We'll maybe have to wait a couple of years for that then. -
Some news today: A "high-altitude object" was shot down over Alaska earlier on Friday, the White House has said. https://www.bbc.com/news/world-us-canada-64605447

I've tried to explain but there is no point is there? You can turn the bright light off now.
-
So there have been no improvements in defence technology after all?
-
Like your penchant for hair-splitting?
-
All with no proof of anything, either now or previously.

The lack of comprehension ability seems to be all yours. Trump people say that there were no reports of balloons during their tenure, i.e. at that time. Since the recent fiasco, the Biden admin has suddenly claimed a that new capability to identify new AND past balloon visits now exists. No proof of that yet but if true then fine. In any event, it seems that this magic technology was not available to the Trump people during their time.

The Book of Qualifiers. Part Two. Bye.

Lame excuses must entrance you. Dream on.

Topic is Chinese balloons I thought.
-
Better than that BS from the Pentagon.
-
It is the job of the military to detect balloons and other possible threats and then notify the President and his staff. If the military don't detect them then there is nothing reported and that is in line with the responses from senior ex Trump officials so far.
-
Like I said, sarcasm. I think Bolton was spot on with everything he said.
-
Weak reasoning. They seem to be more concerned the welfare of the balloon than the American people. Bless.
-
I think VV may have included a wee bit of sarcasm in his comment.
-
Connery was a hard act to follow in that role. Moore was different but I thought he was great, especially as The Saint before that.
-
Yes, at that altitude. You add in qualifiers to suit yourself. But balloons were "snagged" using the old method at lower altitudes and at slower speeds. Gingrich is living in the past and should have been more careful with what he said.

M61 Vulcan Gatling-style rotary cannon - 20mm - 6,000 rounds per minute. Only 480 rounds so all gone in less than 5 seconds.
-
Well effectively that's what I said. They used to do it but not anymore.
-
I think all that happens in most organizations and I could say the same about several of Biden's appointees. However, the brass hats are senior military (career) officers who have far more experience in their own fields than most civilian White House staffers, who drift in and out of different appointments.
-
Newt's quoted words here are actually correct, because he uses the past tense. The Skyhook and Fulton recovery systems were used by the US until 1996. Maybe they kept a set of kit in the museum, Just for posterity of course.
-
I think it was noticed but perhaps the plan was to keep this quiet??
-
Bill, I think that you of all would recognize the term "brass hats". The only one close to that club on your list was ex General Flynn, who was forced to resign for allegedly misleading Pence about his conversations with the Russian envoy.
