Summary of new History Channel (cable) show outlining attack on Washington DC with small nuclear weapon and the response to it

Day After Disaster

Against a morning sky, a mushroom cloud spirals heavenward. A nuclear bomb has detonated in the heart of Washington D.C., incinerating 15,000 residents in just 15 seconds. More than 50% of the population living within a 1/2 mile radius of the explosion is either dead or severely injured. The next 24 hours will determine whether the rest of the city lives or dies. To survive this horrific ordeal they will need a plan. And lucky for us--there is one. But will it work? For the first time on television, the Department of Homeland Security reveals the most detailed and comprehensive plan to save America should terrorists go nuclear. This chilling two-hour special delves into the complex and highly secretive world of disaster planning.

Nuking Washington might be beneficial for this country.

Did it show three hundred zillion Americans asking if the IRS survived? :)

Were Pelosi, Reid, and Obama “conveniently” out of town when it happened?

lmao! Yeah, if they could just contain the damage to the White House and liberal and RINO office buildings it would help a lot. Unfortunately in such a plan too many innocents would perish.

You know, if you really thought about it, rounding up the 545 corrupt criminals in Washington DC would not be that difficult, and it could easily be done without a nuclear weapon.

I think one poster said the easiest way to get rid of the power of these individuals is for all of us just to send in our tax statements with an IOU for a few years and stop funding their activities.

We all need to sign up for the maximum number of dependants allowable (wasn’t it allowable for an individual to claim up to 10 dependants?), which would reduce our current tax deductions to zip to nil, then at the end of the year refuse to send them one freaking dime.

Peaceful revolution to take back our country. We’ve got to get innovative on how to go about that.

>>> sign up for the maximum number of dependants allowable (wasn’t it allowable for an individual to claim up to 10 dependants? <<<

Just an FYI, it’s 8 **exemptions**, not 10 dependents. Many people mistakenly think it’s about dependents, but it is not.

And it reduces withholding (that’s the whole point), but not even close to zero $$$.

IRS has broken up its operations and is spread all over the US so that there is less chance of them getting hit.

Then you have to get very creative at filing time so you dont have to pay in additional money. It is time to repeal the 16th, put the IRS out to grass, and install the Free Tax. It is insane that we have people out of work, out of homes, and losing everything we have so we can send our tax money to assist Korea and Libya....just WTH is going on in the minds of our elected officials.

Send them nothing. STARVE THEM OUT.

The White House run by Liberals = NO LOSS
The House run by Liberals = LO LOSS
The Senate run by Liberals = NO LOSS

As for the crime ridden population of DC = NO LOSS

Next question?

The company that owns that channel is plugging the "2012" movie due to be released in a week or so.

Here's its link for cut & paste: http://www.whowillsurvive2012.com/

This is all about money. They're even talking about an advertising "roadblock" where they buy a chunk of time (same time) on all the channels they can get and run a five or ten minute infomercial so there's no way to avoid it but turn off your TV.

There are some critical big bucks at stake on this.

In the mean time they will run everything science show they can that supports the movie

Sad to say, but Obama’s weakness in making critical decisions, his willingness to appease, his disarming of our military and especially his abandonment of any serious opposition to international terrorism makes the nuking of some American city a very real possibility.
