Star Wars Missile Defense--In a Galaxy Not So Far Away

(Captain's Quarters has the story. Original site for video: Eyeblast.)

This is just absurdly cool:





Democrats were willing to believe that embryonic stem cells were not just the only way to advance medical technology, but that they would make people in wheelchairs get up and walk--all this while no treatments had ever been developed using embryonic stem cells, but many had been through adult stem cells. Then we discovered that ESC research was needless. Now we see that, after years of hearing Democrats call the program a fantastical piece of science fiction, SDI missile defense technology can not only work but, as Captain Ed points out, bring us into a new and perhaps less terrifying era of warfare free from long-range ballistic missiles. (Next up on the Democrats' science agenda: global warming. How do you feel about their track record now?)

The Democrats don't respect science. They simply manipulate it as best they can to advance the same agenda they've always had: reduce the dignity of humanity and subordinate individuals to state authority.
