How exactly is creating new nukes better? Are we going to save more lives? Hmm, sounds fishy.

Seriously if you back the deaths of innocents that have no way of affecting policy, they you are a goon just as bad as Saddam or OBl, shame on you.

Isn't backing the use of nuclear weapons sort of implicitly backing the deaths of innocents who don't affect policy? The innocents are probably going to be the ones most effected if the US arrogantly develops and employs new and uneeded nuclear weapons. Shame on you, sir, pretending to care about the innocents while expressing support for new weapons, which by their very nature, will end up killing innocents by the tens of thousands.
Besides, according to the article from FAS, "low yield" nukes as bunker busters are as grounded in actual science as the star wars defense system.
Instead of creating new WMD's for rougue nations to eventually get their hands on, the bush administration should actually try allocating some funding for new training, equipment, and protocols for the people who will end up responding to, god forbid, the next attack on american soil.
