Yee, Haw! Let's Nuke North Korea!

My far flung corespondents have something to say about his raptureness Kim Il Jong. From Iowa Andy:

Where is the media? They are missing the story of the century.

The rogue nuclear-capable nation of N Korea has once again shown its rabid dog proclivities to wreak havoc on the unsuspecting.

The US is sending a carrier into this morass. What better target for a N Korean short range nuclear missile?

And Kim Jong can then go out in a blaze of Armageddon.

California Bob replies:

You know, I myself was thinking, too, that Kim Jong Il has been getting increasingly reckless lately, and wondered if he wasn't planning on going out in style -- or as Tom Lehrer put it, "suffused with an incandescent glow."

I'd like to know where all the bigmouth war-mongers are. Oh sure, they were all bluster when it came to the mortal threats posed by Grenada, and Panama, and Iraq. But with a real problem like North Korea -- and I consider North Korea one of the tragedies of the modern geo-political spectrum -- it's sort of, "OK, we'll shut up about that, we don't want any trouble...nothing that would actually start to impact Budweiser consumption stateside." Cowards.

And that's why I vote republican. Because the second Roman empire is nearing the end of days, and I want these morons to witness the consequences of their idiocy.

Or not. I don't care.

Michigan Mike follows up:

As a nation, we are now obsessed with our own internal political warfare. All else is of no consequence.

The truth of effective international relations, industrial economics, environmental sustainability, and human improvement will now be argued in the public forum by CNN pundits who think that "He spent a purr-fect afternoon with his safely rescued cat." is a clever pun.
