gAVOLT: You must be correct, just as the US controls the realms of time too.
Stop being such a paranoid idiot.
Hope all you Russian, Chinese, Indian, Pakistanian and 3rd world wanna-be's got the message here. "DON'T MESS WITH THE U.S". http://www.snotr.com/images/smilies/glasses.gif

Well actually Repeter, right about now Russia is the only country that can say STFU to the USA and the USA actually does it. Good thing they don't show these instances on US tv so they can keep you empty heads thinking that way.

Good thing the Government can ignore any law they find inconvenient.

WHY ARE THESE SATELLITES ALWAYS HAVING PROBLEMS!! WHAT GOES UP (MUST COST BILLIONS TO COME DOWN!)
So most of don't find it interesting that we shot down a satellite. While the military had back up plans if this did not succeed, the point is that it did. Those who found it boring have no understanding. First, the hydrozine fuel would have been a toxic disaster if some of it remained intact in this bus sized tank. Second, it was a direct hit from a ship at sea, 154 miles into space; No star wars, no Steven Spielburg, no special effects. Ergo I assure you, the Russians do not think this boring or funny in the least.
Ok...
- They can hit the wrong targets in Iraq - civilian
- They can hit the wrong targets in Iraq - UK soldiers - friendly fire it isn't.
- They can shoot down airliners with passengers in them.
- They can build satellites that dont work. - and they can shoot down their duff satellites from a long way off.
Of course we only have their word for it that it was the right one, and you wouldnt have seen footage of a miss - now would you.
Oh yes and they deny that global warming is an issue....
Now tell me again why I should trust these people ! I would rather trust the Russians.

Those who hate the USA are either ashamed that they live in countries that must rely on us to save them when they are being assfucked by the hitlers of the world, or from CUNTries that just dont matter. I have been all over the world and its easy to see that while Nobody is ever sneaking OUT of this great country, a ton of cocksukers die every year trying to sneak in. Bottyom line for the Eurotrash pricks.... they hate us because they are not us. Whne the shit hits the fan, like it always does..... they will bend over for the invaders and pray for the United States Warrior to recue them. God Bless the United States. Oorah!

Not only does the US think they own the world, now they just desided that space is theirs too. Now with the poles melting they want this area too for digging up more oil and gass because they oil they planned to rip from Iraq etc didn't work out that well.
With blowing this satellite its just ANOTHER threat to the rest of the world that they rule space and can blow up any satellite that's in their way.
When will they learn ??????? sigh ..

Big effing deal. How about you make a car engine that doesn't foul the atmosphere, then I'll be impressed.
