Heard on KPFA on the way to work...
"Rolling Back the Empire" (allusion to the "rolling back the stone at Jesus' tomb) protests against nuclear weapons at Lawrence Livermore Labs are planned over the weekend. What caught my attention is that these weapons are called ROBUST EARTH PENETRATORS! As if to make sure that this "penetrating" machine is not construed as flaccid, they just had to add "robust." Just go ahead, f--k the earth, will you?
