Nuclear Proliferation: Al-Qaida says it will use Pakistan's nuclear weapons against the U.S. if it ever gets the chance. We're not surprised. Nor would we be surprised if it eventually got the opportunity.
If you think 9/11 was bad, just wait until al-Qaida gets a nuke, which is not as far-fetched as it sounds. Based both in Afghanistan and Pakistan's untamed northwest frontier, al-Qaida in April launched a major offensive into Pakistan's Swat Valley, engaging in fierce fighting with Pakistani army forces.
Swat is just 60 miles from Pakistan's capital of Islamabad. If al-Qaida beats the Pakistan army in Swat, what will keep it from marching on Islamabad and gaining control of the Pakistani nuclear arsenal — said to number as many as 55 warheads? If you said Pakistan's ISI intelligence agency, guess again. It's riddled with fundamentalist al-Qaida sympathizers.
If this isn't frightening enough, the U.S. stands under direct threat of possible attack by a nuclear power — North Korea. That country, in the destabilizing throes of a leadership change, warns it will launch a missile on July 4 toward Hawaii — even as the U.S. shadows a North Korean ship containing nuclear contraband.

By the end of his term, I would guess that most working class Democrats will have decided that Obama is an agent of the “Establishment.” ;-) We know that enough of them are wanting feminism to go to its grave, and they don’t like the “free trade” regime.
He isn't dumb .... he's just preoccupied ..... with building Socialism in One Country. (Stalin's old slogan, the one he used to beat, then exile, then murder Trotsky.)
His ruthlessness has other objects now.
You inventing your own acronyms, and we're supposed to know what you're talking about?
SNAG - sensitive New Age guy
He was BORN and RAISED in Indonesia. He saw America as TOO WEALTHY and a MILITARY BULLEY. In his eyes we NEVER GAVE ENOUGH. We could NEVER be generous enough, so Obama is going to fix that. He’ll show other countries how he’d like the U.S. to be - a third world country by bankrupting us.
He is going to CHANGE that. He’s not interested in redistributing our welath in America. His plan is to REDISTRIBUTE our WEALTH TO OTHER COUNTRIES and bring us DOWN to their level as he raisees THEM UP - at our expense. Then life will be “fair” - America was put in its place. He HATES AMERICA. He is a RACIST.
You mean like Tom Ridge?!?!
