Heard of how the Russians tested a submarine-based Bulava (Mace) missile missle off the cost of Norway during Obama’s trip to pick up his Nobel Appease Prize?

The Bulava ballistic missle has a range of 5,000 miles with a trajectory that thrusts it high into the atmosphere, which explains the pretty blue spirals trailing in the sky. This guy was propelled so far up, crystaline saphires in the form of aluminum oxide, a solid propellant in the missle, “caught” sunlight far up in the atmosphere .. giving us that beautiful blue show at night.

“Solar fluorescence,” they call it.

Russia’s celebration of Obama’s Nobel Peace Prize.

This reminds me of North Korea’s chest-thumping in March, followed by actual missle launches in April, May, a proposed launch in June , then a grande finale on the 4th of July .

I don’t remember this many of the world’s nations breaking out this many fireworks in any one year during Bush’s presidency, do you?

Regardless — what a thoughtful commemoration of Obama’s NPP.

In appreciation of standing down on missle defense, Russia amps up committing useless missles into the depths of the ocean.

Ha.

All I know is that START II expired on December 5, Obama, Hillary and that batch of bumbling bozos — the same fools who fumbled, flopped and finally finagled figuring out what to do about Afghanistan – are rushing to try to complete something by the end of December.

Meanwhile, everyone will “act as if the treaty were in force until they sign a new one.”

Where are our big sticks?
