Also love the one where the Chief explains how the tribe got there name by getting lost and blurting, "Where the heck are we????"

I don't understand what all the brouhaha is over this freakin' balloon? To me - it's a lot of uproar over absolutely nothing.

If it's actually spying who gives a rat's ass.
If it's gathering information so what? It's not like it's gathering any information they don't already get from their spy satellites & I seriously doubt it actually is. If you're going to send something over another country to spy you don't send a huge, white, slow moving balloon that can be seen with the naked eye.
:rolleyes:

I believe the Chinese that it's a weather balloon that went off course.

But of course you do........ Ever hear of a Trojan horse?

got any other 9th grade humor you'd like to share?
:rolleyes:

As like your weather balloon replys what else ya got?

That explains the denial of the weather balloon

I think the balloon over Latin America is lost. Wonder if the Brit is going to ask for a refund??

Hope they sortied something out of Norfolk to recover it...

They splashed it into 47' of water, recovery will be a piece of cake!!

Officials said the debris landed in 47 feet of water. It was not immediately clear how long the recovery would take. The Navy is taking the lead, supported by the Coast Guard.

Never did I ever think this country could be run by a bunch of clowns, watching sleepy Joe talk is painful I can’t even put the news on anymore I’ll stick to my outdoor channels watching stuff that interests me instead of listening to his country completely fall apart

Never thought I would see this country be run by a bunch of clowns, I can’t stand watching the news I’ll stick to my outdoor channels watching fishing and hunting instead of what sleepy Joe is screwing up

Hope they can recover all the "weather" recon info

Me too. All the secrets and science of climate change are in the chicom "weather" balloon" We needed their help!

80 years ago. Enemy balloons drifting over the US is nothing new. Several civilians killed but kept under wraps from the general population to prevent panic.

[HEADING=2]Chinese balloons flew over US three times during Trump administration: officials[/HEADING]

Balloons similar to the one that was shot down off the coast of South Carolina this weekend flew over the U.S. at least three times during the [Trump ]('https://thehill.com/people/trump/')administration, according to a senior U.S. defense official.

As Republicans spent the past few days criticizing the [Biden ]('https://thehill.com/people/biden/')administration over its response to the suspected Chinese spy balloon that flew across the country, an official revealed [during a briefing]('https://www.defense.gov/News/Transcripts/Transcript/Article/3288618/senior-defense-official-and-senior-military-official-hold-an-off-camera-on-back/') on Saturday that the U.S. was aware of three other instances during the prior administration and one instance earlier in the Biden administration that such an apparatus “transited” the country.

Chinese balloons flew over US three times during Trump administration: officials

we are only hearing of it now… lol ?

My father lived on Cape Cod before the family moved to New York. He used to relate a story of a ship being sunk in the Cape Cod Canal during WWII. He said that it was never mentioned on the news and if he hadn't seen it himself, for all intents and purposes it didn't exist.

Decades later I tried to research this statement on the innerneck and at the canal's website. Nothing, nada.

Now, a six or seven year-old kid may mis-remember some details of an event, but it's highly unlikely that they would have such a recollection of a non-event.

So here we are, seventy years later, and it's finally showing up that there was, in fact, a ship sunk in the Cape Cod Canal. It forced shipping to go around the Cape, and at least one ship fell victim to a U-boat attack.

News blackouts. Who'da thunk?

About time someone had BALLS to shoot these things down.....or we could tariff them
