Wow, I never thought I'd consider voting for John Kerry, but after his speech today, how can you not?

[John Kerry] promised on Tuesday to safeguard all the nuclear weapons and materials that exist around the world by the end of his first term if elected.

...

[Kerry] also pledged to reduce existing nuclear weapons stockpiles, halt production of the materials used to make them and end nuclear weapons programs in nations like North Korea and Iran.

I would love to hear how he would actually go about safguarding "all the nuclear weapons and materials" that exist anywhere in the world. I really would love to hear how exactly he would "halt production of materials used to make [nuclear weapons]" and how he would end programs in North Korea and Iran. We all know that North Korea and Iran are just itching to comply with the U.S. and/or the U.N. and since Kim Jong Il is such a rational ruler, how could this plan not work? He continues...

"If we secure all bomb-making materials, ensure that no new materials are produced for nuclear weapons, and end nuclear weapons programs in hostile states like North Korea and Iran, we will dramatically reduce the possibility of nuclear terrorism," he said.

Again, more completely outlandish statments. We (the United States) are going to secure ALL bomb-making materials? We are going to ensure that no new materials are produced for nuclear weapons? And end programs in hostile states? Yeah, IF that happens, of course we dramatically reduce the possibility of nuclear terrorisim. Of course, any sane person has to realize that there is no possible way to do anything that Kerry has outlined. By definition, hostile states are not going to cooperate. And let's see...how can you make a bomb? Well, Tim McVeigh proved you just need fertilizer, so, we have to first outlaw that. Then, we have to safeguard every single stick of TNT and C4 in the world so they can't be used to blow stuff up that we don't want blown up and then we have to police every single square mile on earth to make sure that no one is going to produce weapons-grade uranium or any other element or machine that could be used to create a nuclear weapon.

"Remember. No material. No bomb. No nuclear terrorism," he said.

As they say in a popular commercial, "BRILLIANT!"
