Martha Bridegam sends along this from the Federal Register:
Because the proliferation of weapons of mass destruction and the means of delivering them continues to pose an unusual and extraordinary threat to the national security, foreign policy, and economy of the United States, the national emergency first declared on November 14, 1994, must continue in effect beyond November 14, 2006. In accordance with section 202(d) of the National Emergencies Act (50 U.S.C. 1622(d)), I am continuing for 1 year the national emergency declared in Executive Order 12938, as amended.
Hey, there, irony fans, don’t you just love it? By invading non-nucular Iraq and not invading nucular North Korea and coddling the world’s foremost nucular peddler, Pakistani president Pervez Musharraf, Bush has done more to hasten the spread of atomic weapons throughout the world than any man in history. It will take decades, perhaps generations, to set the world back on the path to sanity.
