The way Obama is basically threatening Iran with destruction eventhough it has no nukes is pretty psychotic. Anyone who still sings praises to this man is sick in the head.

Decipher this for you
It is an appearance for the Russains and the U.S.
What they are really doing, is getting rid of out dated
and useless nucks and found a way to get polical points
doing so.
All the while building the new generation of nuclear

with our money.
Obama is crafty, with a shrewd smile and a silver tongue.

The Problem is that the Pentagon aims to achieve a disarming and unanswerable first-strike capability. On the new missiles on ships in the Black Sea in Bulgaria and on land in Romania and Poland by 2015 former Trident missile engineer Bob Aldridge-www.plrc.org-commented, “Whether on ships or land, they are still a necessary component for an unanswerable first strike”.

I agree! I’m a right wing wacko, but this time I party company with Rush and Sean. They’re panties are all twisted by the thought that we’re laying down our big guns.
The way I see it, the policy only applies to signatories of the NPT who actually have nukes. Iran is neither. So if Iran attacks us with pea shooters, we can, even under the new dispensation, turn their fucking country to glass.
I think this is a direct, overt, explicit message to Iran: Don’t even think about the next step. The sublety is brilliant.

If Bush was still President, and if he released exactly the same document, the headline on the Democrat-leaning sites would have been.
“Bush leaves option of nuclear attack on Iran open.”
That’s the policy still. But since its Obama, we’ll be told how wonderful it is that the US still keeps nuclear weapons and still threatens to use them whenever it chooses to do so.
