John Bolton is So 1950′s

OMG, is Bush-guy John Bolton (who Bush appointed as the U.S. Ambassador to the United States in, by the way, a recess appointment) playing politics — probably — or does he truly believe that the Obama administration’s “new nuclear arms reduction treaty with Russia” reflects “stunning naivety” and is a threat to American sovereignty?
(What Bolton means by “sovereignty” is that we can use our nukes to bully and threaten other countries because we can vaporize anyone we want. That’s the 1950′s version of the world and Bolton is still stuck in it.)
Fact is, the new treaty means that both the U.S. and Russia will reduce their nuclear stockpiles by 30%. The U.S. currently has approximately 10,000 nuclear weapons. Seems to me that with an arsenal of approximately 6,800 nukes our “sovereignty” is just fine John.
