@corpsman907 People in the 80's also laughed at the idea that China would become a world power. Time to stop laughing and pay attention to what is happening in the world.

I always laughed at people back in the 1980s who thought Russia could take out the US. Most people dont know that the Russians did not have the guidance technology back then to actually deliver an intercontinental ballistic missile. Gotta laugh at how people always believed everything they saw on the news about the big bad Soviets.

I remember seeing these launch tubes everywhere around Central Montana. My sister, and I, used to count as many as we could on our 45 mile drive from Lewistown, to Stanford, when we were kids. There was a bunch of them!

Coo!

Unfortunately, Obama has severely weakened our nuclear deterrent. While Russia & China rearm -- we have our pants down!
