Very interesting letter he drafted though in that he stated clearly they have the equivalent of 20,000 nuclear warheads....so that is quite a bit to worry about should we just cut them off and they look for another "investor". I can only hope that since this was drafted in 1993 that means they are almost at the end of their conversion of the materials and only have a bit left.
It's not the 20,000 nuclear warheads that Russia posseses that I'm worried about. it's the ONE warhead in the back of a BMW.

It is more because we are supposed to be buying it from them according to the agreement. Mainly what this order does is keeps the material from falling into another parties hands due to the financial woes of USEC. Basically what it amounts to is keeping the process of breaking the weapon grade material down without Russia worrying that we tanked the USEC to get our hands on it for other purposes. Nothing really all that sinister going on.

Well let's start off with some clarification then:
There is a difference between a National Emergency and a State of Emergency, though not many here seem to know this or even notice the difference.
From the Military Dictionary a National Emergency means: "(DOD) A condition declared by the President or the Congress by virtue of powers previously vested in them that authorize certain emergency actions to be undertaken in the national interest. Action to be taken may include partial, full, or total mobilization of national resources.
National Emergency Powers
fpc.state.gov...…
These delegations or grants of power authorize the President to meet the problems of governing effectively in times of crisis. Under the powers delegated by such statutes, the President may seize property, organize and control the means of production, seize commodities, assign military forces abroad, institute martial law, seize and control all transportation and communication, regulate the operation of private enterprise, restrict travel, and, in a variety of ways, control the lives of United States citizens.

Obama is just covering all of the bases so he can try to declare some kind of emergency when his fake self gets thrown out by the voters. If he does not declare over this it will be something else. And if all else fails he will order the satanists in the CIA to blow something up.
