GeorgeSimian 78 – (adjusting tinfoil hat) Maybe it’s easier to say the satellite doesn’t work than it is to explain it’s nefarious purpose.

In other words, this “top secret” satellite was a billion dollar boondoggle with no one held accountable, no investigation held, nothing. Just another little blip on our defense budget. How much armor would that satellite have bought for our troops? Or even better, how many schools could we have fixed here.</p> Speaking of the satellite, there’s plenty about how it costs 60 Million to shoot this thing down, but nothing about the fact that it probably cost a billion to get it up there, only to fail immediately.

You can say that again…

McCain’s done gone, people…That presser of his at 9 AM ET will simply stoke the fire. I guess he had no choice re: the presser. Damn if you do and damn if you don’t…

Firepup Freedom Fighters:

I gotta rant, this fuckin’ McCain thing has jest popped my last sane brain cell…they have poinsoned the well, Firepups, they have stolen all the fuit from the tree of liberty and sold the trunk for firewood ta some poor Somali village under contract thru USAID. There is soooooo much corruption that I’m not sure 8 or even 16 years of progressive government will get our Constitution back.

And gettin a non-fascist government in place next January ain’t a slam dunk…our struggle hasn’t really started yet!

KEEP THE FAITH AND PASS THE AMMUNITION…EVERYONE TAKES CARE OF EVERYONE!!!
