16. Saipan, just north of Guam, is a U.S. commonwealth
Presumbaly the pointy-nosed NK missiles could also hit the sweatshops, then.

Until recently, they had a sweet deal whereby they got to use the ""Made in U.S.A." label, while maintaining their own immigration (lax) and wage (dirt cheap) policies.

Now the labels have to read "Commonwealth of the Northern Mariana Islands". (Guam is the southernmost in the chain and is a separate territory). Wonder how that one got by The Exterminator...

Now that you mention it, I do seem to recall Bugboy saying things like "I view the Marianas as my own Galapagos Islands" (to promulgate his brand of conservatism :puke: :puke: :puke: )

Oh, by the way, our agency maintains offices on both Guam and Saipan. Those are my colleagues potentially getting crisped. So, please, no snickering...
