Per your logic, it is unlawful by the supreme law of the land (treaties) to explode nukes in the atmosphere.

We can pull out of the Limited Test Ban Treaty at any time, which would make using nuclear weapons perfectly legal and constitutional.

and no one will follow that command.

I served many years on ballistic missile submarines. Our job was to follow orders and that was what we did. If the call to release nuclear weapons ever came we would execute that order. No questions asked.

Ok, we have been in three wars with a communists, and 2 wars with muzzies. How many nukes have we fired so far? You’re telling me a President is going to order a former state nuked. ? Are you high?

If your target was in the U.S. you would have followed that order without question? What if your mom "Ella" was in the target zone? You would blindly turn her into a cinder?

Let me put this in terms I'm comfortable with... kitchen terms.

The difference between commitment and involvement is best illustrated by the contributions to breakfast between the pig and the chicken.

The pig was committed, the chicken was involved.

I'm committed to freedom and self governance.

If you can't wrap your brain around that, and realize that you can let me be free, or you can kill me, and that's your only two choices, that's your problem.

Wonderful, the things they teach at culinary school. ;)

Shoot, Moonshot, looks like you'll be able to join Obama's army as an officer then. Which is sooo cool, since those sorts of guys get snazier uniforms, the higher up in the organization they go. I bet you'd cut a fine figure of a man all in black with stylish silver and red accents to impress the ladies. Maybe they'd even let you press the button to nuke your favorite Texas city! Though they'd probably run that via a lottery for every Obama donation, so you'd better get hussling and send him some.
