The best proof that missile defense works is that liberals oppose it.
I got one of those freepmails too. Evidently sneaking around is what the left does!
It is definitely newsworthy when a goober on the left is challenged, bested, and silenced with facts and the truth. "They can't handle the truth". That's why they spin-speak in banal tongues, generalities mixed with old, scripted lies that don't pass the "make sense" test.
Way too often talking heads on the right seem unprepared to do verbal battle, they let the lefties spew out distortions without correcting them. Maybe they don't want to be rude? It's maddening! So kudos for telling us about Pinkerton's efforts.
I think we got insight into Gabler's personality. Did you see how he enjoyed the email compliment about being good looking? He just ate it up, laughed like a hyena, so thrilled was he. But the funniest part of Gabler watching is his finger point. He lectures when he speaks, and adds emphasis by accusatory pointing, sometimes with one hand, then the other, then both together all within one response. It's hilarious!
Poland is also thinking of signing onto missle defense.
Canada is coming on board as well
Gabler reminds me of John Kerry an idiot trying to present himself as an intellectual.
SDI may or may not have worked in 1983. The computer technology available then made it iffy. That is not the case now, processor speed makes accurately targeting a missile possible. Liberal opposition is their knee jerk reaction to anything that will defend the US. We have a major league 5th column in this country that seeks its destruction.
They jumped that shark ever since Reagan made "Strategic Defense Initiative" a household phrase, complete with dopey cartoons and idiotic "Ad Council" advertisements.
The reason is that an effective missile defense significantly reduces the leverage other countries have on US policy.
I don't know what these people are thinking.
Do they believe that man is not creative and inventive? That technology doesn't improve?
It may work (in fact, it does work to some degree as we've seen scuds get shot down in real war, and tests have shown it work).
But what alternative do these naysayer suggest? They just say "It can't be done" or "it doesn't work", but why and then what? What do they suggest we do otherwise? Just wait for the inevitable? Or pre-emptively surrender?
I don't get it.
The phrase is "divorced from reality". Use it, Gannon gets a royaty everytime you use it.
I get the same silence from loony libs when I ask them why, according to them, missile defense is impossible yet alternative fuel sources ahould be easy to find. Dopes.
thank you soooooooooooo much!!! Words just don't do Gabler justice. What an arrogant prick! He must think he's far superior to anyone else on the panel, always angry, always pointing, pointing, as if admonishing their stupidity. I wish someone would smack him.
They're not thinking. To them, new technology is only possible for lefty causes - like alternative energies.
I still cannot figure out why the democrats are so adamantly opposed to a missle defense shield, and none of my liberal acquaintences are able to give me an answer
The reason is that an effective missile defense significantly reduces the leverage other countries have on US policy....
BINGO!!!!This is how the left makes a living in DC...brokering "bargains" in the House and Senate for the rest of the world.
So in California, why doesn't reality own roughly half of all property?
Problem is, you really can't embarrass a shameless person.
Right up until about six months ago, we were hearing that missile defense was a waste of money because the chief danger from nuclear weapons was that nuclear rogue states would distribute their nukes to terrorists. Somebody forgot to tell that to NoKorea and Iran. Now that it's clear that nuclear rogue states want nuclear weapons in their arsenals for nuclear blackmail, not for use by anonymous terrorists, this ridiculous argument has evaporated.
But fear not. The lefties will have a new talking point soon. The best trial balloon I've heard so far is: "we don't want to make a big deal out of this because it just encourages them." Look for this to be developed into: "if we build missile defense, they'll just build better missiles."
Uh huh.
All the way back in the '80s the Soviets were jumping up and down and hollering about Reagan's "Star Wars" missle defense initiative - - they threatened this and threatened that and wouldn't sign treaties and basically had a giant hissy fit over the whole idea....
All the while, the liberal Democrats were yipping about how "Star Wars" could never work and was nothing but a huge waste of money, etc., etc. (See something wrong with this picture?)
Rational humans with IQs exceeding 85 could only shake their heads at the obvious contradiction.
Twenty years later the stupidity of liberals has apparently only entrenched itself further.
All you can do is shake your head.
Actually most of the property is owned by some Housekeepers.
When they get divorced they keep the house. Do that a few times and they get half several times.
