NORAD BOMBS PALIN CLAIM

[CatWoman]

don't recall seeing this posted:

Whenever Russia near US airspace, Sarah Palin's phone does not ring, despite her claims.

NORAD has slammed GOP VP Candidate Sarah Palin's claim to CBS' Katie Couric that she has command authority over US space guardians.

Spokesman for the North American Aerospace Defense Command, Air Force Maj. Allen Herritage told the NY Daily News. "She doesn't have any role in that process."

"The authority to launch and respond to a Russian incursion lies with the Alaska NORAD Region commander" solely.

Moscow's bombers have skirted Alaskan airspace 20 times but have not violated it during Palin's tenure.

And when interceptors scramble from Elmendorf Air Force Base in Anchorage, Sarah Palin is not speed-dialed.

"The commander does not call the governor," Major Herritage clarified.

2. Do you really expect anything other than kisses and kid gloves?

I will be extremely surprised -- as in call an ambulance, I'm having a stroke brought on my massive shock -- if any of Palin's lies, untruths, "misstatements" or "stop picking on me!" comments get even a vague acknolwedgement, much less are addressed head-on. The media simply will not allow it.

11. A stupid, useless and easily debunked lie

It's like they either (1) don't give a flying monkey fuck about how stupid they look; or (b) don't think anyone is checking up on them.

[Enthusiast]

12. But it's only a little lie.

The kind that don't count because Jesus will forgive us. :sarcasm:

3. Maybe they call The First Dude?

[Mabus]

7. No, they let the adults handle it

Besides, she's kept pretty busy covering up her own shit to actually do her job as governor.

[goforit]

5. It would be scarey to know she would have any command at all.

[TheWraith]

8. Well, fucking DUH.

Primary command authority for interception ops ALWAYS lies with the US military and the North American Aerospace Defense Command.

9. Important for NORAD to say so

We don't want Putin thinking he only has to deal with Palin in order to rear his head and invade Alaska-- it would be a cake-walk.

10. Another stupid lie. Not surprising. K&R

[Subdivisions]

13. There is something seriously fucked up with the world when

The National Enquired is a more credible source than anything on teevee or radio or newspaper. Jees!

[leeroysphitz]
