2. I envision the scene from the Dead Zone, just before the launch.

A maniac in charge...the launch...then pronounces it to be his destiny.

4. Prayers for everyone on the West Coast.

I know that's akin to "thoughts and prayers", but it's all I can do right now.

7. I'm not sure if anyone has pointed this out already on DU

But if NK wants to nuke the U.S and barely has the range to reach the west coast, what does Moron loose as Washington, Oregon, California and Hawaii have all gone Democratic in the last five presidential elections! Sure, wipe out some democrats. But don't mess with Alaska though!!

5. Something has to give.

They are steadily marching us into this. Do none of them realize there are no do-overs with a nuke?

12. Sad to say we are on that path.

I don't see where they are normalizing this. The quote is from Mattis. Donnie, quoted before his Generals saying this is "The Calm Before the Storm." The president wants this.

17. Quoting Mattis without saying this is frickin' nuts is normalizing it

In fact, it's a complete abandonment of the responsibility a news outlet has. I'm uninterested in any mewling about "objectivity" when we're talking about a course of events whose easily foreseeable end result is the extermination of millions and a wholesale poisoning of the planet.

 :whatever:

20. Stop attacking the messanger...me.

Get some context on what CNN said about Mattis before you talk about normalization by the media. I never saw the report on what they said, I had left the room. Please give me some context to what they said since you obviously saw it to speak in detail. I hate them for giving us Trump and YES they normalized him then. I will never forgive them or those that voted for trump and third party...because it was obvious then...anyone was better than Hillary....wrong!

I don't see a down side except for Conservatis there.

Mole?? or real noob?
Then-Chief Justice John Marshall observed, “Between a balanced republic and a democracy, the difference is like that between order and chaos.”

John Adams warned in a letter, “Remember democracy never lasts long. It soon wastes, exhausts, and murders itself. There never was a democracy yet, that did not commit suicide.”

Ds, Libs, and their MSM played the saber-rattling loose cannon shtick on Reagan. It didn't work, and we're still here (the USSR, not so much). But this does prove that Libs & Progs practice the recycling they preach (easier than coming up with new ideas, I suppose).

For the trolling DUmmies.  I have a little saying for you.

Si vis pacem para bellum

I know your panties are probably in a wad now, but you will be ok.  Just go to your safe place and whimper yourself to sleep. 
In battle you have to show no mercy for mercy comes after the war when you still have the freedom to ask for it.

"Montani Semper Liberi"

Pray as if God will take care of all; act as if all is up to you.
