The Hillary email "GOP created story" does have a scandal in it.

[Jackie Wilson Said]

Rachel talked about it last night.

But the anti Hillary people dont care about what really matters, do they.

Anyway, what really matters is how stupidly things are still done.

8 inch floppy disks


ugh

[scscholar]

1. Unreliable control systems for nuclear weapons...

is a much bigger story, but of course the media is ignoring it because it doesn't sell as well.

[Jackie Wilson Said]

4. The GOP has sent people out to message boards to spread the propaganda

about this, but the real story is scary, isnt it.

[spin]

5. The control systems may be outdated but that doesn't mean ...

they are unreliable. Replacing such systems with more modern systems might actually cause more problems than the older systems that have been thoughly tested.

The government most likely has warehouses filled with spare parts to repair the systems. The biggest problem is to find technicians to do the work on such old equipment.

It's somewhat like the old rotary dial telephones. If all you want to do is call someone and talk to them they still work fine. They even work during a power outage.

2. The GOP didn't create the story. Hillary did.

It was her decisions that led to this mess. If it weren't for Blumenthal's e-mail and the JD Lawsuit (which was filed based on the Blumenthal e-mail) no one would have known about it.

If the missiles fail to fire, when needed, we can blame the floppy disks.....or we can spend a couple trillion upgrading the system

3. this is news...The State Dept. IG is a republicant?

emails aren't sent on floppy discs...they happen thru the interwebs, you know the system of tubes....
