Thank God for Reagan's Star Wars

[CrusaderFrank]

Reagan defeated the Soviets?

How come Russia still has about 5000 missiles pointed at us?

It hurts that Reagan collapsed the Democrat home team -- the Soviet Empire. The people who actually had to live under it East Germans, Poles, Czechs, are happy and grateful to Reagan, they laugh at your naivety, your stupidity, your gullibility. You think the USSR was so much fun you can't wait to duplicate it here.

yes without conservative warriors like Reagan the Soviet way would have been the only way!! It makes perfect sense that our liberals spied for Stallin and gave him the bomb.

Isn't it interesting Frank that in popular culture liberals dominate, but when they come to places that feature debate they look dumber than stone! They are constantly blindsided here by the brainwashing they get from the popular culture.

too stupid!! Star Wars was a general term liberals used to mock the idea of missile defense systems! Today we all owe our lives to missile defense as Israel just demonstrated. Why not just make liberals illegal? Their idea of defense was to give Stalin the atomic bomb!!

No, the reason the term "Star Wars" was used was-

1) The Orginal Trilogy of films was popular at the time.

and

2) Reagan attempted to get around the very sensible ABM treaty Nixon had concluded with the USSR by suggesting the weapons be deployed in space. Forgetting the fact the technology to do so doesn't exist today and didn't exist in 1984 when he proposed the idea.

 

[hoosier88]

Liberals didn't give Stalin the a-bomb. That was J. E. Hoover,

if the idiot liberal has evidence of this I will pay him $10,000. Bet or run away with you liberal tail between your legs!!

Charming as you are:

from Manhattan Project - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Soviet spies
Main article: Atomic spies @ 8.2
"The prospect of sabotage was always present, and sometimes suspected when there were equipment failures. While there were some problems believed to be the result of careless or disgruntled employees, there were no confirmed instances of Axis-instigated sabotage.[229] However, on 10 March 1945, a Japanese fire balloon struck a power line, and the resulting power surge caused the three reactors at Hanford to be temporarily shut down.[230] With so many people involved, security was a difficult task. A special Counter Intelligence Corps detachment was formed to handle the project's security issues.[231] By 1943, it was clear that the Soviet Union was attempting to penetrate the project. Lieutenant Colonel Boris T. Pash , the head of the Counter Intelligence Branch of the Western Defense Command , investigated suspected Soviet espionage at the Radiation Laboratory in Berkeley. Oppenheimer informed Pash that he had been approached by a fellow professor at Berkeley, Haakon Chevalier , about passing information to the Soviet Union.[232]

"The most successful Soviet spy was Klaus Fuchs , a member of the British Mission who played an important part at Los Alamos.[233] The 1950 revelation of Fuchs' espionage activities damaged the United States' nuclear cooperation with Britain and Canada.[234] Subsequently, other instances of espionage were uncovered, leading to the arrest of Harry Gold , David Greenglass and Ethel and Julius Rosenberg .[235] Other spies like George Koval and Theodore Hall remained unknown for decades.[236] The value of the espionage is difficult to quantify, as the principal constraint on the Soviet atomic bomb project was a shortage of uranium ore. The consensus is that espionage saved the Soviets one or two years of effort.[237]"

Or you can read any of Richard Rhodes' excellent books on the development of the atomic bomb.

Israel needs it to defend itself, our Navy ships need it to defend themselves, and now we need it to defend ourselves against Iran and North Korea, the Axis of Evil!

In time liberals always look very very foolish!!

You really are a partisan hack and one with no integrity. Some of us were alive when Reagan was not only POTUS but Governor of California. In fact I was at the University when he was elected Governor in 1966. You may believe he was the Second Coming of Christ, those of us with perspective know Reagan was little more than a demagogue with an actors ability to influence the uninformed.

I was alive and voted for Reagan and he was the man. He made us proud to me Americans. There was never any doubt the country he loved. Very unlike what we have in the WH today. Reagan wasn't perfect but he was a leader, he inspired people and what more could we want from a president?

Obviously you want to be derided and put down for being American.

What more could we want from a President? For starters, someone who wouldn't trade arms for hostages, someone who wouldn't triple the national debt, someone who wouldn't grant amnesty to illegal aliens, and someone who wasn't suffering from dementia.

We have had various missile defenses since the 1950's. I was in the Navy in the 1970's and we had the BPDMS and CIWS systems for missile defense. "Star Wars" was supposed to be a space based missile defense system and isn't defending anyone from anything, except maybe protecting defense contractors from losing profits.

too stupid as if thats as important as winning the cold war, freeing 2 billion people, and starting the "Great economic Moderation"!

The U.S. could have already had those 14 more interceptors in place, along with another 10 in Europe next year. The Bush administration deployed the first ground-based interceptor (GBI) in 2004, and had planned to deploy a total of 54. In 2009, Obama pulled the plug on that plan, and cut GBI deployment to just 30.

President Obama also mothballed or killed several other missile defense development programs. This included a scale-back of the Airborne Laser program to enable enemy missile interceptions during their early launch phase, along with the elimination of the Multiple Kill Vehicle and Kinetic Energy Interceptor which uses small warheads on a single rocket to handle decoys and offer a better chance of success. Obama’s 2010 defense budget cut $1.4 billion from the Missile Defense Agency.

A comparison of 2010 and 2013 budgets submitted by the Energy Department and National Security Agency indicates that 5-year budgets for nuclear and missile program modernization has been cut by $4.4 billion, the same amount the president had agreed to add to secure Senate support for his New Start treaty with Russia. This is ocourring as Russia prepares to field a new generation of intercontinental ballistic missiles, including one type that can carry up to 15 warheads.

President Obama had also promised to build a modern Chemical and Metallurgy Research Replacement facility for handling plutonium which was included in the Treaty Resolution of Ratification and presented in his message to the Senate upon entry of the treaty into force. Yet that facility, which is essential for modernization to extend the life of aging ballistic nuclear warheads, has now been delayed for at least five years, and some believe, permanently

too bad they are not developed to the point where Iran and North Korea present no threat. Did liberals prevent us from acheiving Reagans goal in time??

Well at this point we ought to devote all our money to solving the Axis of evil problem on earth before we all get nuked by folks who have higher purposes and could care less.

Ya know when I posted that on another post even the kids, knew it was star wars and came from Reagen. Not sure why the posters on this thread want to spin it and say star wars was a failure. they sure do look dumb.... lol. Every one watched star wars....

the liberal idea of defense was to give Stalin the atomic bomb. It is similar to Obama disarming at first to show everyone we were no longer the aggressor imperialists as liberals and his communist father always believed.

Now that it was treated with contempt by all the world we are back to Reagan's Star Wars. If 2 million South Koreans get killed the blood will be on Barry's hands. Can anyone see Barry making the North Koreans back down?

yes he had to be dragged kicking and screaming into Libya, but he did do it. I guess the Nobel was for all the peace his new attitude would create. He has said on several occasions that Iran will not be allowed to have nuclear weapons. I have no idea how that will work out but am sure he'd be in a better position if we had gone all out with defense programs like the F-22 and bunker buster bombs.
