Obama Vows to Gut America’s Nuclear Arsenal…Again!
Let’s see now… Obama is gutting our deployed nuclear stockpile from 5,113 to 1,550. Now, he want’s to gut that even further! If recent news items are to be believed, Obama is aiming at a low end retention of only 300 nukes. That would drop us down to about the level of nukes possessed by France! Gee, that’s comforting…
Anyway, good luck with that, comrade Obama. Better get crackin’ before November, чмо!:
Obama vows to pursue further nuclear cuts with Russia

SEOUL (Reuters) – U.S. President Barack Obama vowed on Monday to pursue further nuclear arms cuts with Russia, urged China to follow suit and issued stern warnings to North Korea and Iran in their nuclear standoffs with the West.
Acknowledging the United States has more warheads than necessary, Obama held out the prospect of new reductions in the U.S. arsenal as he sought to rally world leaders for additional concrete steps against the threat of nuclear terrorism.
“We can already say with confidence that we have more nuclear weapons than we need,” Obama told students at South Korea’s Hankuk University a few hours before a global nuclear security summit opened in Seoul.
He pledged a new arms-control push with incoming Russian president Vladimir Putin when they meet in May. But any further reductions would face stiff election-year opposition from Republicans in Congress who already accuse him of weakening America’s nuclear deterrent.

Though Obama was vague on exactly how such a vision would be achieved, he voiced confidence the United States and Russia, which reached a landmark arms-control treaty in 2010, “can continue to make progress and reduce our nuclear stockpiles”.
“I firmly believe that we can ensure the security of the United States and our allies, maintain a strong deterrent against any threat, and still pursue further reductions in our nuclear arsenal,” he said.
But another arms accord with Moscow will be a tough sell to U.S. conservatives who say Obama has not moved fast enough to modernize the U.S. strategic arsenal, a pledge he made in return for Republican votes that helped ratify the START treaty.

Folks, we are being sold down the river by a gaggle of idiots!

DC needs the money. They are paying muslims fitty grand each in bribes and heavily armored limos are expensive to purchase maintain and run. DC needs to learn how to, walk like a man. They are hoping the enemy won’t nuke them as many Americans may not care.

They can threaten us with prison, they can create laws that attack our daily lives but they cannot make us change our minds.

This is not the 80s and MAD, mutual assured destruction will not work. I would like to se a new movie made, Global Thermonuclear War Against Madmen. What is the correct move? As the world nukes up we do this. Actions have consequences. For those of you who did not live under the shadow of Nuclear war heres how it works dummies.
If we are attacked there will be a time period where we hesitate. The more nukes we have the less chance that the entire network could be knocked out. The fewer there are to knock out the faster the attacker can concentrate their missiles on large US cites. The attackers will begin with the big cities, meanwhile, having reduced the amount of sites we have nothing left to fire back. But of course if someone has to win it shouldn’t be us, you know Obama and the crats, might as well let the attacker win. Besides, we won’t have pay anyone if we are dead!

And in classic DC fashion when the cities are destroyed, from their DC bunker they will try to negotiate a surrender of the rest of the USA.

I don’t want to hog the comment section but insanity’s pace seems to be quickening. Imagine these people emerging from the bunker after vital supplies run out but into a very different world. They emerge into an apocalyptic nuclear afterworld, a world where nothing works like it had, a world where the armored limo rusts in place and they don’t know squat about shop. A world where every survivor outside the bunkers is pissed off at them. How many people follow Joe Biden into that world?
I call that divine retribution. It couldn’t happen to a more deserving group of stupid people.

Our ‘Dear Leader’ is becoming the Neville Chamberlain of the 21st century selling out our allies one at a time.
