It’s just, “Some damn thing in the Balkans.”

Keeping my eye on this one.

Those cheers you are hearing are coming from the White House and the “other side of the aisle”.

Yes, and the recipient is ill equipped to take the call.

The jackass in chief is a joke.

North Koreans are now saying that a flock of birds attacked the ship. You can’t make this up.

I thought the boat sunk itself, kinda like how all those GOP Local HQ windows just broke on their own.

When one country sinks another country's warship at sea, unprovoked...war often ensues.

Will we honor our treaty with the South?

South Korea is denying that North Korean military action caused this ship to sink.

Actually, the 'war' part came first. They have been officially 'at war' for a while.

No, long slip, much bigger and newer, very sad situation and we will send nothing on this in the way of a response. Perhaps a letter and a stern timeout. Lets call Team America...our only hope is Gumby and Pockey dammit.

I don’t think thats the right vessel... my guess is the sunken ship was one of the Pohan class corvettes, the most common & fits the description in the story.

I wonder if we will ever know what really happened? Did Obama or Hillary call and urge that South Korea exercise restraint? Is the South unwilling to do what they would be forced to do if they admitted the ship was sunk by hostile action?
