This is basic non-flat earth high school physics!
Contrail Shadows
Here's the original cbsla picture showing the contrail shadow;
My guess it was China or North Korea. It was rumored last April that Korea blew up the Gulf drill rig. Never proven and the Rats are blaming the construction company and BP. I would not put it beyond Obummer to do that. Like Clinton did with the TWA flight 800. Jack Cashill has been writing since that time that it was a missle that took Flight 800 down.
He's right that harassing ordinary American travellers shows how irresolute we are, but trying to pin it on Obama makes his point look merely partisan.
Actually, everyone has to remember that Rush is only right 99.6% of the time.
Did Rush really say that? I’ve been listening today.. I didn’t hear that. Must have stepped away for moment...
Sheesh... not you too, Rush?
Our lone voice of sanity in this crazy world... with a RUSHBO sized tin foil hat. :-(
Seriously, some people need to get their faces out of their monitors and look up in the sky every once in a while, especially at sunrise and sunset. It’s a fairly common occurrence in fly-over country where most of the planes are at cruising altitude and the humidity is higher.
Why would anyone believe the government over what they see with their own eyes?
I actually had one guy tell me on this forum that the fact that no air traffic controllers say they saw the missle on radar is proof that it was a missle!
I didn't even bother to respond. Some people are just lost. Bring the proof please, Rush.
Would it be embarrassing for Obama, if it were proven to have been a missile launch?
Has Obama ever lied to the American People?
How would Americans respond if they knew for a fact that a foreign missile was launched near our soil........ on Obama’s watch?
While I won’t argue the certainty of what it was or wasn’t, for me, there are just too many reasons why I am unable to believe ANYTHING that comes from the Obama administration.
It’s got to be true then.
Limbaugh is being a fool.
He’s right... in that an airplane, like any flying object, is technically a missile.
Pretty much makes it official then.
You don’t need an expert to distinguish a westbound vertical plume arcing away toward a setting sun, from an overhead horizontal contrail heading east. You DO need more than a 30-second or even a 90-second soundbite. You have to pay attention. You have to puzzle and think and ponder and reflect. You have to go outside and observe real lighting on evening clouds.
You have to put yourself in that gigantic three-dimensional world and visualize it. Don’t let somebody else do it for you. You do it. You have to use your own head, not someone else’s.
And be honest, contrail buyers: someone else has been doing the thinking for you. How else have you drawn your conclusions? Honest answer, only to yourself. You know. Well, now, here's your chance to go out and do it yourself. It's not easy, but it's the best way to know what's going on. As it is right now, you're letting somebody else tell you what's going on with regard to a pretty important thing.
Ignore "comparison” photos of other events or supposedly of the same event. Think logically: they serve the sole purpose of confusing and distracting you. Set them aside. The plane folks expect you to be satisfied with still shots of a moving event that they show you. Yet they're not satisfied with what would be thousands of still shots in the video clips. Right ....
Spend an hour or two. Turn off the TV. Get a pencil and a light.. Study the video clips. You don’t need to be an expert to figure it out, and when you figure it out, you realize that examining “evidence” from other photos is ludicrous. That’s probably the most pointedly ironic and sad thing about the whole dispute.
And be prepared for a world in which that was a missile, because it was. I hope and trust it was one of ours.
Either way, UPS has a great ad campaign to commemorate the epic of educated gullibility: “That’s not a missile – it’s UPS!” What can Brown do for you?
That’s why Rush is only right 97.?? percent of the time......LOL!
