N. Korea Missile "Flight Plan" Indicates Hawaii Trajectory; Meanwhile Chinese not happy about Obamanomics
Once upon a time we had leaders who would never have permitted something like this to happen. John F. Kennedy? Would have blown this thing out of the sky. Period. Reagan? Not even in question. Not only would taking out this missile call the bluff of the monsters who run that country, it would also send a very strong message to the Iranians.
Which is precisely why it is not going to happen with our current "leadership". In fact, if I am wrong about this; if Obama actually does have the cojones to do take this missile down, I will send $50 bucks to the first person who scoreboards me on my skepticism after the fact in the comments section of this post.
Or--maybe he will just have his boy Geithner print up another trillion dollars and pay off the Koreans not to fire the thing. But I doubt the ChiComms would be very happy about that remedy.
Note to self: It has gotten pretty bad when the Chinese arguably will have more influence over the actions of our own President than the taxpayers of his own country.
Maybe it is time to tell the people in Washington who really runs this country. Fortunately, enough of us are starting to figure out the obvious.
