satallite warfare

[hugme]

this is REALLY, REALLY bad.. I don't think 99% of you can really fathom how bad this is for more than just the 'warfare in space' reason. You can't have thousands of pices of debree orbiting the earth at mach 32. we are REALLY fucking ourself over.

Of all the things Bush could have done... this is the worse... I disagreed with him many times before but this is just insane. He doesn't understand what's going on or the importance of it.

This is WORSE than this war we are still in for some strange reason.

here is the story (from several sources of course):

How is any of this Bush's fault?

p.s.

Ronald Reagan saw this coming back in the eighties and everyone laughed at him...remember Star Wars?...

When President Hillary proposes this in 2009, it'll be hailed as great wisdom and foresight and doing it for the children...because it'll be a Democrat proposing it...

That's not funny! don't even suggest it!

no laughter here...after the inauguration she'll want to do something to show she and the Dems have cojones and dont loathe the military...hence she'll order a conflict someplace else to show her strength...hopefully not space, but I put nothing past her...

I never said it was bush's fault

I think he is a warmongering asshole for his reaction to it not the event
