This old Communist bumpkin must not be aware that the US is so broke we are hitching rides on Russian space flights.

Seriously.. be thankful that it is not still the Cold War and the Soviets believe that was one of our nukes?
Be thankful that the Cold War is over for we have a president who just might do what the Hollywood-commie-loving pukes did in the movie "Fail Safe".
To placate their commie heroes the Hollywood crowd had the President of the United States order an immediate nuclear strike on New York City. (At the time I think NYC had a Republican mayor and Obama probably would pick a Republican state to nuke.)

Watching several videos of the event, it was pretty gnarly. Must be something like seeing a nuke re-entry coming in, viewed from the bad side (downrange).
It comes in glowing, it comes in fast, and it blows up just about the time you’d expect an airburst. It’d be soiled undies time. I’d rather be ignorant and not have a clue what was happening.
