What Happened to Preserve, Protect, and Defend?

American Thinker

How  does a president of the United States whose allegiance is to his country  knowingly and in plain sight sabotage his nation’s defenses?  Until  recently, the discussions of severe military cuts remained in the appropriate  realm of working groups, and few seriously considered Obama’s radical campaign  promises to eliminate nuclear weapons from the U.S. arsenal to be of any real  validity.  After all, many Democrat presidential contenders before Obama  had pandered to pacifists and the armies of the naïve swelling the Democratic  base in order to get elected.  But none of these individuals actually took proactive steps to completely remove  America’s nuclear triad from the list of strategic options.
