Who needs missile defense when you have a shyhook jump shot?Blame Canada and their 24 percent increase in Greenhouse gas emissions for global warming. Stick that in your Kyoto Protocol and smoke it!You can say anything you want at a Pentagon press briefing on Friday afternoon and no one gives a ripshit.Terrorists like to play volleyball.Something is happening in India.Missile defense wasn’t a COMPLETE waste of $92 billion.Buying oil futures for 2030 might be a good idea.119,247 veterans of operations in Iraq and Afghanistan have sought VA healthcare.
