I still cant believe that 62mm Americans were that damned dumb. I still dont believe it...It's hard to grasp, isn't it? When I have conversations with them I realize they have no idea about the magnitude of the presidency in relation to foreign issues. To them it's all about either showing up Bush and the GOP or hope that he will appease some special need they have.

There is going to be a h-u-g-e amount of very disappointed left-wing wackos, and just plain center-lefties, all with their hands-out, wanting something from him, as he ‘promised’ on multiple occasions.
I think the reality of both domestic and foreign issues will hit Obama very hard, if it hasn’t already, and that minor facial tic will become a full-body spasm. I’m thinking he doesn’t fully-know what he’s gotten himself into, yet. I’d like to be in the room, when it hits him square in the face.

Giving the nuclear football to a muzzie trojan horse. Man, I feel safe.

Obama has about as much buisiness with that suitcase as I do piloting the shuttle.........

Giving the nuclear football to a muzzie trojan horse. Man, I feel safe.One wonders if the military has ever made plans for a Trojan Horse Commander-in-Chief springing his trap.
I have to believe they have thought about this in secret, especially during Clintons tenure.

Scared yet? Anybody that has ever had to pass a background investigation for access to top secret and nuclear materials already understands enough about Zero's lack of similar vetting to be scared sh*tless. Your lack of faith is well-founded, I'm afraid.

I fear Obama will replace the “football” with a secure phone line to the UN so he can call for help in a crisis.

That is one of the best examples of his stupidity. Even if he believes it, a smart man would not have said it.

Of course a smart man wouldn't have said it. I just re-watched the entire 13 hour PBS special "WAR AND PEACE in the Nuclear Age" from 1989. The entire build up of nukes was because of the huge cost multiplier advantage having a stockpile of nukes offered us. To not have the nukes would have required a huge military force. The game of MAD worked of course with a nation of sane citizens that had no desire to meet up with their promised 72 virgins. We are in an extremely dangerous world today - Pakistan is full of muzzies and they have nukes. If the government of Pakistan were toppled and mad muzzies took over - look out.
I worked in the defense industry for years during the cold war - it was nice to know who your enemy is and where they are located.

That will become clear with Obamas first peek inside the ever-present briefcase.
Good Lord, the thought of that is enough to cause 4 years of sleepless nights. Anyone that voted for this monster will never be a friend of mine again

Good post. I also wonder about the “effectiveness” of our nukes. I read an article recently that said since we dont test em anymore, we dont know if they have “expired.” Dont know if this is the case now.

mature, battle-scarred veterans who would stand up to our enemies. I have no such faith in Mr. Obama. I hope I'm wrong. I have no faith in Obama either, but for a slightly different reason. Obama is a been-nowhere done-nothing rookie who has never had to make a serious decision, much less under duress and urgency. He has had someone to cut his meat for him his entire pampered life, and now he may have to make literally earth-shaking decisions with his immature street-punk judgment.
My worry is that this simple fart will act impulsively and do something really stupid.
