Lest we forget....


This country* is still in the hands of madmen.

From the Washington Post:
The Pentagon has drafted a revised doctrine for the use of nuclear weapons that envisions commanders requesting presidential approval to use them to preempt an attack by a nation or a terrorist group using weapons of mass destruction. The draft also includes the option of using nuclear arms to destroy known enemy stockpiles of nuclear, biological or chemical weapons.
Ah, those "known enemy stockpiles" -- like those in Iraq? If the U.S. had "taken them out," who would have known they never existed?

Armscontrolwonk discusses Bolton, the UN, and Jack Straw's request that Condi "rein in" the man with the hideous moustache here.
