How well can a $100B fighter handle 20 cheaper fighters that the enemy can send against it for a fraction of the cost??? Obama seems to say it can shoot them all down at the same time. Romney seems to say that we can afford lots more of them.

seems to me that the other sides aircraft are less of a threat than a few allah fubars blowin em up on the ground, from without or within...

neither of these douches will address that kind of workplace violence...

Something else that’s not been addressed, but was by a poster over on Michelle Malkin’s site, is that if you are willing to live with some significant risk while toting your nuke around, a Hiroshima type “weapon” is then much simplified and easier to make. As Wikipedia puts it “straightforward if not trivial to design”.

This makes Biden and Obama’s assertion that we still have plenty of time for sanctions to work, dubious at best. This may well be the #1 thing that Netanyahu loses sleep about at night: Who believes the more radical Iranians are really worried about the risk whomever might be working with the weapon might face?

Besides, we also have the example of North Korea to learn from: A wrecked economy and starving people didn’t keep them from obtaining The Bomb.

I wish Romney had simply asked his audience “Do you think America and Americans are safer in the world now, than 4 years ago?”
