While discussing the possibility of new page over at Area 51
andcontemplating a picture of a high altitude nuclear explosion, I commented, "Shiva is a pretty bitch when she's trying to destroy the universe." Well, Newt Gingrich is a petty bitch at the best of times, and his current madness about using electromagnetic pulse weaponry to counter the North Korean's effort to either launch a satellite or nuke Japan -- either way, a fuck-up...missed both!! " -- is an example of why people with PhDs in the history of Belgian Education regulations, should never be allowed to talk about science. Ever. Not even with a real scientist, capable of telling the guy how fucked up he is.
So, he proclaims on Fox that we need to EMP North Korea. There's a problem...EMP in this context is electromagnetic pulse, not Experience Music Project...EMP is a helluva weapon but there's one slight drawback... unless they've pulled a bigggggg fucking rabbit out of his ass, Gingrich is advocating high altitude nuclear airbursts against Korea. Ok, odd concept. Granted, given North Korea's location, we'd probably have to get right with South Korea, China, Japan and Russia first. There are non-nuclear ways to do do this, but they're not going to be very effective against a whole fucking country. Nope, a 50 megaton bomb at 100 miles will fry the little bastards circuits. It will also do the same to lots of other stuff. Pacemakers, IPods, microwave ovens, radar guidance systems. Interestingly, the more primitive the electronics, the better equipped they are to survive. Oh, and burying the stuff below ground helps a lot too...is anyone else seeing problems with these characteristics and attacking a country that is about as technologically advanced as Hahti and where they bury stuff and tunnel under stuff just to find some edible rocks?
Now, the damage on the surface will be little to none, except those caused by the accidents from the failing electronic systems. Tripping over facts is kind of a Gingrich specialty anyway...So, in order to prevent Kim Jong Il from having his way with us through nuclear weapons, on a weekend where the Prez starts talking about a world without nukes, this weasel advocates pre-emptive nuclear war. Of course, he doesn't say that. Maybe the services have some wonderful high tech weapon to do this, but if they do, it would be really highly classified, and if Newt still knew about it, somebody is leaking serious stuff to one of the biggest mouths on the right who is not so obviously crazy as to not be able to be elected, even in Georgia.
Gingrich was the child of a career military family, moving a number of
times while growing up and attending school at various military
installations. He ultimately graduated from Baker High School in Columbus, Georgia, in 1961. He received a B.A. degree from Emory University in Atlanta in 1965. He received an M.A. in 1968 and a PhD in 1971 in Modern European History from Tulane University in New Orleans.[4]
His dissertation topic was Belgian Education policy in Africa. While at
Tulane, Gingrich, who at the time belonged to no religious group, began
attending the St. Charles Avenue Baptist Church to pursue an interest
in the effect of religion on political theory; he was soon baptized by the Rev. Mr G. Avery Lee.[5]
...A Baptist since graduate school, Gingrich converted to Catholicism, his wife’s faith, on March 29, 2009. [15]
Anyway, without recapping his rather bizarre career -- he commits serial adultery, marries the gal, converts to her religion while condemning and trying to railroad Clinton out of the White House, politicizes the flag, writes a "it would have been a good thing if the South had won at Gettysburg and Roosevelt knew about the Japs" set of alternative histories, and helped Tom Delay come to power along with Twitshit de la Dweeb. About the only thing he's done that indicates anything even marginally pleasant is replacing Dick Cheney as Republican Whip. Twit. Idiot....A Baptist since graduate school, Gingrich converted to Catholicism, his wife’s faith, on March 29, 2009. [15]
