingdom, Spain, Bulgaria, Australia, and Poland are

    some of the countries listed there.



    The other list contains everyone not on the first list. Most of the

    world's nations are on that list. My press secretary will be

    distributing copies of both lists later this evening.



    Let me start by saying that effective immediately, foreign aid to

    those nations on List 2 ceases immediately and indefinitely. The money

    saved during the first year alone will pretty much pay for the costs

    of the Iraqi war.



    The American people are no longer going to pour money into third world

    Hell-holes and watch those government leaders grow fat on corruption.



    Need help with a famine? Wrestling with an epidemic? Call France.



    In the future, together with Congress, I will work to redirect this

    money toward solving the vexing social problems we still have at home.

    On that note, a word to terrorist organizations. Screw with us and we

    will hunt you down and eliminate you and all your friends from the

    face of the earth.



    Thirsting for a gutsy country to terrorize? Try France, or maybe

    China.



    I am ordering the immediate severing of diplomatic relations with

    France, Germany, and Russia. Thanks for all your help, comrades. We

    are retiring from NATO as well. Bon chance, mes amis.



    I have instructed the Mayor of New York City to begin towing the many

    UN diplomatic vehicles located in Manhattan with more than two unpaid

    parking tickets to sites where those vehicles will be stripped,

    shredded and crushed. I don't care about whatever treaty pertains to

    this. You creeps have tens of thousands of unpaid tickets. Pay those

    tickets tomorrow or watch your precious Benzes, Beamers and limos be

    turned over to some of the finest chop shops in the world. I love New

    York



    A special note to our neighbors. Canada is on List 2 Since we are

    likely to be seeing a lot more of each other, you folks might want to

    try not pissing us off for a change.





    Mexico is also on List 2. President Fox and his entire corrupt

    government really need an attitude adjustment. I will have a couple

    extra tank and infantry divisions sitting around. Guess where I am

    going to put em? Yep, border security. So start doing something with

    your oil.



    Oh, by the way, the United States is abrogating the NAFTA treaty -

    starting now.





    We are tired of the one-way highway. Immediately, we'll be drilling

    for oil in Alaska - which will take care of this c ountry's oil needs

    for decades to come. If you're an environmentalist who opposes this

    decision, I refer you to List 2 above: pick a country and move there.

    They care.



    It is time for America to focus on its own welfare and its own

    citizens. Some will accuse us of isolationism. I answer them by

    saying, "darn tootin."

    Nearly a century of trying to help folks

    live a decent life around the world has only earned us the undying

    enmity of just about everyone on the planet. It is time to eliminate

    hunger in America. It is time to eliminate homelessness in America. It

    is time to eliminate World Cup Soccer from America. To the nations on

    List 1, a final thought. Thanks guys. We owe you and we won't forget.

    To the nations on List 2, a final thought: You might want to learn to

    speak Arabic. God bless America. Thank you and good night. If you can

    read this, thank a teacher. If you are reading it in English, thank a

    soldier.

    Typical and I would expect nothing less from you.

    BTW, how are those Mexican rallies going these days? Told you it wouldn't work and now ILLEGAL immigrants all over the country are being rounded up and many are afraid to come out of their homes. It has only just begun my friend as Americans will not stop putting pressure on this isssue.

    It's the facist righties that don't understand why so many people hate us, then again they are a big part of the reason. You also got to remember that you righties seem to support these idiots until they are a believed threat to the US. See Bin Laden and Hussein. As for an missle coming our way, I doubt it happens but if it does then I agree North Korea would be making a huge mistake. It's one thing to stand by and try to come to a resolution, but it's another once you are attacked. Nuking them for the sake of nuking them because we fear them is just plain wrong and idiotic. But again I don't expect many to understand that. Nuke them, we get nuked...it's that simple.
