Just In Case…

Who ever thought we’d be needing these again: Nuclear War Survival Skills. Fun for the whole family!

This chapter in particular brings back childhood memories. If the SLBMs don’t get you, the ICBMs will get you a few minutes later — and if you survive those, well, watch out for the bombers, which will arrive just about the time you think it’s safe to poke your head out of the basement bunker.

Ahh, the good old Eighties…makes me want to dust off those old Betamax copies of The Day After and Testament.

Oh, Great

I guess this means Foleymas is over. Unless the Dems have something truly awful still hiding in their October Surprise bag, NK is going to be the dominant issue from now through the election. Which on the one hand is good, because it’s a serious issue for a change, but on the other hand it’s bad because, well, it’s a serious issue…NK now has nukes, and if they are actually weaponized, they can proliferate them at will.

I wouldn’t be at all surprised if Iran now followed suit (whether or not it would be an indigenously-produced device or not is beside the point.)

(Not to be flippant, but I wonder how long it will be before the moonbats start barking about how a) the US pushed NK into this demonstration with its provocative military posture and threats and sanctions and the like, and b) Rove and Bush must have coordinated the test to take Foley’s “Masturgate” scandal off the front pages. Or both at the same time…somehow.)
