Sudan probably doesn’t have a nuclear missile defense.

They do, but it is a grizzled old dude with a flintlock musket.

Let’s hope it is not mistaken for a nuclear strike...

For sure...

Senator Barack Obama states that he hardly knows the comet and condemns its acts.

"We're excited since this is the first time we have issued a prediction that an object will enter Earth's atmosphere,"

It may be the first time you have predicted an object will enter Earth's atmosphere but predictions were made many times in WWI that shells fired by the German Paris gun would enter Earth's atmosphere. So did the V2 in WWII, So did the Russians and Americans. I can clearly remember Apollo capsules entering Earth's atmosphere. I also remember Skylab entering Earths atmosphere, etc,

"We want to stress that this object is not a threat,"

.....................well of course that's what they're gonna tell us. (McCain/Palin woulda won!).

Every few seconds a "snowball" the size of a small house breaks up as it approaches Earth and deposits a large cloud of water vapor in Earth's upper atmosphere.

A ton of meterorite material, usually grain sized, enters the atmosphere. Indeed, many scientists believe that this meteor dust seeds the clouds and causes rain!!

It’s a large meteoroid, not an asteroid. The one that hit a woman’s car in her driveway was probably about this size. It was seen across the NE US.

The astroid isn’t the threat...it’s the Rigelian slime beetle hiding inside it that is the real threat.

I think I’d prefer it to an Obama Presidency.

This is kinda wierd as the WEB BOT predicted that all heel will break loose starting October 7th

IS this the OCTOBER SUPRISE?

September 22-27 2008 are seen as precursor dates to a significant event expected to take place on October 7 2008.
Closely watch events during September 22 through 27 2008 for hints as to what to expect on October 7 2008. Although the predictions are not specific, the event is expected to be as significant as the events of 9/11.

- October 7 2008 to February 19 2008 will be filled with emotional intensity
The Web Bot has never picked up any event lasting this long. In comparison, the events of 9/11 lasted about 10 days. This event will be four months of high emotion.

- In October Global emotional release event begins – largely economic.
The rest of the world will begin to seriously question the stability and reliability of the U.S. dollar.

- Catastrophic collapse of the dollar is possible – as the language is active around that concept.
The Web Bot foresee consumer society confidence collapsing by mid November 2008. This could be a direct result of the recent government bailout and failure of several large financial institutions in the U.S. along with the devalued U.S. dollar and the increased cost of living.

WEB BOT? Got a link?

FWIW, the stock market (economy) typically tumbles the October before Presidential elections.
