The White House is strongly condemning North Korea's artillery attack against the South Korean island of Yeonpyeong.

In a statement released before dawn Tuesday, Press Secretary Robert Gibbs calls on North Korea to "halt its belligerent action."

He says the United States is "firmly committed" to South Korea's defense, and to the "maintenance of regional peace and stability."

Bingo! When you hate America, like the South Korean youths... then you shouldn’t get our help.

Now, if they eat some humble pie and learn from their mistakes, then I’m okay with helping out... but not until then.

Very true... The sad truth is that people in this country do not realize he is communist without a doubt. What they think that Obama is going to come out and announce oh I’m a communist by the way? LOL! He will NEVER do that.

If you think about the Socialist/Communist groups in the changed from being called these names to being called Liberals. This is since Socialism/Communism has very negative reaction. Today the word liberal has a very negative reaction. So the modern day word is now Progressive.

Now get back to Obama. What does he call himself. Obama says he is a Progressive.

Obama and Gibbs are like 2 of the 3 stooges - throw Biden in and you’ve got the 3rd.

This country would be better of with Moe Howard as president than Baraq Sheik Obama.

The President, known in diplomatic circles as “Mr. Mom-pants,” in a strongly worded statement, warned North Korean leaders: “Hey, you guys, you better stop that.”

It is reported by the sphyncter-licking press that the North Korean leaders have “wet and soiled themselves” at this show of determination and resolve on the part of the President.

NK fires on SK.....SK retaliates....limited to moderate conflaguration on the Korean peninsula.

If the US does NOT help its ROK allies....Look for:

EVERYONE to be emboldened to attack allies of NATO/US. OBAMA YOU PIECE OF SHIT WIMP!

You'll see Iran burn off a low yield nuke.

You'll see Iranian Republican Guard in Afghanistan killing NATO and US troops.

You'll see Indonesia and India (foes of China) backing away from SEATO/US and cozying up with China.

You'll see more brushfire wars in Central Africa, esp. Kenya/Congo with more and more AlQueda types proping up.

You'll see Yemen export terrorism into more brazen attacks.

You'll probably see Syria/Lebanon attack Israel with tacit support from other Arab countries. Hell, even Turkey might get involved.

Russia may take the REST of Georgia or other CIS states.

You'll see FARC and other narco-commie forces make strides and gains in South America.

GAWD....the list is endless....our wet paper sack president is AWOL, probably on a cocaine high while our allies are getting SHELLED.....Does it make you feel better that Chewbacca, the mother in law, Biden, Pelosi, Axlerod or Valarie Jarrett are the ones answering the phone?

From Obama’s remarks to Marines in Seoul on Veterans Day:

Because the Korean War ended where it began geographically, some ended up using the phrase “Die for a Tie” to describe the sacrifices of those who fought here. But as we look around in this thriving democracy and its grateful, hopeful citizens, one thing is clear: This was no tie. This was victory. (Hoaa!) (Applause.)

This was a victory then, and it is a victory today. And 60 years later, a friendship that was forged in a war has become an alliance that has led to greater security and untold progress — not only in the Republic of Korea, but throughout Asia. That is something that everyone here can be extraordinarily proud of.

Seems as if North Korea said “Yeah right...watch this. He wwon’t do anything except write another letter.”

At some point someone has to shoot back. The NKs have already torpedoed a South Korean ship and now live shelling.

Well - Big Bad Gibbs did come out with a statement - I don’t think NK wants to make him mad - everyone saw how he acted in India during a press conference...and no one wants to see that again! Excuse me while I go and puke...

Obamah doesn't have the testicular fortitude to fire a cap-gun.

I suspect The Imam will call upon the pot-belly dictator's long lost love to rub his belly.

That's tellin' them! Why I bet a strongly worded letter from Hillary will follow too!

These NK guys don't know who they're messin' with.



Oh .. hell ....

Obama has ordered a “time-out” for North Korea and 15 minutes on the “naughty step”. That’ll teach them...
