This came in from Dewey Clarridge, the last great American spy master:

Homer Hickam made an interesting comment on FOX. In case you don’t know who he is, Homer was a poor West Virginia miner’s son, who worked his way up to being a scientist for NASA. He wrote a book called “Rocket Boy” which was later made into a great movie called “October Sky”. This morning he was interviewed and said this, about the one-shot shoot-down of the crippled satellite ——————————————————- ” If this Country’s head was on straight they would be holding a ticker tape parade for the crew of the cruiser, USS Lake Erie”… —————————————————— This one rocket firing boosted our national defense 100-fold. North Korea, Iran, China, Russia, all know now that we have a safety net that can accurately stop their incoming missiles even if they are out of the earth’s atmosphere. Of course, that was the plan all along. And it was a dandy plan. I just hope that the next person in the White House doesn’t scrap the system and begin baking cookies for the enemy. Hilly or Obama will do just that, and that makes me a little nervous. At any rate, kudos to the officers and crew of the USS Lake Erie. WELL DONE BLUE JACKETS !!
