The plot so far...

You claimed I made an "equivalence" arguement. You asserted that there are "good nations" that it is ok to have nukes. I think you implied that Brazil was one of those good nations.

I assert that it is a slippery slope and that if we start sliding down it, everyone will have nukes in 100 years.

I do not say, and I did not say, and I never will say that "conservatives are for everyone having the bomb". [I do note how temptingly easy to refute such a statement would appear to you, though.]

I will cheerfully point out that "everyone having the bomb" is the ultimate outcome of policies that conservatives favor. That if it becomes ok for half the nations on earth to develope nukes, then you guarantee that everyone will have them. That the only way to support non-prolif is to support it accross-the-board. Anything less is a guarantee of failure.

I wonder if we will support Brazil's refusal to allow inspections of their centerfuges. And if, when the truth comes out eventually, their centerfuge tech is traced to our good buddies, the Pakis?
