Bush is controlled by the right wing and the right wing has never wanted the ABM Treaty, it limits the capability to expand weapons programs and thus feed the defense pork barrel. They feed on war and beating the crap out of the enemy and they enemies in abscence of real enmemies. Right now the US is back in the fifties and sixties engaged in a nuclear arms race with anyone who cares to try.

It is interesting that Rumsfeld on a TV interview the other day boasting about the need for a shield admitted that it is only good against "rogue states" (whoever they might be) and would not be effective against a country with significant launch capability like Russia. What does he and Bush think China is going to do but develop significant launch capability? Here we go again, trashed all the good work of Nixon, Ford, Carter, Reagan, Bush, Clinton into the toilet
