The United States is not FIRST at something? Perish the thought! Our Department of Defense is now shaking in their boots at the prospects of technologically being "bombed back to the stone age" by the thought of China being able to surgically (okay, sporadically, after the third attempt) remove an aging satellite from the orbital sky. Consider this: China blows our communication satellites out of orbit, and we are all back to sending messages via Western Union or Pony Express. The Red Machine obliterates our GPS satellites, and our military loses the "smartness" of our bombs. The People's Republic kills our "eye in the sky" and we can no longer see an invasion before it happens. Perhaps we should reconsider our Imperialist ambitions around the world and focus on defending America first? Just a thought... Say WHAT!? The United States is not FIRST at something?

It is not a defensive weapon, in fact it is incredibly unviable for anything but an offensive weapon. But we sink billions into it anyway. Curious, no? The whole concept is scary as hell.
