A video has surfaced of Presidential candidate Senator Barack Obama talking on his plans for strategic issues such as nuclear weapons and missile defense.
The full text from the video, as released, reads as follows:
Thanks so much for the Caucus4Priorities, for the great work you've been doing. As president, I will end misguided defense policies and stand with Caucus4Priorities in fighting special interests in Washington.
First, I'll stop spending $9 billion a month in Iraq. I'm the only major candidate who opposed this war from the beginning. And as president I will end it.[i.e. not win it]
Second, I will cut tens of billions of dollars in wasteful spending.
I will cut investments in unproven missile defense systems.
I will not weaponize space.
I will slow our development of future combat systems.
And I will institute an independent "Defense Priorities Board" to ensure that the Quadrennial Defense Review is not used to justify unnecessary spending.
Third, I will set a goal of a world without nuclear weapons. To seek that goal, I will not develop new nuclear weapons; I will seek a global ban on the production of fissile material; and I will negotiate with Russia to take our ICBMs off hair-trigger alert, and to achieve deep cuts in our nuclear arsenals.
You know where I stand. I've fought for open, ethical and accountable government my entire public life. I don't switch positions or make promises that can't be kept. I don't posture on defense policy and I don't take money from federal lobbyists for powerful defense contractors. As president, my sole priority for defense spending will be protecting the American people. Thanks so much.

**This is the ORIGINAL youtube video of Senator Obama discussing his plans to cripple the US militarily! It comes from the Obama camp itself. The other "In 52 seconds why Obama can never win the general election" is a poor quality, therefore suspicious to some, COPY someone made from this one. The original is titled "Obama-Caucus4Priorities":

Don’t be such pessimists... maybe North Korea is really building a site at which it can host the 2016 Summer Olympics.
N Kor can’t get real active before they pull the trigger since they don’t have much reserves. They’ll have to fire everything they have at once, including sending their motorized south in as coordinated a manner as possible. Three weeks of incredible noise, then silence forever.
Is me or what but is Chia Pet type of dude that don’t give up and just say screw it
What Bush going do probably give more fuel and aid to NK

Chia Head has a fan club right here in the USA. This site is run by a guy named John Paul Cupp. He's even taken a trip to the “people's paradise.”
From what I gather he's somewhere on the Left Coast.
Obama supporter?
Also, this is not the site the Norks launch the ding dong missile from.
