"MAD" does not work if the other side thinks dying is a good idea and doesn't give a rat's ass about their own population.
If the ABL is in position to hit a missle in the boost phase, rupture of the fuel tank is pretty workable. If the radioactive wreckage falls back on the launch country, boo-hoo.
If the wreckage lands on another country, you just made a new enemy. Still, it beats having the warhead reach it's target.
Stuff like the old SDI and the ABL work best as deterrents. If they think the missile won't reach the target, maybe they won't launch. However, if they are INSANE, deterrents lose their punch.
A self righteous no-nothing piece of euro-trash talks out his ass and gets modded up to "insightfull".
Thank god we have the 2nd amendment to protect us, if we can find judges who can read.
I have about quit posting or even reading the comments here. It has gotten so predictable. Liberal bullshit, no matter how stupid, gets modded up. ANY other opinion gets modded down.
It is the whole liberal philosophy in a nutshell. "WE ARE RIGHT...so anybody who disagrees is STUPID". The funny thing is, the libtards attribute that behavior to conservatives (which you do see some of), but THEY are the real culprits.
I simply can't understand workaholic types. I mean, come on people, it's JUST A JOB. Don't get me wrong, my job is important to me. I make good money. I like the work (most of the time). But I DO NOT work overtime unless "the barns buring down". Overtime is for emergencies, not because some jackass made promises his ass can't keep.
People who let EVERTHING go to hell because of their job are just sad.
I didn't read an article in Slate, I came to this conclusion by observation.
Kids with autism (and asperger's is grouped in the autism family) have HUGE issues with stimulation. For a lot of them, about any stimulation is too much.
Autism has genentic components. However, fairly recently autism has spiked in the population. What can we attribute this too? Enviromental pollutants can and do cause gene problems.
Couple the pollutants (which may amplify the genetic problems) with a massive increase in stimulation and you MAY have at least some of the answer to the increase in autism.
I may have a touch of Asperger's (probably more than a few reading this do, too), one of my sons has it pretty bad. I have a nephew with bad autism. So I am around those inflicted.
Kids ARE over stimulated today. I think this (along with enviromental pollutants) is the main cause of the dramatic rise in autism, asperger syndrome and a host of other problems.
When I was growing up, we had two TV channels. Cartoons were on Saturday morning and a few after school. That was it.
Now, my kids have cable, computer with the net and half a dozen consoles. I work on limiting it, but it is tough.
I would imagine this sorry cocksucker will be dead soon.
There are guys in the world who will whack you if you screw up their lives.
And these are serious DOM types. You know, kinda-sorta unstable (and with violent tendencies) to begin with. And genius-boy decides to "push their buttons"? In public? With his contact info hanging out?
Do you live in Tennessee? Comcast got all TimeWarner contracts in Tennessee in some kind of swap. We are switching out soon.
Since I am yet to hear anything good about Comcast, Bellsouth DSL and DirecTV will probably have a new client soon. Probably, a LOT of new clients.
I have 7 televisons connected to expanded basic (analog) cable now. That will be a problem with DirecTV. On the other hand, I will probably save about $30 a month and get more channels.

..while you can, monkey-boy!
Yes, our custom Tie-Fighter may look like it's spinning out of control, but we'll be baaaaack! And if you thought the old model Death Star was cool...

"Stalinist" is the proper word to use here.
Later.
Jack never makes a hell of a lot of sense. I've seen him on TV practically drooling.
I think the poor guy really needs his meds adjusted.

TUCOWS is a corporation. Not a lot they can do to an individual, even the CEO. Ignoring a court order filed in the US probably wouldn't get them held.
Hell, the Air Force has a space plane now that can bomb anywhere on the planet in 45 minutes...oh, shit that's SECRET!
I'll need everbodies names that read this. Sorry, I have to kill you all now.
I think this bad boy would be WAY out in the desert. Nobody much around, generally good weather and lots of cheap solar energy.
Sorry, it didn't go over my head. I was ignoring the sarcasm to use the statement to help make my point.
Or was I? People with Asperger's are not supposed to be good at detecting sarcasm.

TV's HAVE been in homes for about 50 years.

I always prefer the "massive electromagnet in the door frame". As long as some asshole with an EMP device across the street doesn't screw things up...
Yeah, and they have FOUR of them.
They can, like, beat off FOREVER and not get carpal tunnel...

This should be fun to watch...
Well, the "Big Giant Head" himself says "later this month"...
We are aware of society's problems. We just don't care.
If we eliminate the other side of an issue, the issue is fixed.
WE ARE THE GOP. YOU WILL BE ASSIMILATED. (or eliminated)
Really?
When is BL coming back?
That's one reason the only shows I watch on SciFi are Stargates and Galactica.
Those are the best, for sure, but you forgot The Doctor.
"Dead Like Me" is nice. Not SciFi, but nice.
"Eureka" has potential. They have the TNG techno-babble down and it has a humorous ring to it.
Most of the rest is rubber-monster and wrasslin' crap
Who, little `ol me? Or the idiots with the mod points?
Not "first".
"Fist".
Up you ass.
About elbow deep.
(let's see, will this one be modded: Troll? Flamebait? Off-Topic? The suspense is KILLING ME!)
Oh, and pr0n, don't forget the pr0n!
(oh, and please mod this as "redundant", since we all know you have no fucking sense of humor)

Plus, I can take the dish camping...
Not all Americans. Must be a left coast thing.
Also, if you recall, they "cancelled" SG-1 at the end of season 7 (or 8).
This may be another try for sympathy and a ratings boost.
Hey, they run wrasslin' and the "Biggest Douche in the Universe". I wouldn't put anything past them.
Poor Ben Browder. Screwed by Sci-Fi again!
At least MGM is planning on continuing the series, somewhere else.
I guess Sci-Fi needs more space for shitty B monster movies, fantasty crap and "wrasslin'"...
