Moral Equivalency

Obama and the Russians are going to limit the number of nuclear weapons each has. The United States reducing nuclear weapons is a good thing, maybe. The moral equivalency which tells you that the United States and Russia equally reducing the number of weapons is a comparable thing is more liberal craziness. Russia uses its arsenal to threaten and dominate nations. The United States uses its weapons as a deterrent. Calling it the same is no difference in saying a gun in the hand of a police officer is the same as a gun in the hand of a violent criminal.
