" For any President but Bush, this would be a front-burner item. In the corrupt Russia, one of those "stockpiled" nukes could easily be sold to the wrong people. More of a danger than Iran.."

But, Bush looked deep into Putin's eyes and saw a soul mate.

Were they holding hands at the time?

Those are due to be dismantled. It's a sketchy estimate anyway. There are other sources that show the count much lower for Russia. They are behind. Still, a LOT less than 45000!

The chart of nukes was updated in January of this year and the numbers were done up by the Federation of American Scientists.

And frankly, Chris, I never saw that 45K number when I was looking up this stuff.
