Bush gets permission to use the Bomb

Looks like George W now has a plan to avoid future military quagmires like the one in Iraq. If he thinks a country is about to use Weapons of Mass Destruction against the USA he can now make a preemptive nuclear strike instead of invading the country.

This has two advantages over the current Bush military strategy. Firstly no bad press when thousands of troops die after you declare the war has ended. Secondly no embarrassing moments when the public realise there were no WMDs in the first place, the nuclear devastation can be hailed as 100% successful in destroying the phantom weapons.

Apparently he can also use nuclear weapons if there is an

"imminent attack from adversary biological weapons that only effects from nuclear weapons can safely destroy."

Better stop talking about the risk of disease from polluted flood waters in New Orleans then.
