Obama to call for nuclear-free world

President Barack Obama will call for the elimination of all nuclear weapons across the globe, in remarks on Sunday he hopes will lend credibility to his message in atomic disputes with Iran and North Korea.

Visiting Prague during an eight-day visit to Europe, Obama plans to deliver what his aides have billed as a major speech on weapons proliferation.

Obama, who is making his debut on the world stage, said in Strasbourg, France on Friday that he would lay out an agenda to secure the world's loose nuclear materials and halt the spread of illicit weapons.

He added that he wanted to offer an agenda "to seek the goal of a world without nuclear weapons."

"Even with the Cold War over, the spread of nuclear weapons or the theft of nuclear material could lead to the extermination of any city on the planet," Obama said.

Yeah, I’m sure Iran and NK will get right on that... And, I’m sure the Russians and Chinese helping them will be honest about it, too... Right? Excuse me while I go laugh... and then maybe cry over the stupidity of our citizens electing this dangerous man.

Daniel 8:25

New American Standard Bible (©1995)
"And through his shrewdness He will cause deceit to succeed by his influence; And he will magnify himself in his heart, And he will destroy many while they are at ease. He will even oppose the Prince of princes, But he will be broken without human agency.

GOD'S WORD® Translation (©1995)
He will cleverly use his power to deceive others successfully. He will consider himself to be great and destroy many people when they don't expect it. He will oppose the Commander of Commanders, but he will be defeated, though not by any human power.

Well, at least I know where I’ll be going... Time for everyone to “get right with God” if they haven’t done so already (besides, one can die at any time — not just from a nuke... However, now it is more important than ever to be educated on what is set to happen in the relatively near future if things continue to ratchet up at the current pace. One wouldn’t want to be under any misconceptions, and thus make it easier to be deceived by the evil that is spreading...)

Well, hell. I guess we don't need those additional troops in Trashkanistan after all.

Uhhhh....a little clarification......is calling Afghanistan "Trashkanistan" an example of arrogance?

What a rube. Lenin would have called him a useful idiot. I hope this incompetent fool lives long enough to see the pain caused by his actions.
