Mr. President,
We've really come a long way since the fall of the soviet empire. Russia has developed new strategic missiles designed to defeat U.S. missile defenses. and China has deployed three new types of long-range nuclear missiles. North Korea is openly developing nuclear weapons as well. And Iran may soon follow.

Then there is Pakistan, India and Israel who are all packing nukes as well.

So I guess it only makes sense for your administration to raise the stakes and design a new nuclear warhead in two new Energy Department nuclear weapons laboratories.



The warhead is just a piece of a nuclear modernization program revealed Wednesday before the House Armed Services subcommittee on strategic forces by Thomas P. D'Agostino, deputy administrator for defense programs in the department's National Nuclear Security Administration (NNSA).

NNSA Director Linton Brooks said in an interview yesterday, "the warhead is in many ways a "component replacement" program but that so many replacements and upgrades will be made that it could be considered new. It will be easier to build, use less dangerous materials and will involve new designs for greater safety, security and greater performance margins," he said.

How about that; we are making a safe nuclear warhead. Now that is a hell of an oxymoron.

• If I could:
• add in the amount of anti-american hatred you have garnered over your time in office.
• multiply it times the number of unaccounted nukes from the old soviet union.
• subtract the amount of "good will" you generated in the Mid-East.
• add in new nukes from China and Russia and Korea.

Now you want to use nukes on Iran as a first strike weapon.

• It makes me wonder if global warming is really that important.

• It may be a low level but albeit new nuclear arms race at least until you are replaced with a saner, more competent president.
• Our lot in life has certainly changed since the end of the old evil empire.
• Ladies and gentlemen meet the United States the new evil empire.

Wake me up when September ends.
