Sure, sure. A "meteor" is what hit the Moon

The explosion was visible from the Earth with the naked eye, and caught on video:



But "meteor"?  Please.  We all know what happened: Obama needs to show that he's tough on foreign policy to get the Benghazi controversy to die down.  He dusted off IMAO's Nuke The Moon strategy:
Now the world will be pretty convinced that America is frick'n nuts and just looking for a fight, but we need to really ingrain it into everyone's conscious so that no one will ever even contemplate crossing us. This requires making good use of our nukes. I know, nukes can kill millions of people, but they sure aren't doing anyone any good just sitting around. I mean, how many years has it been since we last dropped a bomb on someone? No one even thinks we'll actually use one now. Of course, using nukes shouldn't be done haphazardly; all uses have to be well planned out because the explosions are so cool looking that we'll want to give the press plenty of notice so they can get pictures of the mushroom cloud from all sorts of different angles. But what to nuke? Well, usually the idea is populated cities, but, by the beliefs of my morally superior religion, killing is wrong. So why can't we be more creative than nuking people. My idea is to nuke the moon; just say we thought we saw moon people or something. There is no one actually there to kill (unless we time it poorly) and everyone in the world could see the results. And all the other countries would exclaim, "Holy @$#%! They are nuking the moon! America has gone insane! I better go eat at McDonald's before they think I don't like them."
Well, it makes as much sense any anything going on lately ....

As hilarious as that Frank J article was, if you'll recall there was at one time actually a plan to nuke the moon:

That was Obama's approval rating cratering.

I can assure you it wasn't us. I checked. The Castle is clean on this one.

I can't believe that this video managed to make a large explosion caused by a meteor into a sleep inducing bore.
