  • EVERYONE STOP BEING MEAN!: Georgia lobbed missiles at Russia, then Russia killed everyone, then the U.S. signed a deal with Poland for that missile defense thing just to piss off Russia, and now Russia is selling missiles to Iran and Venezuela just to piss off the U.S. WTF? Why can’t all of these people act like grown-ups, sheesh. [Times UK]

Reminds me of this funny story I heard once about … o wait, that story wasn’t funny either.

Texan Bulldoggette September 18, 2008 at 5:38 pm

And Hugo freaking hates us. Way to go Walnuts, pissing off Putin was a SMART move! It’s like you’ve already kicked the bucket & put Bible Spice (thanks to a fellow Wonketteer whom I can’t remember for that moniker) in charge….

Pooty-Poot! Quick! Look behind you! China is rising!

World War 3. Stock market crash. When is Skynet going online?

[re=101016]Texan Bulldoggette[/re]: Bible Spice!! Yeehaw!

McSenile will just sit them all down and tell ‘em to stop the bullshit. Yeah, that’ll fix it.

My Friends, starting new searches for freedom is all part of the market adjusting.

Vanity Smurf September 18, 2008 at 5:47 pm

[re=101004]cal[/re]: We have a good track record of victory in wars with Spain. Last time we got the Philipines as a coal station for the Pacific fleet. Walnutz! remembers well the first time he steamed into Subic Bay.

The war with Spain falls mainly on McCain.

Raytheon wanted to sell missiles to Iran and Venezuela, and they’re pissed. So they put in the word to Dubya: payback time.

Johnny Zhivago September 18, 2008 at 5:48 pm

If we’re going to war with Spain, Russia, Iran, Pakistan and France we’re going to need strong allies. That’s why John McCain is visting the Grand Sultan Mehmed VI next week in Constantinople to be sure the Ottoman Empire joins the League of Democracy.

[re=101030]Vanity Smurf[/re]: I don’t think one of her Man o’ Wars could stand up to one of our carrier battle groups.

Mr. Herpes September 18, 2008 at 5:50 pm

If Vlad the Impaler really wanted to fuck with us, he’d invite Moosegirl to a summit meeting in Vladivostok, so she can see what her house looks like from the Dark Empire.

Strictly for the Tardcore September 18, 2008 at 5:52 pm

Ha ha, Russia, those kidders. Pulling crap like this while we’ve got an economic dick up our ass, knowing we can’t do anything about it.

Vanity Smurf September 18, 2008 at 5:53 pm

[re=101031]cal[/re]: Finally somebody makes that line work.

TGY September 18, 2008 at 5:58 pm

Historically, Russian missiles are EPIC FAIL, so go right ahead, Vladi.

nietzscheprojectile September 18, 2008 at 6:03 pm

Look, give the Russkies a break. They haven’t gotten to play with the big toys in a while. Jeez.

njdon September 18, 2008 at 6:08 pm

missile payloads are empty vodka bottles.

anabellum September 18, 2008 at 6:08 pm

It is the 50′s all over again.. WE HAVE A MISSILE GAP!!

Damned that Barak and his hope-powered Delorean time machine… he squashed a butterfly on on one of his trips though time to trip up Palin and now everything is topsy-turvy! If he’d have brought back gas prices from the 1950′s!

lumpenprole September 18, 2008 at 6:17 pm

All this stuff could have a serious impact on Russo-Alaskan relations.

AngryBlakGuy September 18, 2008 at 6:41 pm

…and for John McCain’s next trick, he will talk S.Korea into invading N.Korea! Hooray for the apocalypse :-)

Son of a bitch. This kind of shit is how World Wars start.

Servo September 18, 2008 at 7:17 pm

If Russian missiles are in the same sad state as the rest of their military, I wouldn’t be too concerned.

Anyone see the Russian paper, Pravda, on Palin? The one where they call her a worthless bag of hair and a hysterical shrieking cow? No shit. Funniest. Column. Ever.

however main point: reader’s digest? no memory here.
