Sen. Biden may scotch missile defense.

Sen. Biden may scotch missile defense. Didn't see any mention of this on the main American news sites I checked, as they celebrate Bush's recent policy triumphs in Congress and wink at his fleeing for his ranch for a month. Even stories about his future challenges don't refer to this, which seems important to me. You can bet the rest of the world is more interested in this story.

Scotch missile defense:
"Hey, Wullie! There's a grreat bloody missile comin' doon! Will we put the High Altitude Go-Gettem Intercept System into action?"
"Aye! Launch the HAGGIS!"
"But wha'll pay for it?"
"Oh, aye. I haddna thought of that. Wha'll pay?"
Boom.

What? You mean the vast and powerful liberal media hasn't covered this story? I will go to the Fox News Channel for all my news now, at least they're fair & balanced...
