This rocket should have been shot down....by us!
N. Korea launches rocket, defying world pressure

I guess they weren't intimidated by Obama's warning--"You better not launch that rocket or you'll be sorry! I mean it!" He should have mentioned if they did it he was going to give them a knuckle sandwich--that might have done the trick!

Hey, I wonder if this is the test that Biden mentioned during the campaign. The one where everyone was going to think Obama was really messing up. But now that I think about it, that sounds like pretty much everything that has happened since he took office...

Isn't it nice to know that we have a leader who's voice isn't heard around the world anymore.

Newt said this morning he would have opted to do something, which Gov. Sanford agreed with in principle. The former Speaker spoke that are five available options and that an actual nucluer blast could do serious damage to electronics and communication equipment. Anyway IMHO, the U.N. Security Council is about as worthless as (four letter word) on a boar hog.

It's too bad those people don't think "Gee, we're all starving, getting our one chicken a month per family member, but our government is willing to spend money on rockets".
Did you know there are hardly any birds in N. Korea? They get eaten faster than they can procreate.

It is still hard for me to believe theat a country in this day and age, can provide the information that the governorment only wants it's people to hear.

like...it was launched into space and is playing the Korean anthem. really?

The grip of control that holds them must be tremendous.

Serious brain-washing. Plus no technology there. And you get put in prison when you do anything that isn't for the government.
And anything brought in from the outside will be declared poisonous...so like if food is dropped in by parachute, the government will tell the people that if they eat it they will die.
I've always said we need to drop thousands of laptops with charged long-lasting batteries, and have wi-fi towers set up around the perimeter of the country borders...let them see the real world.

Issues like this have been long standing in North Korea. Seriously, for years.

So, get off the Obama bashing for a freakin change. Every damn world problem is NOT his fault, and to keep blaming it all on him looks ignorant, naive, angry and desperate.

For once. Please. Something DOES need to be done about North Korea. But they haven't listened to ANYONE for a very, very long time.

OMG. Someone actually pays attention to what Newt Gingrich has to say.


Mark Sanford? Really? Gov of the "we don't want bailout $$ (based on principal) even though my state has been on federal welfare for years."
