Putin Once Casually Said That He Could Destroy America In A Half-Hour
2015-01-24
Putin then added that the only reason the US had any interest in relations with Moscow was that Russia was the only country that could "destroy America in half an hour or less."

Writes Schoen and Kaylan: "It would be a difficult to find a statement more revealing about Putin's true position regarding the United States."
Well, I guess he's put some thought to the premise.

#7  Putin thought it was going to be a slam dunk inside job but he hadn't anticipated a couple of things: the administration's ineptitude and the 53% of the American people who work for a living.

#5  Trying to ignite a "Name that Song' kind of contest with Champ?
Champ is well on his way to doing it, but has taken a bit more than 30 minutes.

#3  And 15 minutes after that, Russia would cease to exist. If Obama actually had the balls to call the launch. Which I kinda doubt.

#1  Now, now, Vlad, don't fergit that as a young child visiting Guam decades ago, due to your poor swimming skills you could've drowned in less than one-half that time iff it wasn't for the efforts of both a future US POTUS + a Madonna Fan to save your then-Soviet Kiddie arse.
