Doomsday Clock…what time is it, Mr. Wolfbush?

With all the wars, Dubya gone nuts, deep integration and the stripping of individual rights, North Korea and it’s supposed nuke bomb, Iran and it’s, blah blah blah bbbbbbbbbbllllllllllllllllaaaaaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh….
……….I thought i’d check in on the Doomsday Clock to see how many minutes before midnight it’s set at. The Bulletin of Atomic Scientists reports 7 minutes to midnight, which is the same time as when it was first set in 1947. Over the years it’s changed, the closest being in 1953 when Russia and the United States set off thermonuclear devices within 9 months of each other.
WELL, how dissapointing to see the clock hasn’t been moved since 2002!!!!! I have the mind to ring up Kim Jong and Mr. Bush and tell them to get on with things. I went and had 50,000 of these t-shirts made up to profit off the ill state of the world, and these guys are just so daft they can’t draw the clock any further then 7 minutes. 7 minutes!!!. How am I going to sell all these shirts at this rate?
Now I have to sell at discounted prices and I’ll be lucky if I break even. Thanks a lot, Dubya!

My god you’re a busy gal. Well if you’d offered them a cut on the tees they may have obliged you.
Skimming the collection plates is probably easier. God loves those that help themselves and waffles in Belgium sounds good.

Who needs a clock, just go outside (if you live in or near a city) and take a whiff of the chunky air.
Forget the nukes, when the breeze gags ya, it’s all over baby!
Oh, and Scout, I assume you are probably already aware of this by now but in response to an earlier inquiry:

BTW, I nominated you for the blog awards too.:) So there.;)

“the stripping of individual rights, North Korea and it’s supposed nuke bomb,”
North Koreans don’t have any fucking rights to be stripped, now do they genius? They probably have a fucking a-bomb though…
Plutonium too. Nice and dirty.
“The DPRK officially announced that it manufactured up-to-date nuclear weapons after going through transparent legitimate processes to cope with the U.S. escalated threat of a nuclear war and sanctions and pressure. The already declared possession of nuclear weapons presupposes the nuclear test…
The DPRK will always sincerely implement its international commitment in the field of nuclear non-proliferation as a responsible nuclear weapons state.”
