Farkin Idiots

Our current administration makes me sick.

By ANNE GEARAN, AP National Security Writer
WASHINGTON – The United States has 5,113 nuclear warheads in its stockpile and "several thousand" more retired warheads awaiting the junkpile, the Pentagon said Monday in an unprecedented accounting of a secretive arsenal born in the Cold War and now shrinking rapidly.

The Obama administration disclosed the size of its atomic stockpile going back to 1962 as part of a campaign to get other nuclear nations to be more forthcoming, and to improve its bargaining position against the prospect of a nuclear Iran.

"We think it is in our national security interest to be as transparent as we can be about the nuclear program of the United States," Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton told reporters at the United Nations, where she addressed a conference on containing the spread of atomic weapons.

The U.S. has previously regarded such details as top secret.

The figure includes both "strategic," or long-range weapons, and those intended for use at shorter range.

The Pentagon said the stockpile of 5,113 as of September 2009 represents a 75 percent reduction since 1989.


Granted the story goes on to say its "no big secret". It was still a guess!!! Once we reveal our secrets, we can never go back.

Stupid, stupid, stupid.

Read the whole mess here.

Damn I don't know why your panties are all twisted, don't you play cards? Don't you tell the whole table what is in you hand and then hope they tell you what is in theirs?

We DESERVE this government. WE put them in there.

How's that change working out for the Obamacons?
