Weren’t they talking about cutting this program? Gosh, maybe that’s not the best idea...

Why is the capability of the system even a matter of public discussion?

...followed up by a strongly worded letter of retaliation.

HUH? But the media and the left told me that “Star Wars” would not, could not work.That it was an old man's pipe dream.
Does this mean Ronald Reagan was right?
Naa, I am sure Carter, Clinton and 0bama will be given the credit.

But Obama said during the campaign that the missile defense system was unproven therefore it needed to be cut. Oh, come on, don't you know ANYthing? The minute Obambi got into office, his herds of unicorns farted out a fully-functional ABM system. THEN he cut the budget, as promised.
Right-wing extremist!! Sheesh!

...we’ll have to try and reason with the missile first.

It’s the “high probability” that doesn’t enthuse me too much... :-)

Those words will be the nail in the coffin of this administration.
Obama has no clue what’s happening. If I’m Kim Jong, I’d shoot for 3AM - that’s poetic.

You said — One miss could ruin your whole day.

Amen to that ... LOL...
I would like to see a bit more in the way of *results* before being too confident in that one. It sounds more like PR for public consumption than anything else...

When does a reporter ask Hillary if she is sorry/disappointed about Bill and Madeline Halfbright’s gift of the Nuclear Reactor to Little Kim which is now the source of all these problems?

President Reagan, thank you for your vision.
It still protects us.

Those words will be the nail in the coffin of this administration. Second to last nail. The last nail in the coffin will be when Fauxbama refuses to nuke NK after most of Los Angeles relocated to the upper atmosphere...because they don't have any more missiles and don't present any more of a threat, or they promise not to do it again, or the Chinese ambassador issued a stern warning AND was wearing a red shirt (signifying that he's really, really upset and serious), or ....
This is almost as stupid as Dean Acheson saying that South Korea is outside of our defensive cordon. In retrospect, it may turn out to be far, far more stupid.
What kind of a political whore is Gates, anyway, working for a defense-gutting, appeasement junkie like Fauxbama?
