BREAKING NEWS: California Fires Missile at U.S.!

Rate: 35 Flag

According to my unconfirmed sources, in an effort stave off an impending financial crisis, the State of California has declared war against the  United States. 

This super secret plot was exposed when California launched a missile attack from it's super secret missile base located someplace off the coast of Catalina Island.  No one is quite sure where the missile was aimed at, however. 

A source, who wishes to remain anonymous due to not being sure what his name is, said the following, "DUUUUU-UUDE!  That was SO COOOOOL!" 

The missile, believed to a version of the Prop 19 Reefer Rocket has a range of "far" and can carry a payload of "a whole lot of shit, man"  which leads the Pentagon to believe that it may be capable of "stoning" virtually every state in the nation.

A Navy spokesman was quoted as saying,  " Oh, hell no!  It wasn't us!  It must have been them Air Force jerks...  yeah THEY did it not us...".

Additional sources tell us that the state of Kentucky has already prepared a counter strike with it's Ballistic Bourbon Bottle Rocket and crazy fundie bastards in Iowa's Strategic Bomber Command have authorized the loading of their devastating "Corn Holier" bombs.  Additionally, Illinois Attorney General Roman Maroni was quoted as saying, "This means fargin WAR, you fargin sneaky bastages!   I'm gonna take your dwork. I'm gonna nail it to the wall. I'm gonna crush your boils in a meat grinder. I'm gonna cut off your arms. I'm gonna shove 'em up your icehole. Dirty son-a-ma-batches!"

As of this time we have not been able to get any confirmation from the California State House because it seems all legislators and the Governator are in a closed theater viewing of "The Mouse That Roared".  

The Pentagon has also discounted claims of responsibility by the Mormons who wanted revenge for overturning Proposition 8 and DADT and by Meg Whitman who allegedly said, "That damn Mexican Jerry Brown did it!"

Are you sure it was off Catalina Island and not off the coast of Humboldt County? This was fun and goofy. Thanks I needed the laugh.
Okay.. I confess.. it came from my damn bunker..
I was trying to cook Indian and needed a little spice.
OOOOPPPPPS..:)
Rated with hugs
that would be Indian food not an Indian ..oops we say aboriginals..:)
Amy, know what? All I could think about was "The Mouse That Roared" as I was reading this, and was all set to look it up to see if I was remembering properly ... only to find out I didn't have to. Brilliant connection you made.

(But I'd be careful around Sgt. Mom for a while, given that she was Air Force and all....)
As long as the missile goes straight up John Boehner's butt, I'm all for it! Unless we take out Karl Rove, of course!
rated for good gallow's humor
Wow, and here I thought I had a mouth on me . . .

I heard about the missile just now on the news. Way to go, California.
Hey, I don't have a bunker yet. NO wars allowed until I get one....
Chill out chilluns or Daddy Canuck will have to spank......

"Corn Holier bombs"..... indeed!!

You DO realize that you and Tink are travelling in different directions together and will meet in La La Land?
(@Sky: That's GRANDdaddy Canuck....)
Today, Arizona. Tomorrow, Delaware!
Too bad it didn't hit Alaska!
Ah nuld going out with a bang.

"corn holier bomb" -- ah, so that's how them Iowa kids are using crystal meth these days [I grew up in Clinton].
The U.S. had it coming after the election results.
I would totally believe this if you said it was Texas,
rated with love
Are you sure it wasn't Northrup Grumman and those damn engineers? I was always told engineers use their personalities for birth control, anyway! It must be true!
Really, considering what assholes those Americans can be, it's a wonder more people don't declare war on them.
r;
Are you encroaching on Bonnie Russell territory with your reporting?
Wow, knowing CA as intimately as I do, that missile could possibly land right in the middle of a GOP caucus -- totally by accident, of course!

It must be a comfort to have such well-informed incisive media coverage of an ICBM off your coastline there. You guys are so lucky.
Wow, Man, thats off the wall!
Tell that squid you quoted that no self-respecting Aiman would launch a missile and miss. It must have been those mud-humping Army dudes.
Hey that wasn't an Iowa fundie, that was a Kansas fundie loading the Corn holier bomb!
Must be one of those weather ballons again. Or is it swamp gas or ball lightning?
I heard about this on NPR tonight. Thanks for explaining it.
I confess. It was mine a left over from the last Pirate Wimmin fray.
I'm pretty sure that Ahnollddd just got stoned today and shot off smoething.
Love this post...and also, if there were a way to rate a comment I would rate Shiral's!
Thanks, Mary Anne! =o)

I think taking out Karl Rove could be determined "a Surgical Strike."
A bong, it had to be a bong, a molotov cocktail bong, a giant gnarly molotov cocktail bong. Unfortunately they were too stoned when they launched it and sent it off in the wrong direction.
The same thing occurred in the late 80's in NorCal, near SF and just happened to be near the Nuclear Accelerator facility. What?! Yes! Saw it with my own eyes, along with hundreds of others who called the siting in to talk radio stations and police. No answer from our government or military came until 3 days later...in a well packaged, disguised release from the military. Not saying what a crock it was, but...maybe it was? Military goof up. So what? Give it up!
I think you need to double-source this, like Woodward and Bernstein.
Don't be ridiculous. If you smoke enough reefer it looks exactly like a traffic helicopter 35 miles off the coast. Everyone knows there are traffic helicopters policing the ocean every hour of every day.

Why do people worry about these things? Everything is fine, trust them, everything is perfect.
Eeeeexxxcceeellleennntt!
Everyone thinks that the map is set in stone. Secede, California! Everyone can just grow their own fruits and vegetables since everyone hates us so much! xox
California is it's own country! You don't like our stuff...our food...that feeds most of the world, go hungry then! SECEDE CALIFORNIA, SECEDE! xox
Well, now we're going to have a civil war. I knew it. Now, I'm verklempt. xox
You know, I was in a Tibetan tea shop in Colorado, and I told the owner I was so happy to find someone there who had good black tea. I said I was from California.

A woman in the store walked up shaking her finger at me. She said to me, "Go back to California!"

Hate to tell her, there are more Coloradoans in California than Californians in Colorado.

SECEDE. xox
If I've heard it once, I've heard it a hundred times in the short time I've been away from California. "The land of fruits and nuts!" Yeah, well, if you don't like our fruits and nuts, grow them yourselves! It's light easy work. The fruits and nuts put themselves into a box and ship around the world! They just grow all day and then travel around. xox
All kidding aside, it was an alien spaceshift going back to its home planet. The evidence is the lack of credible evidence. The government has sent some "security expert" to toss about the theory of airplane contrails. Has anybody asked the local airports in order to corroborate this theory? You know flight plans? something? Aliens have been around for a long time. the goverments of the world try to explain them away with weak theories. Remember the weather balloons of the '50s?
Great posy - I needed a laugh rated
This is a joke, right?
Great article. Also like the obscure reference to Johnny Dangerously as well. One of my favorite characters of all time (Fargin Bastages!). Rated for creativity and humor (or was it serious...?)
Thank you, traffic chopper guys.
Is this what is meant by "shooting yourself in the foot?"
R
oops indeed. damn, someone is in deep shit
See, I thought maybe they were aiming for Canada, since we have better health care and are buying all the cheap real estate. I'll admit we are an easy target since most of the tax dollars go into funding schools and public services instead of building awesome defense systems. But I like your version better. And now that I think of it, California would never nuke B.C. because that's where the best pot comes from.
Well, at least you didn't blame Israel.
It was Disney, trying out their latest thrill ride for California Adventure.
I'm with Shiral on Boehner & Rove!!!!!!!!!!! This was just as funny as could be. I love your account better than the "airplane contrails" reported on TV last night. I live in downstate Illinois. I think the 51st state in the union should be Chicago and her suburbs!!
