“It’s unbelievable. Unbelievable. No administration in America’s history would, I think, ever have considered such a step that we just found out President Obama is supporting today. It’s kinda like getting out there on a playground, a bunch of kids, getting ready to fight, and one of the kids saying, ‘Go ahead, punch me in the face, and I’m not going to retaliate. Go ahead and do what you want to with me.'” — Sarah Palin on the Obama administration’s new nuclear strategy.
If you believe the NYTimes that policy says,
In other words we’re limiting ourselves to only using conventional weapons to bomb them back into the stone age. In case you weren’t aware of this – we have conventional weapons with as much explosive power as the bombs dropped on Hiroshima and Nagasaki. BTW, there’s an intentional loophole in this policy that still lets the US do whatever it wants.The policy explicitly excludes North Korea, Iran and other “outlier” nations which have violated or renounced the main treaty to halt nuclear proliferation.
The Prez had the comeback of the day: “I really have no response. Because last I checked, Sarah Palin’s not much of an expert on nuclear issues.”

I liked Palin better when she was just trying to sell me on Progressive Auto Insurance.
yeah, we mock her at our peril- sarah palin defines the reality for people who aren’t paying attention, and want a snippy sound bite that give them a quotable version of reality.
they don’t read, they watch fox, and they believe what is convenient, from people who say the right things, even if they don’t act the right way.she may not be smart, but she is clever.
the fact that she is still on the news is proof of that- time to figure out how to take her seriously, w/out giving her more stature.
Maybe she used to be within eyesight of a nuclear plant?
