U.S. Ready for North Korean Missile: Thanks To Whom?

U.S. 'ready' for N. Korean missile - Washington Times

If, as often threatened, North Korea fires a missile at Hawaii, the current administration insists that they're ready for it. No thanks to Democrats.

U.S. missile defenses are prepared to try to knock down the last stage of a Taepodong-2 missile that North Korea is expected soon to launch if sensors detect the weapon threatens U.S. territory, the commander of the U.S. Northern Command told The Washington Times.

"The nation has a very, very credible ballistic-missile defense capability. Our ground-based interceptors in Alaska and California, I'm very comfortable, give me a capability that if we really are threatened by a long-range ICBM that I've got high confidence that I could interdict that flight before it caused huge damage to any U.S. territory," said Air Force Gen. Victor E. "Gene" Renuart, Northcom commander.


Say thank you to Ronald Reagan, George H.W. Bush, and George Bush. You can be certain that no Democrats will.
