I don't think stealth bombers do that.

Forget it, he's rolling.

We are a fractured country and everyone knows it. The world is shaking their heads and laughing at the fact that enough people in this country think that Obama would be and effective leader. It shows our weakness.

I saw him in the stands at the Olympics cheering while innocents expecting his protection were murdered.

He is no difference than the REST of us...

The B-2 is a sub-sonic bomber. Can’t fly faster than sound, ergo, no sonic boom.

Eh... guess a regular BOOM! would have to suffice!

Reagan sent an SR-71 through Nicaraugua at treetop level!

Why?

It's a HIGH-altitude RECONNAISSANCE plane!

Well Bush could always Admonish the Russians. If that doesn’t work, next could be the dreaded Censure.

Reminds me of the Third Rock from the Sun episode where Dick’s students report him to the college for his verbal abuse of his students.

Very good.

Are you putting your hat in the ring for Secretary of State?

All you need to do is change #9 from a few stealth bombers to a formation of B-1’s at low level and you’re all set.

I suppose a formation of B-52’s at high level prompts the same response.

Of course we can’t do any of those things because our precious military is all tied up in Iraq, stuck in a quagmire of defeat and humiliation.

Perhaps Mrs. Clinton will allow Mr. McCain to use her 3 am commercial for himself, splicing in relevant information about Georgia.

The phone rings at the McCain household, Mr. McCain answers, we get a more presidential response from him than we did from our sitting president.

The phone rings at the Obama vacation retreat, answering machine picks up and says that Barry will be out of the office till Monday. If you have an emergency, here’s the number for the UN.

McCain might end up being better than Dubya.

Not that that's saying a lot.

I’m just getting started. George did virtually NOTHING!!!

In all fairness, nothing that we saw.

I’ll accept further suggestions from the assembled FReepers, and support virtually anything short of our boots on the ground shooting at Russians.

I like all your suggestions. I would that the President announce extending the life cycle of the space shuttle, while fast tracking a replacement. Then announce that the Soviet (er, Russian) cosmonauts will be leaving the space station at the first opportunity (preferably through an open airlock without space suits).

For the “Shock and Awe”. The thing was going like Mach 3 or something. It broke windows from one end of the country to the other. The Sandis never saw it coming and couldn’t figure out what the heck had happened until it was gone. It embarassed the hell out of the Sandis and let them know they could be as beligerent as they wanted to but that no matter what they did we could swat them down like a fly if we wanted to.
