I have been reporting on American Thinker for weeks that North Korea was going to launch a rocket that could carry a nuclear warhead -- possibly as far as Alaska or Hawaii.
President Obama seems to have just gotten that message. And his response to the North Korean nuclear threat should scare the living daylights out of rational thinking people everywhere.
Here is how the UK Times reported Obamas reaction to the North Korean missile launch:
President Obama faced his first big test on security yesterday after North Korea launched a missile designed to carry a warhead as far as Alaska. He said that such provocation underscored the need for action against the defiance of a rogue nuclear power and the spread of weapons across the world. The threat of North Korea acquiring nuclear missile technology, he said, matters to all people, everywhere.
He told a crowd in Prague: We cannot succeed in this endeavour alone but we can lead it, we can start it. The US President promised to seek immediate Senate ratification of the Comprehensive Test Ban Treaty, begin talks with Russia on cutting warheads and call for better controls to prevent terrorists or rogue regimes obtaining fissile material.
Did you read that last paragraph? Obama will stop North Korea from building and launching nuclear weapons by signing a new treaty with the Russians that will limit the number of our own nuclear weapons.
Sometimes naïveté starts to slip slowly towards madness. If limiting our own nuclear arsenal is Obamas idea of smart power diplomacy
the United States is in deep, deep trouble.

What’s that “Casa Bianca” book cover translate to?
You’d think he’d at least care enough about his daughters’ futures to want to protect them.
something like “ a hussien to the white house”
Naw, they're only women.

President Obama seems to have just gotten that message,no kidding the idiot is a danger to the world.
Well, the Times has it bass ackwards. The 'big test' was before the launch & the Idjit in Chief flunked big time. Not only did he flunk, he was a no show--toddling off to Europe to kiss Queenie & bask in his own celebrity.
