NASA's response: "No comment."

And did the responder do an obvious eye roll? He should have. The reporter moron doesn't even know what a stupid @ss he just made of himself.

Their timing is impeccable. If I have it correctly, they launched at just about exactly--at almost--six minutes before the Shuttle Launch.

Their's (DPRK) was a six minute flight, and then splashdown int to Sea of Japan. (about 600 to 700 km from Japanese coastline).

Therefore, the DPRK missile, the first one, made earth contact at exactly the liftoff time of the Shuttle. Kim is really stupid but interesting nonetheless.

Picture that scene from The Patriot ... the ball attended by Cornwallis in the "horseblanket" with the ditzy lady saying "oh, lovely! Fireworks" when the ship blew up.

"Seems to me they've just given us the perfect reason to blast that ICBM while it sits on the launch pad."

One good cruise missile on the Notsolongdong. Tell the world the NorthKoreaComs fired it and it blew up on the launch pad.

Fox is like the National Enquirer sometimes.

To Fox: Shut up and report!

NK coming into South Korea isnt the real worry. Its 1) china getting involved or 2) NK using the nukes they have 3) NK using the chemical or bio weapons they have

The South Korean military is good enough to handle the North.

Apparently both short range missiles.

But, does it matter?

Might be time to start taking out their launch sites before they fire the one capable of reaching our country.

Surely the little Gargoyle isn't THAT crazy, is he????
