Tag Archives: New START Treaty
START and the Spirit of Frank Marshall Davis
When the Senate ratified the recent Strategic Arms Reduction Treaty (START) during the lame duck session, the only reason it got the 67 needed votes was because thirteen Republican Senators believed Barack Obama when he assured them that language in the preamble linking the buildup of offensive nuclear weapons with missile defense systems would not [...]
Obama’s Foreign Policy In 2011: Not ‘Hope’ But Hopeless
The new Start Treaty embodies, in my judgment, the emerging mood in American security policy circa 2011. As the preamble to the treaty indicates the Russians will have a veto over the deployment of anti-missile systems. Despite President Obama’s assurance to the Senate that this will not be a unilateral concession, the Russian diplomats see [...]
START: Politically ‘Creative’ Spending Estimates Cloud Evaluation
The US Senate gave its assent to ratification of the new START treaty but added significant new policy requirements that may require the US to actually improve its nuclear arsenal and modernize its nuclear enterprise even as we reduce our overall level of deployed nuclear weapons by one-third. Not unlike the build-down theories discussed during [...]
START the Damage Control
Last week’s rushed vote on New START in the lame-duck session of the Senate represented that body’s abandonment of its constitutional obligations to provide to “advise and consent” on treaties, despite the best efforts Sen. Jon Kyl and some of his colleagues to prevent the Senate from being reduced to such a “rubber stamp”. The [...]
Merry Christmas, Comrade Putin
In its Thursday edition, the Washington Times framed its report on the Senate’s ratification of the New START Treaty with two photos. The first was of President Obama doing what he does best – talking – at his press conference marking the end of a lame-duck session in which he and his allies on Capitol [...]
Senator McConnell Says ‘No’ to New START
On CNN this morning, the Senate’s Republican Leader, Sen. Mitch McConnell, announced his opposition to the so-called New START arms control treaty currently being debated by his chamber. According to a rush transcript by Politico , Sen. McConnell told “State of the Union” host Candy Crowley:
I’ve decided I cannot support the treaty. I think the [...]
Senator Jim DeMint: The START 2 Treaty Does Limit U.S. Missile Defense
“This is a major arms control agreement and, in my mind, has some very serious flaws and can actually make the world more dangerous if we’re not careful.” - Senator Jim DeMint
The Obama administration repeatedly claims that their negotiation of arms control with the Russians does not limit U.S. missile defense. According to Senator DeMint, [...]
John Bolton, Rick Santorum, Tom Price, Trent Franks & Others Oppose New START
A formidable array of current and former leaders in the Senate and House of Representatives, together with top nuclear weapons and arms control experts, came together yesterday to oppose President Obama’s New START Treaty and his insistence that it be approved at once. In a Capitol [...]
Playing Politics with National Security on New START Treaty
It’s a full court press by the Obama Administration. The goal: to hurry the Senate into approving the stalled nuclear arms treaty, the New START Treaty, with Russia during the Lame Duck session. This treaty is flawed, yet the Administration and allies in the Senate want to rush passage, because they are [...]
