As to that last - it's worse than that.
With the calibre of 'advisors' and his own Messianic aims - the problem isn't about the Dubya cabal using nukes in that (almost unimaginable extremis - less'n his opponent were Russia..)
He's already started on research for "smaller bite-sized" nukes - a perfectly clear indication that his aim is to finally eradicate the idea of nuclear weapons as Last-resort Strategic weapons. Obviously he wishes to make these seem to be just an ordinary part of our enforcement arsenal.. for any recalcitrant State he has on his list of of UnAmerican-type candidates for reeducation and assimilation. Don't worry pretty-little heads here, folks - it's just another 'smart munition' in the service of a succession of Wars For Peace.

Natch we will not see this Grandiose Plan on the Repo Party slate, but a psych-inventory of this cabal reveals the mindset. Far-Rightfulness isn't so merely cute an epithet any more. (Too lazy to find a link to the Org which has contacts in ME and seeks to 'facilitate' The End Times cha cha cha. These are *serious* Loonies.)
But please to call it merely "personal religious expression" - never mind that such a POV places all of humanity as fodder for megalomaniacal wet dreams. We always worried about a psycho-Officer launching one of those Obscenities; not about a psycho-F\ufffdhrer & Staff.
