and I understand the obama plan is that letting the nukes start to leak is okay. they're mainly stored in red states?

I thought that was clearly subsumed by my earlier apologia, and I regret any inconvenience or damage I may have caused by not being clear then.

Rostenkowski. But we should draw the line at unindicted co-conspirators. There are too many on both sides of the aisle to list.

Now, Penske, let's get your apologies on the record for the last fifty years of Republican scandals - we won't go back to Byrd-land, but maybe you could start with Nixon and Agnew and roll forward from there. Don't forget DeLay, Gingrich, and the John who just got reelected.
Ollie Ollie in free!

Most of all, don't forget to apologize for Hank. You've got an awful lot to answer for.
Until Hank holds guv'mint office as a Republican, any apology for his behavior should have to come from him directly.

I know you advocate just mothballing them, and so are upset with the large increase in funding from earlier this year and the additional increase Obama just proposed.

Yes, I do believe just about that entire increase is to be spent in deep red states.

If there is one thing that should be easy to forgo due to budget constraints it's buying new nuclear weapons that will never be used.

Maybe that started in the 70s (I don't know), but it ended way later.

You think he wants to spend $84+ billion on simple maintenance? Also, since when has any member of congress said "modernization" and not meant "build a bunch of new stuff to replace what we have now?"

you're not talking about repainting the garage. it could cost a bit, especially if it's been neglected.

seriously, there is an answer out there somewhere and yet people keep posting crap about his motives without having any idea of the answer to that question. nwtaf?
