The Samsons of Nuclear Winter

Sarah Palin and her ilk think our country's nuclear prowess should be wielded as an intimidating force to get others to do as commanded, knowing full well that such commands would have no democracy-oriented or moral import, but would be based solely on power and naked dominance. Do they not realize that detonating nuclear bombs, which are much stronger than the Hiroshima and Nagasaki bombs of 1945, would cause a nuclear winter that would have devastating effects on the entire planet, which of course means also on themselves? Anybody who wants to be Samson shouldn't be anywhere near the reins of national power, which is why odious politicians like Palin and Newt Gingrich should never be president.
