Related Link » Our Aging DeterrentThe Obama Himself, our Community-Organizer-in-the-US (COITUS), wants to interrupt the 65-year US effort to maintain our nuclear deterrent (COITUS interruptus). His ignorance together with His arrogance makes for an explosive mix of stupid foreign policy. I can not overemphasize this point:
“We recently observed the anniversaries of the atomic bombs dropped on Hiroshima and Nagasaki, actions that brought an abrupt end to the carnage of World War II and arguably have prevented the wars since from escalating to another worldwide conflict. Nuclear weapons in the right hands are instruments of peace. [...] Yet President Obama appears ready and willing to sacrifice America's nuclear readiness by avoiding the testing and maintenance necessary to keep our deterrent ready and credible. [...] Leading by example to rid the world of nuclear weapons, we may have only succeeded in making our own ineffective. A report released in May by the Perry-Schlesinger Commission (named for two former defense secretaries) warned that we must increase funding for, and improve the effectiveness of, our deteriorating nuclear arsenal. [...] Inactivity breeds vulnerability. A world without nuclear weapons would be nice. A world without thugs willing to use them against us would be better. Until then, we can at least ensure that the weapons we have still work.”

Neglecting our nuclear deterrent, in a world where very bad people have nuclear weapons, is suicidal.

Someone came up with an appropriate photoshopped illustration for my
"Community-Organizer-in-the-US (COITUS)" concept.
