Excerpt-

SEOUL, Aug. 26 (Yonhap) -- North Korea on Tuesday said it has halted disablement of its nuclear power plants as Washington failed to remove it from the U.S. list of state sponsors of terrorism.

The communist nation's Foreign Ministry said measures to halt the process were taken as of Aug. 14.

Yawn.

NK is due to implode: either by a revolution, or all its citizenry starving to death.

Ho hum. Same song and dance.

Step 1: Nokor claims disarmament

Step 2: Nokors laugh behind UN’s back while building another hidden bunker to build more nukes.

Step 3: Receive more aid money from Uncle Sam.

Step 4: Once they get hold of money, start making nukes again.

And now the canal is managed by a Chinese Corporation controlled by the Army of the People's Republic of China.

Such ignorant foolishness , Carter gave it back, Clinton signed it over.

Now we have to take it all over again.

The USA no longer controls the Panama Canal. Red China does.

It can be destroyed with one massive explosion, dividing the Pacific fleets from the Atlantic fleets of the Allied powers.

I’m not sure we’ll ever have a president with the nads to retake the canal we built.

Who?

I think both major parties have been denuded of anything resembling b@lls of steel. Even if we had such a president, a divided Congress will probably be thinking about their re-election rather than what is best for the nation. The only way i can think of such an act happening is if a major event occurs that brings the nation as one (e.g. how 9/11 brought the entire nation together, at least for a short while). Barring that, I cannot think of a president (even mcCain, and definitely not Bush) having the b@lls to retake the canal, and even if such a person came up I doubt congress would support it (or the voting population for that matter ...do they even know where Panana is) unless a major seismic event occurred.

Too true.
Always funny to ask college grads asked if they can point out France, Columbia, or N.Y. state and they haven’t a clue.
