Chinese spy balloon hovering over Montana

[lawgator1]

It’s not the fabric to worry too much about. It’s the multi-ton payload attached. It’s path would be governed by physics and could be determined by…math.

Really?

The missile disperses it in some unpredictable fashion and its tethered to fabric 12 miles up.

Look, make a political argument if you'd like but don't be offer moronic logic to do it.

I watch those stupid ass movies about once a year.

My wife gets mad at me bc I always stop, for at least a moment or two, when ever I come across airplane, naked gun, or blazing saddles on tv. Have to watch at least for a bit. She says I giggle like a moron when they are on.

When was Biden told of it?

By your logic he should have shot it down when it was being manufactured.

He is the President correct? What’s our military budget again? No, by my logic it should have been shot down when it reached our airspace.

Well, it's a fabric of some kind falling from 12 miles up. Hmmmm.... we can't peg it right, with certainty ?

This word "math." I don't think it means what you think it means.

Geez us you can’t be this dumb on purpose . How do you think we know where anything is going to land falling at a certain speed , knowing wind speed , using timing to bring it all together to pin point an area where it will land ? We were doing this back in the 60s with much bigger objects , much more danger involved , with much steeper speeds and velocity . Russia did it before us . Some of you have never zeroed in a rifle scope and shows . I bet u think you just pull the trigger and it goes boom don’t you ?

Canada has no balls and we just spent billions chasing a ballon .

A subsequent report from Bloomberg found that the president was made aware of the balloon, and its dangerous threat, days earlier on January 28.

A week ago. Oh my!

You don’t necessarily need to blow it up to make it fall from the sky. And isn’t Alaska the least densely populated state in the country?

Anyway, I haven’t made any kind of political argument on this topic. I’ve asked some questions because of things I find a little odd.

Last, I wouldn’t call other people’s logic moronic after you fretted about the fabric falling from the sky.

There’s an even bigger problem if this wasn’t in his briefing days before it hit US airspace. Are you suggesting that Biden is not being briefed on potential threats to national security?

Liberals and PETA still mad about Exxon.

GOP this morning: It should be shot down right away! Let the military do its job!

Biden, 4 days ago to the military: Shoot it down as soon as you can.

GOP tonight: Biden should have MADE the military do it sooner!


It's just painful to watch you contort yourselves to find a way to bash him for this.

Buck stops with the man at the top. Or at least it did it Trumann‘s day. But then again, that is back when the Democrats were still pro American

Liberal reporting calling out the President for not saying anything until it went viral.

Of course he was. It’s just fun to watch LG squirm as he looks to protect Lord Big Guy.

If Biden had been around in 1944…..
No Hans, don’t shoot down the bomber….it might hit someone on the ground!!!!!

Does not answer the question.

Yes it does. Bloombergs words not mine. A liberal leaning publication. Spin it

 

[hog88]

It’s an old movie.
Not sure if many would get the reference

Its a cinematic masterpiece.

Sure it does….Biden had ample time to shoot down the thing before it got anywhere near any populated area. If you read the news stories, the Administration chose to keep the event quiet in fear that it might derail Blinken‘s trip to China. Their plan was honestly to hope no one noticed. They were more concerned about not causing ripples with Beijing than they were about the security of our military installations. They never would have told us if some guy in Montana hadn’t seen it and posted the first video. Seriously, read the reports. January 28!!!!!
This is impeachable IMHO. Crass cowardice and dereliction of duty.
The head of the Homeland Security Committee in the House heard about it in the news for crying out loud. The White House hadn’t even called Congress to let them know. I don’t usually curse, but there are some pretty strong words going through my mind right about now.

Ever been to Alaska, or Idaho, or Montana? Those are very sparsely populated states. It could have been shot down there with an extremely minute chance of it getting anywhere near a living person.
