Rick Perry, I worked the Missile Defense project

National defense: Although the United States spends nearly as much on defense as every other country on Earth combined, Perry thinks that's not enough. He believes President Obama's attempts to limit nuclear weapons are misguided because they ignore "the realities of a world full of power-hungry despots who respect us not because of our ideals but because of our strength." He [Perry] wants to reinstate funding for a missile defense shield in Eastern Europe, a pet project of Bush's involving an expensive and unproved technology that generated enormous tension with Russia. LA Times op ed

SDI is a  boondoogle. Let me explain. For each $10B spent trying to shoot down warheads in space, it takes $1M for the offense to deploy hundreds of fake warheads.

The missile defense shield had only one purpose, fund the Socialist Defense Network via the Republican Communist Party. Rick Perry, we know you, you are in the end a goddamen communist in the model of that great American disaster, John C Fremont. Communist Republicans from start to finish.
