Obama's Unilateral Disarmament

It would appear that the Democrats' world view has not evolved beyond their "you can't hug a child with nuclear arms" days. While North Korea, Iran and other belligerent states are building nukes, Obama wants to get rid of ours.

The Obama administration will move ahead with Senate ratification of a treaty banning nuclear tests that was voted down by Republicans more than a decade ago, Vice President Joseph R. Biden, Jr. said Thursday.

In a speech setting out the administration's arms-control agenda, Mr. Biden also said the United States will continue to pursue President Obama's call for the elimination of all U.S. nuclear arms, but defended spending $7 billion in the coming year to repair an aging arsenal.
