Well researched, informative article on Republican representative Dave Hobson's opposition to the Bush's attempt to expand the nation's nuclear weapons complex. The report provides extensive factual evidence, and quotes a range of different sources and offers useful context. Good coverage of an important issue.
Even-handed and informative, this is great investigative journalism. The sort of story I wish I saw more of. I learned a lot!
Questioning effectiveness of "bunker buster" bombs, or perhaps even the entire nuclear strategy, has been anathema in national security debates until now. This representative's bird-dogging the issue on need and cost is commendable. The article shows the mind-set of militaristic ideologues are detrimental to our standing in the world.
