"This weekend in Prague," he said, "I will lay out an agenda to seek the goal of a world without nuclear weapons."  
Barack Obama

Some would say “admirable goal but unrealistic”.  And they would be stupid.

Some would say “admirable goal and we should do it”. And they would be dangerous.

Why?  Because there will never, again, be a world without nukes. Even if successful getting rid of the weapons, the world would never be more than a week or two from having them again. Such a world would be dangerous, unstable, and prone to rapid preventive escalations.

I have to wonder, is Obama just naive? Or is there some underlying ill will he has against the world and our country?

Isn’t it sad I have to wonder such questions.  300+ million people in our country, and THIS is the best we can elect? Sad.

    Sometime in the future:

    Headline day 1: Nukes eliminated, MAD world finally gone!
    Headline day 2: Comet Spotted Hurdling to Earth!
    Headline day 3: Billions Dead for Lack of Nuclear Weapons!
