Sony Pictures initially called off the release citing threats of terror attacks against U.S. movie theaters. Obama criticized Sony's decision, and the movie has opened this week.

On Saturday, the North's powerful National Defense Commission, the country's top governing body led by Kim, said that Obama was behind the release of "The Interview." It described the movie as illegal, dishonest and reactionary.

"Obama always goes reckless in words and deeds like a monkey in a tropical forest," an unidentified spokesman at the commission's Policy Department said in a statement carried by the official Korean Central News Agency.

Whew, man, could you imagine what might have happened had we not had a president who is a Nobel peace prize winner? Man, they’d REALLY be ticked.

I am a musician and the meenkey is a businessman. He doesn’t tell me what to play and I don’t tell him what to do with his money.
But I can say to you, I do not deserve this signed photograph of Sean Connery. He has a rather hideous lantern jaw for a Scot.

PLEASE!

Do NOT insult monkeys (or wolves) by comparing them to Obola! (Nor Kerry.)

We ARE sensitive to our wildlife over here.

I am truly sorry. But can I offer that perhaps, based on the prominent ears, that it might be that his mother was a Loving Cup?
Guess you must live outside the US, because the only monkeys we have here are in the zoo (or possibly in the government).

I suppose there might have been a time, long ago, when I would have taken umbrage at a characterization of this type of the President.

Now...I find myself thinking..."Well, now that I think about it...the North Koreans do kinda have a point..."
