“Obama is a pushover, that for sure is widely known in East Asia at this time, amongst enemies and allies alike.”
I have a funny feeling about this. I despise Obama and “enlightened” approach to foreign policy, but I believe he is smart enough to know that a show of weakness against a nuclear-armed foe will result in a one-term Presidency.
Think about how many powerful weapons he takes from the hands of his political opponents is he shows a big pair of onions when and if North Korea tests him.
He’s calculating that way. We on the right shouldn’t box ourselves into a corner by insisting we KNOW what he would do - we don’t. Even matters of war and peace are just political chips in his game - the REAL purpose of which is to socialize America.
That's one the problems with electing such a neophyte to his first executive office - nobody knows how he'll handle a problem like this. Kennedy almost started a nuclear war over the Bay of Pigs. We may or may not get lucky this time too.
Two words:

Good post.
The questions of does he have the onions and will he use them are one part.
The other is the incredible calculation of how to use power. Blockade, selective strikes on missile sites, massive pre-emptive strike on Seoul-targeted artillery (where success is at best a maybe… Miscalculation will be measured in millions of lives.
If Obama has and decides to use his onions, the hard part has only begun.
