It takes 10-15 years to develop new jets. Even non military “simple” passenger jets.

Dunno. I voted for Obama and sometimes I wonder wtf he's doing so many snl tv show type of appearances.

Oh come on. This headline is just chickbait.

Well, MAD is not short for MADMSO, or Mutually Assured Destruction of Military Sites Only.

I’m sorry, what did you think Mutually Assured Destruction meant? That was the whole point. Nuclear deterrence is all about the idea that if you attack, you won’t have a country left, even if you “win”.

Cmon man, there are lots of welfare checks that need be written, and it turns out all that ‘free’ healthcare actually does cost something. Who knew?

Slightly off topic, but is there a sport that looks better in slow motion than American football?

Who says it’s the same? The theme may be the same but it’s not the exact same is it? With that logic, wasn’t Star Wars basically the same? We saw the Deathstar blow up twice did we not? And what reason is there to shit on it in the first place? Just don’t watch it. No, the reason people are shitting on it is exactly…

Will Smith had a fit because he wasn’t the main character and his son who can’t act wasn’t allowed a part. Will Smith has become a douche and if he is going to throw a fit then the movie is better of without him.

I expected it to be amazing and it was. I’ve waited 20 years for this and it looks awesome! Of course there’s going to be people who shit on it because no ones using a lightsaber and there are no X-Wings.

How do you think we get to that post-scarcity utopia? Trickle down economics and science developed out of military spending on things like Strategic Defense Initiative, of course!

Star Trek presents better living through technology. Economics in the traditional sense only exists because of scarcity, Star Trek just gives a glimpse of what things might be like if there was an abundance of just about everything.

Maybe the Civil War should give the U.S. an asterisk, since the existing government won and retained power. Still, I’d say despite some lingering cultural issues we’ve largely overcome that. It’s been 150 years and we haven’t been close to another shooting war over domestic issues.

Even if it is, the USSR wasn’t formed until 1917.

Watching this video, it makes me even more annoyed when people chide the U.S. as being a “young nation” that’s too arrogant to have a widened voice in world political discussions.

First time a Rams receiver has been successfully targeted since Marc Bulger was under center.

Between Russia and ISIS, it’s hard to see who is the biggest geopolitical troll at the moment.

It was only a matter of time before something like this happened because of Russia’s “I’m not touching you” policy.

Good to see that Turkey doesn’t have any inhibitions when it comes to defending its airspace. I suspect that most countries, when confronted with a Russian jet, would just let it slide for fear of starting something.
