That’s ok, you may have it easier next year - there’s a story out there that A-Rod is opting out of his contract, which likely means he won’t be a Yankee anymore.

Postol is always trying to say things that harm our ability to deploy a missile defense, even if he has to contradict himself.
Besides, isn’t this system designed to hit missiles that are basically overhead or close by? They can’t travel thousands of miles to hit a target moving away from them, right? Wouldn’t Russian ICBMs be launched toward the US on a path that wouldn’t take them close to these sites?
That was my first thought when I read the story above - that the unions are counting on the Dems to win in 2008, and then the government will take the health insurance plan off the UAW’s hands.
You know, it could be just a couple of ships that go to the Persian Gulf or wherever, just to observe things.
Or, to provide confirmation of whatever “story” the Iranians use the next time they try something, so it isn’t just a he said/she said kind of situation.
I could see an Arab news network exaggerating what is headed that way. Hell, I could see Fox hyping the story.
