This guy wants to be CINC of the greatest military that ever existed? No need to answer it’s rhetorical.

Obama gaffe #3674

Missile shield doesn’t target anything other than incoming missiles.

Up until recently, for 10 years I was part of the team that did the testing on the current missile defense system (the one based in Alaska by the way). You are 100% correct. Obama doesn't know what the hell he's talking about.

The SHIELD targeting Russia, eh? Gads, I would have thought that a Haaavaaad grad might have passed science 101, but guess that the Obamaloon didn’t want an “F” in his transcript.

Oops, forgot that the (poison) Ivy schools let the lib arts folks slip through without ever taking an intellectually demanding course.

Could this be true or is it made up? I would like to believe that 0bama isn’t that stupid.

Um, the missile shield DOES NOT TARGET ANY LAND TARGETS, it targets INCOMING MISSILES. Therefore IT CANNOT “TARGET RUSSIA,” you imbecilic MORON (directed at the Obamanation, not at the poster). Sheesh.

I think Obama is trying to appease Putin and let him know he will order the shield to be programed to ignore Russia's incoming missiles.

I mean Obama claims he is more computer savvy than Senator McCain, he is just showing off that he understands how to get Russia and Europe to like us again using computer technology.

Hahahahah

Even if they areed to this, a missle/defense shield with less than 360 degrees of coverage would be useless. Are the rogue nations going to agree to aim their missles at only the protected portion of the shield. And they say Palin is not ready?

I'll bet if you sent a copy of this to Charlie Gibson at ABC it would be on the screen in less than five minutes!

I guess notions about “offensive” and “defensive” systems just don’t register with Hussein.

Hint: a “defensive” system is aimed at blocking attacks directed at you by those using “offensive” systems whose purpose is to inflict death and destruction on you and your people. The “defensive” system is passive and only responds to an attack while the “offensive” system is aggressive and meant specifically for attack.

Just the sort of comment you would expect from someone with no military experience such as 0bama. BTW that’s a zero “0” not an oh “O” in his name; in recognition of his experience.

So is he saying that it won’t shoot down Russian missiles, as they are “friendly”? What an a$$ clown.

"Missile shield doesn’t target anything other than incoming missiles."

That is correct.

A "Missile Shield" system consists of intercept missiles, surveillance and target tracking radars and a command and control system. As long as the system has radar coverage for the sector that would detect incoming Russian missiles at ranges that would allow an intercept then the system will defend against a Russian attack.

But this is only true if McCain becomes president. With Obama there would presumably be some technical limitation placed on the system that would protect the Russians from having to worry about any Polish defense if they decided to launch nuclear weapons at Poland. Is this stupidity or what? Obama is an idiot.
