North Korea was on Tuesday celebrating the 68th birthday of its "peerlessly brilliant" leader, urging talks with Washington as the economy worsens and hundreds of people are reported to have starved to death.
Children received gift bags of sweets and biscuits, and Kim Jong-Il's birthday has also been marked by a synchronised swimming display and a festival celebrating the national "Kimjongilia" flower, state media reported.
A meeting Monday of senior communist party, army and state officials lauded Kim "as the most outstanding political elder and the peerlessly brilliant commander of the present era".

The Deuce is 68!
Has Madeline Albright offered to go over, jump out of his cake, and sing “Happy Birthday Mr President”?

If this s**tbird is what they consider “brilliant”, I’d hate to see what they consider a “dumbass”.

Did he go out and shoot another round of 18 in golf? He’s a God among mortals. Is there anything he can’t do?
