Obama's nuclear free world includes $trillion nuclear buildup

President Obama has been promoting a nuclear free world since taking office in 2009. His most visible stance on that early pledge will come May 27 when he visits the Hiroshima nuclear bombing memorial with Japanese Prime Minister Shinzo Abe to highlight his continued commitment to pursuing the peace and security of a world without nuclear weapons. But talk is cheap when you're planning a trillion dollar modernization of our nuclear capability over the next decade while America continues to crumble. Advocates for nuclear disarmament call this 'Obama's trillion dollar trainwreck.' Once again when it comes to doing the right thing about nuclear weapons, it's 'Do as I say, not as I do." The nuclear weapons suppliers are happy. The generals are happy. The neocons are happy. The rest of us? We just fret as the Doomsday Clock moves a tick or two closer to nuclear midnight.
