I have always felt that you can find core truths in many places, sometimes even in very unusual places, but that doesn’t take away from their truth. The line from the Movie 'Open Range'; where Charlie says: "There's somethings that gnaw on a man worse than dieing." is one such core truth I have found in a movie. There are many others.

The one I want you to think of now is from the movie 'The Dark Knight'; Where Alfred Pennyworth says: "Well, because he thought it was good sport. Because some men aren't looking for anything logical, like money. They can't be bought, bullied, reasoned, or negotiated with. Some men just want to watch the world burn."

Don't think there is something as simple as insanity going on. We, and South Korea, think it is worth the effort while he is a new untested leader to try to create a North Korean spring. He is reacting to this. North Korea might continue, it might collapse under his leadership, or it might explode.

What total rubbish from the North Koreans! My Dad and a couple of uncles were there six decades ago and they stood with a multitude of brave Americans against the millions of Red China in addition to what North Korea could muster. We will stand against them again. Just have to get rid of that treasonous Marxist maggot in the WH!



Where are the survivors of the massacre at Benghazi? The silence of the Obama Regime on this question is deafening!

“They should clearly know that in the era of Marshal Kim Jong Un, the greatest-ever commander, all things are different from what they used to be in the past.”

Do we really have to be afraid of a nation that calls its leader “the greatest-ever commander”?
It’s like something out of a comic book.

The “dear respected Marshal Kim Jong Un, brilliant commander of Mt. Paektu,” needs a JDAM with his name written all over it...soonest.

I always like Jack Nicholson as the Joker in Batman: “What’s the world comin’ to when a guy dressed in a bat suit gets all of my press?”

I like how communists are heavy on adjectives. The anti-reunification hostile imperialist warmongering offensive enemies of the free People of the Revolutionary Republic of the most sacred North Korea.

By the way, if I see any NKoes waltzing around outside, I’ll send you the photos of me feeding them in trade for their weaponry and ammo.

There have been American and South Korean kiss ups, negotiations and aid or trade deals with the Norks for years.

The old style Nixon-Kissinger detente is the wrong answer to them.

The communist economy of NK can’t survive unless it is propped up by other countries.

I hope real sanctions are finally kicking in on them because the Nork system may slowly be forced into collapse just like the USSR was.

North Korea’s government is crazy, they’ve used assassination squads, bombs, kidnapping whatever to advance their agenda.

We’ll have to wait and see.

The Korean War in 1950 started early on a Sunday morning (4AM). That was Saturday afternoon our time.

The ridiculous communist faggot foreigner in the WH is finally being called out by another fellow traveler in NK.

He has correctly determined that the US, with this degenerate CINC calling the shots and doing everything possible to weaken the US military, won't defend South Korea.

This was predictable from the second the Kenyan was reelected by the retarded American electorate, and is just the beginning of multiple incursions against the USA by enemies foreign and domestic.

It's the reason why the Founders didn't put a right to vote in the Constitution and specifically stated only NBC could be POTUS.

This is the beginning of the end.

All I know is that all the cities they threatened to target are bastions of liberalism.

Hmmmm....maybe I could take a speed boat over to NK and provoke them with a good ... full ... MOON!!!??? :)
