Horse gone, Bush to close barn door
WaPo:
Too little, too late. He didn't fund the program to buy up loose Russian nukes and fund their scientists (so they didn't go sell their services on the black market), he didn't secure Iraq's loose nuclear materials in the general post-war clusterfuck, and his friends, the Pakistanis are playing both ends against the middle as hard and fast as they can.
Meanwhile, Bush has no credibility with anyone because of his clumsy lying on WMDs.
Tell me again why Bush and the Republicans are so good on anyone's security except their own? I keep forgetting.
UPDATE Yikes!!! Thanks to alert reader SNR

Interesting, if true, and if true, God help us all.
President Bush intends to lay out a broad strategy today to stop the spread of nuclear weapons by cracking down on a burgeoning black market

this:
A pan-Arab newspaper said Sunday that the al Qaeda organization led by Osama bin Laden (news - web sites) bought tactical nuclear weapons from Ukraine in 1998 and is storing them in safe places for possible use.
There was no independent corroboration of the report, which appeared in the newspaper al-Hayat under an Islamabad dateline and cited sources close to al Qaeda, which the United States blames for the attacks of Sept. 11, 2001.
Interesting, if true, and if true, God help us all.
