Tom Daschle, infuriated that Senate Republicans failed to answer his Master's bidding, has promised to make the Comprehensive Test Ban Treaty a campaign issue.
I can only pray that he will.
I would like for the Liberals to explain to me why, under the Clinton Administration, the White House ignored China's repeated and flagrant violations of every nonproliferation treaty they ever signed.
I would like for the Liberals to explain to me why, after the United States successfully tested an anti-missile defense system, the President refused to implement it unless he could share that technology with Russia and China.
I would like for the Liberals to explain to me why, at the start of the Clinton Administration, intelligence and National Defense reports included China as a mere footnote...whereas now, they receive top billing as a potential threat.
I would like for Liberals to explain to me why the Clinton Commerce Department allowed valuable dual-use technology to walk out of the door and into the hands of known Chicom front companies, with little or no end-use verification.
I would like for the Liberals to explain to me why, after the Clinton Administration depleted our stockpile of conventional weapons, they feel a need to now limit our stockpile of nuclear weapons.
I would like for the Liberals to explain to me why we are shelling out over $444,000,000 to sustain Russia's military, but cannot maintain fleet readiness standards for our own Navy.
I would like for the Liberals to explain to me why they are pushing to reduce our stockpile of nuclear weapons at a time when rogue nations are developing theirs.
I would like for the Liberals to explain to me why the Senate Republicans' unwillingness to believe a known liar and contemptible perjurer is suddenly construed as "threatening America."
I would like for Liberals to explain to me why this President has implemented International Border Zones. I was under the impression America is a sovereign country.
I would like for Liberals to explain to me why putting America's defensive interests first would lead to the spread of nuclear weapons.
I would like for Liberals to explain to me why Clinton's massive document declassification and dump is not considered a threat to the security of the United States, but insuring the solvency of our nuclear arsenal is.
I would like for Liberals to explain to me why, after Congress spent months restructuring the responsibilities and delegation of authority at our national nuclear labs, the White House decided to throw the whole thing into the air by realigning powers prior to the release of their recommendations.
I would like for Liberals to explain to me why the Reno Injustice Department did not try Peter Lee for espionage, after he gave a detailed, unauthorized lecture to the Communist Chinese about our nuclear submarine tracking technology.
In other words, I would like for the Liberals to explain to me why they stood silent while this President did everything in his power to destroy our country and reward proliferation, but condemn the Senate Republicans for not joining in the destruction.
Please, please make it a campaign issue.
I dare you.
