What an idiot. Now he is saying he was ready to go on nuclear alert.

http://www.bbc.com/news/world-europe-31899680

That lacks credibility.

Isn't that a non-statement? Doesn't he always have to be ready to put the nuke forces on alert? Isn't that just part of his day-to-day job as president?

Hmmm. Probably the flu. Clearly not lead poisoning.
All that is gold does not glitter,
Not all those who wander are lost;
The old that is strong does not wither,
Deep roots are not reached by the frost.

and yet our president still does nothing about this yearly invasion of Canadistanians!
Jarhead - Yeah. You're probably right.

Gus - I use sweatpants with flannel shorts to soak up my crotch sweat.

Banzai Cat - There is no "partial credit" in grammar. Like anal sex. It's either in, or it's not.

Mirth - We learned long ago that they key isn't to outrun Star, it's to outrun Gus.

Martok - I don't know if it's possible to have an "anti-boner"...but I now have one.

Gus - Celery is vile and has no reason to exist. Like underwear on Star.

I wonder who would have the most partisans?  If we allied with the Brits, we could take central Florida, and maybe the Gulf Coast from Naples north.  We might lose everything north of Gainesville to Georgia.  Certainly everything east of the Everglades, up to Jupiter (save from any help from Burt Reynold's ghost, and yeah, I know that he's still alive) we'd lose to the Cubans.
Any time is a good time for pie.

WOLVERINES! WOLVERINES!

Meanwhile back to Putin -- who exactly was he supposed to be considering a nuclear alert over? Pakistan? North Korea??

That's certainly for internal consumption. He's appealing to the principle that once you demonstrate to your own people there's nothing too ridiculously tyrannical to be untrue, anything you charge your opponents with, directly or by innuendo, sounds plausible.

You have to understand how the Russians think about their nuclear arsenal. We view ours as a necessary evil. It's more complicated with them. They're weak, and nukes are the one thing that can force the rest of the world to pay attention to their strategic priorities, which include keeping western and Islamic armies as far from their heartland as possible (an imperative with some pretty compelling historical basis). It's a source of national pride.
