The troll joined FR 7 months before you did...11 years ago. That's a deep sleeper. :O

LOL. If he's going to use the excuse that he was in a hurry, then so will I.

I clicked on the link that proved to be worthless and then I turned my TV to FOX News, CNN and Headline News and there was no coverage of the launch.

Geraldo is cheering for It’s success! Why doesn’t he move to Venezuela, Cuba or NKorea? He’d be so much happier there!

No problem, TE. I know you’re a good egg.

Gaijin was the guy who used to Freep in DC during the Clinton years dressed as a Chinese general with wads of cash in his pockets. A bit of Freeper lore, if you will.

When I see his name, I can take it to the bank.

Looks like the Japanese were pu$$y$ all along. I thought they might have some back bone. I guess not.

It's possible they attempted to take the missile out but failed.

I think everyone just can’t believe it.

It’s true though. Man, Geraldo broke away.

I don’t know about you, but I’m praying. I can’t believe we break away when this thing could technically hit Alaska.

CNN’s on it.

I really do wonder about some people. I don’t know about Geraldo, but when you read essays suggesting that the Middle East would actually be MORE stable if Iran had nuclear weapons... I just wonder how they think!

Where? Did it deploy a satellite? Is Kim Jong Il going to steal signals from our television broadcasters with his satellite?

“(2nd LD) N. Korea fires long-range rocket: S. Korean official”

SNIPPET: “SEOUL, April 5 (Yonhap) — North Korea fired off a multistage rocket from a base along its east coast on Sunday, a senior South Korean foreign ministry official confirmed.

The blast-off occurred at around 11:30 a.m. and seems to have flown over Japan, the official told Yonhap News Agency, asking not to be named.

North Korea said the closely-watched launch was aimed at placing a satellite into orbit, while South Korea, the U.S, and Japan suspect it was a test of the reclusive communist nation’s most advanced missile.”
