Its either George Bushs fault or global warming or obesity You're way off base, buddy. MSNBC has already identified the real culprits behind this fiasco: Palin and the Tea Party.

Sorry guys, I want photos of the Polish airship that rammed all those high rise buildings...and lived to tell about it!
LOL!

Big Big Bigtime cover up...again.
There were numerous reports of unknown lights in the sky around Akron last night. There were several crafts traveling at an unbelievable rate of speed and one of them is said to have crashed.
Yeah,...a balloon....sure it is. And all those flights last night to and from Akron to Wright Pat were ‘just routine’ right? And the bodies that were recovered are just dummies...right?

From the pics, it looks like they used the old Goodyear Zeppelin shed in Akron. My dad worked there in the early ‘30s. Think that they built the Akron and the Macon there!

Sheesh.
The United States borrows around $150M an hour. Almost all of it is squandered on garbage like this, and worse (entitlement spending).

“I read about the Polish terrorists who hi-jacked a blimp outside of New York City and have so far rammed 25 high rise buildings!”
Hey ... I’m Polish and was offended by this. It was 42, not a mere 25!

How does an airship crash? I thought they floated.
They float until they come down. Then they softly crash.

Lockheed-Martin? Humph. Same people that can’t get the F-35 done either on time or on budget or to specifications? Same people that built the WAAAAAY over budget F-22 that we can’t afford but only a few of? Same people who built the F-22 that is now grounded because the pilots are being poisoned by something in the life support system air?
Same ones?
Maybe they aren’t a very good defense contractor or just stick to building C-130s.
Looks like their glory days of building things like SR-71, U-2 and such are behind them.
