No, he would chicken out, hesitate, then do nothing. Thank God our nuclear response isn’t totally in his hands.
I suspect he would be more likely to order a strike on those portions of our armed forces that refused to stand down in the face of the enemy.
It’s deliberate. You can’t accidentally go wrong 100% of the time.
and the converse.
In the meanwhile he is giving all the muslim nations hi tech secrets, technologies and money. This is both directly and indirectly. Muslims have already infiltrated every sensitive organization, technological institution, governmental organization and business in America. Then we have all the great gifts to the backwards muslim nations of technologies and cash.
Boy, I wonder what the upshot will be?
A vote for Ron Paul is a direct slap in the face to the sacrifices my son has made for this country in both Iraq and in the Far East.
"Our enemies may be irrational, even outright insane, driven by nationalism, religion, ethnicity or ideology. They do not fear the United States for its diplomatic skills or the number of automobiles and software programs it produces. They respect only the firepower of our tanks, planes and helicopter gunships."
— Ronald Reagan
Its not staggering, the asshole said flat out he wanted to get rid of our nukes back in 2008. People are now surprised that he is keeping his marxist promises?
Senate approved this, right?..Right?? /s
On 13 May, the agreement was submitted by U.S. President Barack Obama for ratification in the U.S. Senate. Ratification required 67 votes in favor (out of 100 Senators). On Tuesday, 16 September 2010 the Senate Foreign Relations Committee voted 14–4 in favor of ratifying New START. The measure had support from three Senate Republicans: Richard Lugar of Indiana, Bob Corker of Tennessee, and Johnny Isakson of Georgia. Senator John Kerry and Secretary of State Hillary Clinton have expressed optimism that a deal on ratification was near.
Republicans in the Senate generally deferred to Jon Kyl (R-AZ), a leading conservative on defense issues, who sought a strong commitment to modernize U.S. nuclear forces, and questioned whether there was time for ratification during the lame duck session, calling for an opening of the negotiation record before a vote is held. Senator Ben Nelson (D-NE) joined Kyl in expressing skepticism over the timing of ratification,and Senator Kit Bond (R-MO) has expressed opposition.
Obama made New START ratification a priority during the 2010 post-election lame duck session of Congress, and Senators John Kerry (D-MA) and Richard Lugar (R-IN), the Democratic Chairman and senior Republican on the Senate Foreign Relations Committee, were leading supporters of the treaty.
On 22 December 2010, the U.S. Senate gave its advice and consent to ratification of the treaty, by a vote of 71 to 26 on the resolution or ratification. Thirteen Republican Senators crossed party lines to vote in favor of the resolution, along with all 56 Democratic senators and both Independent senators.
Obama signed documents completing the U.S. ratification process on 2 February 2011.

They're not slumbering. On the contrary, they are enjoying their government benefits. Consider the following:
In essence, Obama is banking on the votes of those who benefit from the give-away programs he has put in place.
The Constitution specifies "two thirds of Senators PRESENT" (caps added). That means it takes only 34 Senators to ratify a treaty if there is a quorum.
Of course, pursuant to a treaty we never ratified, our Department of State specifies that "customary practice" is that a treaty needs only a signature of the President or an appointed representative in order to be effectively in force; IOW, it need not be ratified to be treated as law by our government.
Your statement is a direct slap to the truth, and a direct slap in the face of thousands of military people who support Ron Paul.
Ron Paul has NOT said he's against the military - he said he's against the use of the military AS POLICE. And he's pointed out that trying to do a job that they are Not trained for, is what is getting most of them killed.
So slap yourself, because there are a lot of dead US Military who got that way running around trying to play cop to a bunch of thugs, instead of destroying them or getting out.
Destroying them or getting out - that, VERBATIM, is Ron Paul's declared use of the military.
And anyone who doesn't agree with it, IMO, is slapping the face of every military person risking their lives RIGHT NOW who are forced to play footsie with a deadly enemy.
To anyone who still think obama is stupid or in over his head - think again. This guy is doing a GREAT job to kill America for good. He is following his plan he was brought up to do and everything is working exactly how it was planned. And he KNOWS by now that nobody will stop him.
Cut by 80%, no missile defense, and we cannot get our own energy. He is not incompetent. He is destroying the country on purpose.
Maybe he's a fool, maybe he's not.
Doesn't matter.
His minders, the folks on the other end of the Blackberry pulling his strings, are very smart and evil to the very marrow of their bones.
They have been planning for this moment, the destruction of this country, for a century; they are not going to give up just because of some silly election.
Get ready those of you who live in on the West Coast. Don’t be surprised if you live under a Chinese flag in your lifetime.
Does anyone even care? He is systematically deconstructing the country. At a very rapid pace. The media won’t report it. Former military brass won’t speak out on it. Republicans in congress are allowing it. Won’t even call a press conference to address it. What can we do about it?
All we do is hate on Romney, hate on Cain, hate on Perry, hate on Bachman. We are so destroying our chances to win the most important election of our time. All in our quest for the “perfect” conservative candidate who doesn’t even exist.
Exactly. Obama was easily identified as a stone cold Alinsky Marxist in his world view. He was elected anyway.
Pop culture is currently saturated with clues about what they intend to bring about. The shock and awe assault on Roman Catholicism is a big tell that they believe their time has come.
