Damn, for the most part I support what our military has been doing, but the thought of testing or building newer smaller nuclear weapons can only create infinitly worse problems.

Any thoughts?
This is a smooth political move. It will give conservatives a huge throbbing boner, and the Liberals will feel safer knowing our military is strong when the entire world goes to war for us to avenge the evils of capitalism and our war in Iraq.

Can't stop working even though the Russians are beat, people will catch up if we don't, and that will be trouble. We're lucky wars don't have casualties in the millions now that the U.S. is the only super power, imagine if the U.S. had gone to war with Russia, the numbers lost in that war would have been staggering.
