Bloviating Zeppelin: Credible Or Not?

Bloviating Zeppelin

(in-ep-toc'-ra-cy) - a system of government where the least capable to lead are elected by the least capable of producing, and where the members of society least likely to sustain themselves or succeed, are rewarded with goods and services paid for by the confiscated wealth of a diminishing number of producers.

Credible Or Not?

From the WorldNetDaily:

North Korea threatens U.S. with nuke missile;
Official says Pyongyang will fire weapon unless Washington acts to resolve standoff.

Communist North Korea has threatened to fire a nuclear-tipped missile unless the U.S. takes action to resolve its standoff with Pyongyang, according to the South Korean news agency Yonhap.

The unnamed North Korean official who issued the threat said the intent is to bring Washington to the negotiating table.

"We hope the situation will be resolved before an unfortunate incident of us firing a nuclear missile comes," the official said yesterday. "That depends on how the U.S. will act."

The South Korean agency previously reported the North Korean official said that Pyongyang was willing to return to the negotiating table and quit its nuclear program if the U.S. takes "corresponding measures."

"The nuclear test is an expression of our intention to face the United States across the negotiating table," official said. "What we want is security of the (North), including guaranteeing our system."

Did the North Koreans detonate an actual nuclear device or not?

Do they mean this or not?

Why does Nancy Pelosi openly denigrate a US missile shield system?

This is a ridiculous ploy by the administration. "we may never know..." We SHOULD know and had the Bush administration done things differently, it is possible we WOULD know. I think this is just a means to downplay the pie in their face for their base.

From what I was reading, the area where the test took place could have played a role in the readings. The type of rock, the size and angle of the tunnel and a host of other external factors all come into play.

Fact, we must assume that it is what is and respond on that basis and that basis alone. Hell, Israel has never confirmed that they have nuclear weapons - but everyone in the world assumes that they do have them.

Ah, James, perfect, just what I was looking for sir! You did the Logical Extension. We CANNOT afford to ASSUME it was NOT a nuclear detonation -- not if We (read: the World as well) want to assure our survival! Precisely!

I think Bush did assume it was if you listen to his last few speeches, however, it is the media and those who are testing the area to make sure and it seems as though just now they said they have determined that it was. So, we know now.

Have you ever thought that Bush probably knew when they developed the first one if they did it while he was in office? It is called classified intel. The stuff we don't see.
Putting partisan politics aside.. Can you imagine what they know that we don't?? I don't want to know to be honest, it would scare the crap out of Americans.

Could you imagine being told they were going to blow up 10 airplanes over the ATlantic and that they are going to try to stop it? It would freak everyone out.. Glad it was stopped.

I am sure there are things Bush knows that he can't disclose and is fighting like hell to not let happen to us. That is why I like him.
