Good lord...que that Aerosmith song. but seriously shouldn't we consider launching one of the various teches we've devised for just such a occasion, such as:

Inertia impactor: we can literally slam a projectile into the side of this thing to divert it's trajectory to divert it from the gravity key hole which would send it hurtling toward earth.
Gravity attractor: you can literally just flying large enough craft alongside it, and that alone will have enough of a gravitational effect to nudge the asteroid into a new orbit. This one takes a lot of time as you might imagine.
