Hmmm...Is this Karl Rove's October Surprise? Getting a little bored with the weather machine, is he?
Perhaps I should have whispered that. DUmmies may be lurking. ;^)
Bush's fault.
Correct me if I am wrong, but isn't this the same guy who told us that we were going to get hit sometime in May of this year with the same space rock?
This is fishy. I generally hear that a trajectory for an object that far out can't be calculated that finely. It would be more like "it has some small chance of coming somewhere within the circle of the earth's orbit."
time to start looting?
What? Why weren't we warned earlier about this?
Wait, wasn't the world supposed to have ended in August? I bet that is the reason the powers that be felt it was not necessary to tell us about the comet.
At least it will happen before Nancy Pelosi is handed the Speaker's gavel.
Would it be reasonable to assume a government big budget program already exists to address this?
Could Congress be recalled to spin something up, rig those Haliburton voting machines or at least look the other way while making official announcements of new study plans?
At least move the election up so the democraps can claim victory for a day, before the finaly tally comes in (along with the jumbocomet).

LOL! Not much.
Still true today: "There is no truth in Pravda, and there is no news in Izvestiya."
In other news, Donald Duck entered a treatment center and the Ides of March have moved to November.
Apparently all of the other astronomers haven't been paying attention for quite a while. Or this one has the only working telescope.
I mean the "End of the World" parties were lots of fun and all, but isn't it a little too soon to do this again? Even New year's Eve only comes...well, once a year.
How did Rove pull THIS off?
EVERYONE PANIC!!!!!!!!!!!!
Absolutely.. never never would there be a little bitty comet that would make for an entertaining evening of sky gazing and fireworks.. when it hit the MOON.. Wonder why "in past lives" nobody, I mean nobody, was a parasitic pickpocket.. but instead were a "KING or Queen"..
No, that's cool, dude. Mass panics are always more organized when we have a little "heads up," you know?
I can't stand a disorganized mass panic.
I need to stock up on beer for the "We're All Gonna Die in the Comet Crash" party. I guess I can use the same decorations I recently used for the August 22 "Ahmadinejad's Gonna Nuke Us All" party?
Is this Rove's big October surprise?
