HUGE WTF moment today ...for my wife
Okay we are both still shaking our heads wondering how the heck U.S. military "mistakenly" fly six nukes over the country... than my wife checks out Raw story and finds links to these two stories:


Syria accused Israel of bombing its territory on Thursday and warned it could respond, but Israel Radio carried a denial there had been an air strike

AND

RAF Tornado jets were scrambled today to intercept eight Russian military aircraft which were approaching British airspace

Did the world leaders decide to have WW3 without telling us?

3. Don't forget the duct tape.
You just never know....

Seriously, if there IS WW3, we will all wake up to find it started while we were asleep -- and without warning. Will will not be consulted or considered, and we sure-as-hell will not be informed in advance. To this government (both Parties), we are nothing... until they need our vote.

Okay... 'nuff of that!

TC

4. Nah - you should have stopped before "they need our vote"
They didn't need it last time or the time before that.

2. The whole "mistake" with the nukes is mind boggleing.
It is impossible, yet that is the media coverage and reporting, etc. Nukes do not get checked out of storage by mistake, loaded onto a plane by mistake..and no one notices or questions the massive ooperation of checking them out and loading them up and flying them across country. If there was a mistake, it was that there was not enough follow up in keeping the mission from being caught by ground crew in Lousiana. It was a slip up alright, but it was not a mistake.
