After all, then had precise time and position information as to where
this thing should have been.

They are claiming that it came down in the pacific ocean. *Obviously
they have no real ability to detect this relatively large object, with a
shape that is probably ideal to detect with radar (as opposed to a
streamlined missle).

Next time you post about Portland, remember there are at least two,
one on the east coast and one on the west coast.

But the real one is here.
