The ‘RATS probably want to hold off until AFTER there is a mushroom cloud over one of our cities.

Well, now is a good time to test it, on Russia.

Oh, you’ve got to be kidding! Haven’t people learned that appeasement doesn’t work? Chamberlain tried it with Hitler and it was a disaster!

I'm convinced our anti-missile system works for two reasons:

1) The Russians are so upset about it.

2)The 'Rats are so upset about it.

The 'Rats know full well that it works to their ends.

Sad, but the Democrats, with this issue, may pull off even a bigger win in November if W and McCain don't come to their senses.

Americans don't want a hot or cold war with a cornered Russia. Nor do they enjoy seeing innocents dying in umpteen senseless localized confrontations.

Once again the Demoncrats would rather side with the enemy. Thank God that this congress was not in charge during any of this nations wars. They are a danger to us all, and need to be voted out ASAP!!!

Yup. They proved that during their own primaries (especially with the Florida & Michigan fiascoes.)

Exactly!!! Iran is already launching "space" rockets. Only by the Grace of God have we had this much time from the inception of the program until now without any incoming. But you know darned well that if a missile fell on us tomorrow, the hue and cry would be Bush's Fault from the RATs and the MSM. All the liberal votes against it would be forgotten.

True, but Poland is one of our allies and Russia cannot be allowed to conquer them.

Chamberlite Democrats...lie and lie and lie. Not only has it been almost 100 % successfully tested and in most way already fielded. Whats also of not is that these very people DemocRATS were the ones who have tried and tried and tried to END funding for continual testing that we want to do.

Sometimes I wonder if some of these democrats are not the very rope that the good ole boys of communism said they would use to hang us by.

Dang It! It's just not fair unless we give the messianic lunatics in Iran the chance to deploy their nuclear missiles first. What kind of monsters are we anyway? /s

If the city is Nashville or Tulsa, they won't care.

Democrats are basically treasonous. They will dig their heels in and protest that naysaying is part of the process. Nonsense.

Democrats can be counted on to demand payback from each patriotic act they perform, under duress and after as much delay as possible.
