Not entirely safe with the US being a nuclear power and having the biggest military in the world. There's always the (remote?) possibility that a religious nutter parks his ass in the White House and starts a policy that makes shrub look like Einstein. Both houses are already contaminated after all.
Hey, we have to use those nuclear weapons, as otherwise, it will be the biggest waste of money in the history of the world.
