Default Obama's plans even wackier than those of Bush

I proposed converting our stockpile of fissile materials to non-

proliferation since it inspired cooperation and cost less than SDI and
had longer lasting benefits.

Since that time I have repeated my points any time that seemed
beneficial.

I wish I could take absolute credit for all these ideas. *However,
they were explored rather fully by Leo Szilard as early as 1934. *He
even wrote an addendum to Einstein's paper to FDR in 1940 noting the
importance of the long-range nuclear rocket. *It was this addendum
that caused Truman to include rocket scientists in Project Paperclip
in 1945 by JIOA division of OSS.

So, its not like folks at the highest level don't know the stakes and
capabilities or haven't taken action on them.

I am hopeful.

So was Jesus Christ and a few million Jews, hopeful. Guess what
happened next?

Exactly what part of our mainstream status quo don't you get?

If all the past, present and future bad guys are never policed for
their past, present or future debauchery, what exactly makes you think
they are just going to sit passively, as you run all over them and
take away most of their loot.

The top ten global corporations that you'd have to control is going to
be multi-trillion spendy as all get out, just in order to have
controlling interest in each and every one of them. Are there even 10
CEOs you'd dare trust behind your back?
