US President Barack Obama is to call for an end to nuclear arms and efforts to stop the spread of the technology behind them, at an historic UN session.
In the first security council meeting chaired by the US, Mr Obama will present a resolution seeking "a world without nuclear weapons".
The meeting comes a day after Mr Obama's debut UN speech, in which he warned of a nuclear arms race.
It also comes amid growing concerns over Iran's nuclear ambitions.
The draft resolution reaffirms the council's commitment "to seek a safer world for all and to create the conditions for a world without nuclear weapons," the Associated Press reported.
It does not specifically mention countries by name, such as North Korea and Iran, but reaffirms previous Security Council resolutions relating to their nuclear plans.
Iran's nuclear program has been criticized by the US and five nations who are set to hold talks next week.
Iran says its nuclear ambitions are for peaceful energy purposes, but others fear it is developing weapons.

“Why cant we hide our weapons in case they attack us?”
Because the MSM will play BLABBERMOUTH.
Barack, you moron.
You give incompetent idiots a bad name.
Nukes are not Chicago gats and rods in an East Side neighborhood.
Would you disarm the police as part of a gun control program?
Leave our nukes alone. All that will come from nuclear disarmament will be a WMD attack on our cities.
Obama and his commie advisers don't do what they do out of "incompetence" or "naivety". They do what they do DELIBERATELY in order to destroy the U.S. as we know it. He has spent his entire life around people who seek the destruction of America and Capitalism.

Worth repeating.
(Sarcasm)
Given that certain countries will keep making nukes no matter what,
And that making nukes is a large carbon footprint,
And that destroying nukes is a large carbon footprint,
Therefore, in the interest of reducing carbon footprints world wide, just give our nukes to those certain countries.
And all the enviro nazis will be happy until the big bright flash...

"The supposed quietude of a good man allures the ruffian; while on the other hand, arms like laws, discourage and keep the invader and the plunderer in awe, and preserve order in the world as well as property. The same balance would be preserved were all the world destitute of arms, for all would be alike; but since some will not, others dare not lay them aside. Horrid mischief would ensue were one half the world deprived of the use of them." - Thomas Paine
Such mischief is exactly what the marxist, Obama, will bring upon America.
Now that wouldn't be fair, would it?
Hey, BO, here’s a thought: why don’t you just revive the Kellogg-Briand Pact?
Your idea has about the same likelhood of success, and at least Kellogg-Briand was more encompassing.
"...The narcissist rarely admits to a weakness, ignorance, or deficiency. He filters out information to the contrary a cognitive impairment with serious consequences. Narcissistic are likely to unflinchingly make inflated and inane claims about their sexual prowess, wealth, connections, history, or achievements.
All this is mighty embarrassing to the narcissist's nearest, dearest, colleagues, friends, neighbours, or even mere on-lookers. The narcissist's tales are so patently absurd that he often catches people off-guard. Behind his back, the narcissist is derided and mockingly imitated. He fast makes a nuisance and an imposition of himself in every company.
But the narcissist's failure of the reality test can have more serious and irreversible consequences. Narcissists, unqualified to make life-and-death decisions often insist on rendering them. Narcissists pretend to be economists, engineers, or medical doctors when they are not. But they are not con-artists in the classic, premeditated sense. They firmly believe that, though self-taught at best, they are more qualified than even the properly accredited sort. Narcissists believe in magic and in fantasy. They are no longer with us.....
We are so screwed.
A nation can survive its fools, and even the ambitious. But it cannot survive treason from within. An enemy at the gates is less formidable, for he is known and carries his banner openly. But the traitor moves amongst those within the gate freely, his sly whispers rustling through all the alleys, heard in the very halls of government itself. For the traitor appears not a traitor; he speaks in accents familiar to his victims, and he wears their face and their arguments, he appeals to the baseness that lies deep in the hearts of all men. He rots the soul of a nation, he works secretly and unknown in the night to undermine the pillars of the city, he infects the body politic so that it can no longer resist. A murderer is less to be feared.

Speech in the Roman Senate - 42 BC
As hideously bad as Carter was (monstrously bad) obozo is FAR worse. Several times worse.
The optimist in me says that at least the country is waking up, and LORD willing it won't be too late to turn this around.
Idiocy
Cheers!
