Obama shares size of U.S. nuclear stockpile with the world
Washington Examiner ^ | April 1, 2016 | Nicole Duran

President Obama boasted Friday about his administration's exemplary record on transparency related to nuclear materials, and cited as an example his decision to share U.S. security protocols with the world, along with information about the size of the U.S.'s highly enriched uranium stockpile.

As of Sept. 30, 2013 the nation had 585.6 metric tons of highly enriched uranium, a fact that hasn't been declassified in 15 years, Obama noted during the summit's opening session. The last public figure was 740.7 metric tons, and the difference shows the U.S. has reduced its stockpile by more than 20 percent.

"This type of information sharing … is an important part of the effort to strengthen global nuclear security," the White House stated in releasing the data. "The value of transparency has been highlighted by the United States throughout the Nuclear Security Summit process."

My disgust isn’t with him - it’s with all the dumbed-down, politically-correct Marxist idiots who put him in office not once, but twice.

But really more at the Marxist/atheists who control and fill our government propaganda machine - the education system and who gave us the idiots that gave us Obama.

Even more the passive “conservatives” and RINO’s who for 3 generations have laid back and let the Marxists take over and do whatever they want with no resistance whatsoever all the while serving their own selfish interests and padding their own bank accounts. The corruption is beyond description or imagination.

We are simply reaping what we have sown - and we are far past the turning point. America is over. The only question is, how long before they begin to imprison conservatives EN MASSE for our beliefs - they are already doing so in small numbers.......

I believe the military has black programs that even the president isn’t privy to......just for the possibility that an a*****e is elected and starts to damage US security. When the SHTF, they can pull out these secret programs and rain Hell on adversaries, making “president” a*****e look like a train hit him or her.

The secrets revealed and those that will be revealed after this bastard has left office account for less than 0.1% of his secrets given and sold to our enemies. .

He’s definitely on something. Look at his facial expression... that sneer. I know he’s a narcissistic, but this behavior goes beyond his love of self. He’s under the influence of some illegal substance.

Carter, Clinton, Obozo...is it any wonder why the rest of the world doesn't take us seriously.

Carter, truly inept. Clinton, truly embarrassed our nation. Obozo, truly is an impostor traitor.

Taxpayers Billed $1.4 Million for Obama’s Argentina Trip

President tangoed, bashed capitalism during visit

President Barack Obama’s two-day visit to Argentina, where he tangoed and downplayed the differences between capitalism and communism, cost taxpayers nearly $1.4 million.

The president traveled to Argentina last week after his two-day stop in Cuba. The visit racked up substantial costs for hotels, transportation, and advance bathroom maintenance, according to government contracts signed by the State Department and Department of Homeland Security.

Lodging for the president and White House staff totaled $115,588, while conference rooms cost $35,584. Another contract for hotel rooms cost $31,585.

U.S. Secret Service costs associated with the trip included $120,782 for hotel rooms at the Hyatt Park in Buenos Aires and $707,801 for transportation.

Use of Marine One, the presidential helicopter, during Obama’s trip cost $44,611. Other transportation costs included contracts worth $68,597, $23,304, $4,789, $8,212, and $24,955.

Transportation costs for journalists traveling with the president as part of the White House Correspondents Association totaled $141,794.

Finally, a contract signed March 9 for “repair and maintenance for pool bathrooms” for the president’s visit to Argentina cost $50,218.
