put a major spanner in their economic works...

It could be underway. whats China make for us? besides doohickeys and doodelydoos?

Theyre investing heavily in the next phase but will we let them see it to fruition?

[Fudd Fan]

He is our Fearless Leader! lol

[lainie]

Think they can?

[carmenbmw]

Thank you!
From now on its *Doomacrats* ~~~
I love it!

[A CA Guy]

Everyone is launching Drudge says! Are the Jersey girls launching as well?

CNN is showing "Dead Wrong". A horrendously slanted view of the "intelligence failures" leading up to the Iraq war. Interviews with, amongst others" Larry Johnson and Little Dick Durbin.

Good thing no-one watches them, except the Defeatacrats at DU.

The effects of EMP have been known for 40 or more years. I'm sure any critical Military systems have been shielded. But the rest of us will be screwed as far as electronics are concerned!

A high-altitude nuclear detonation produces an immediate flux of gamma rays from the nuclear reactions within the device. These photons in turn produce high energy free electrons by Compton scattering at altitudes between (roughly) 20 and 40 km. These electrons are then trapped in the Earth’s magnetic field, giving rise to an oscillating electric current. This current is asymmetric in general and gives rise to a rapidly rising radiated electromagnetic field called an electromagnetic pulse (EMP). Because the electrons are trapped essentially simultaneously, a very large electromagnetic source radiates coherently.

The pulse can easily span continent-sized areas, and this radiation can affect systems on land, sea, and air. The first recorded EMP incident accompanied a high-altitude nuclear test over the South Pacific and resulted in power system failures as far away as Hawaii. A large device detonated at 400–500 km over Kansas would affect all of CONUS. The signal from such an event extends to the visual horizon as seen from the burst point.

Superman Returns does look pretty good.

Matt Lauer and Britney Spears...now there's a meeting of two intellectual giants...

[Cheapskate]

I think part of it is the sheer contempt that he displays toward ball the pos congress.

[SoCalPol]

We have a great military and proud to say I have several relatives in the Marines, Navy, & Air Force & Have done tours in Iraq.

[mylife]

[lainie]

I'm not launching anything. Except maybe my sanity.

[carmenbmw]

Thank you and your family for your service to our country!

[woofie]

I saw a bit of Chris Mathews today...what a joke ...Is Andrew Sullivan lost or what?

Their take du jour...Iraq is a "mess" no matter what ....Rove

leaked and got away with it

[sofaman]

Fabric, furniture, tons of consumables. Auto parts, components for everything from computers to furniture.

If that is cut off, we will have companies that manufacture and/ or import from China, dropping like flies, including publically traded comapnies.

the effect on OUR economy could be catastrophic in the short-term.

[BurbankKarl]

Britney needs to keep touring to feed her husbands drug habit...

[mylife]

I think one of our friends was lamenting AM reception earlier

Its called solar activity.

I saw DUmmies laffing that thats our medium. I was thinking that all technologies are valuable.

We'll survive despite the theats

[operation clinton cleanup]

I love to hear Mothers describe their children.... Matt Lauer is just trying to get Brit to freak out on camera. Why don't they do that to Jack Murtha?

[carmenbmw]

Britney Spears- an intellectual genius!
And I thought that I was dumb.....

[Liberty Valance]

Yo.
