By Gawd, we want someone ready to press that button without thinking! Sheesh.

"That boy's finger..."? Sounds like a derogatory remark to me. A remark Davis will likely rue having made.

He said in his remarks at the GOP dinner that he also recently participated in a "highly classified, national security simulation" with Obama.</DIV>
"I'm going to tell you something: That boy's finger does not need to be on the button," Davis said. "He could not make a decision in that simulation that related to a nuclear threat to this country."
