THIS is the best commentary I can imagine on Bush's insane lust for nuclear war.

1. I'm afraid we just don't care enough anymore to even be moved by that
As long as it's not us getting blown up and irradiated, who give a flying :( People can't even be bothered to read a five paragraph article regarding such subjects any longer. It's disheartening.

4. He was a kook, but a likeable kook.
I knew him in later years.

8. At least Goldwater was honest about his intentions in Vietnam
Johnson ran as the peace candidate and 58,000 young Americans died.

3. A stab from the past.
And my naive mind thought that nuke crap had long past. Silly me.

Thanx for the reminder.
