How nice. I picture Obama being super busy with golfing and everything, but it looks like he's hoping to make some time to maybe call this guy and chit chat.

Well, if he's not on the golf course, you can surely find him on the campaign trail - which is where he was today. BS'ing the blue collar workers.

He plans to call him? Plans to call him? Shouldn’t he have already called him?

[Texas resident]

S. Korea had better make preps to fend for themselves on this one. ozero is just too busy today.

[ColdOne]

He plans to call him? Plans to call him? Shouldn’t he have already called him? That is what I was thinking... He should have already called him.. Maybe he didn't want to wake up Lee? /s?

[snowrip]

Hah!

Can anyone here imagine our French metrosexual president being “outraged” over anything but a bad latte or someone calling him a name during recess?

[Captain Beyond]

Yes a phone call with one of those “Sternly” written letters on really thick stationary will do the trick and put North Korea in their place.

[Westbrook]

> Ah, the much talked about 3AM phone call. Wish Hillary
> was there to answer it instead of Obama.

Why? They are both committed communists and America-haters.

[ZX12R]

Shouldn’t he have already called him?

Perhaps he would have, if SK hadn't rejected his free trade agreement. If you reject this narcissist in any way, it costs you something.

[COBOL2Java]

I’m inclined to believe his communication was more along the line of his conversation with Bobby Jindal after the oil rig issue: “Don’t criticize me on TV!”

[Dahoser]

By the headline, I was thinking Obama must have gotten Dr. Who’s cellphone doodad to make a long distance call like that.

[doc maverick]

S.Korea embarrassed Obama.
He probably told the N.Koreans to bomb the S.Koreans.

[OldDeckHand]

"maybe they’re more interested in buying some US exports now?"

That's the way I'm seeing it. Why should we get bent out of shape about North Korea walking over South Korea, when South Korea refuses to trade fairly with us? They enjoy annual $11B-14B trade surplus with the US, while we spend who knows how many billions each year keeping US troops on their border.

If they want to continue to enjoy the umbrella of US protection, it's time to start opening their markets, immediately. I'm no longer eager to borrow money from China to protect South Korea from North Korea. It's insanity.

By the time his gofers set up the teleprompters and dial the telephone for this ninnyhammer, Korea will be unified.

[Protect the Bill of Rights]

He PLANS to call??? He hasn’t called yet?

[Gaffer]

"Look here, my yellow brother. You can't make me look bad in this!"

"I'll come down on you like stink on sh!t."

"You take the arty, and you'll by God like it! Just like we're doing to our sheep here with the TSA molestations!"

[IbJensen]

By the time his gofers set up the teleprompters and dial the telephone for this ninnyhammer, Korea will be unified.

[Vinnie]

I read it as Obama calls Robt. E. Lee over North attack.
Expected an Onion article.

[mmercier]

After a force opens up on me with field artillery I would feel reassured, knowing the potus was going to drop a dime on me sometime today.

The nk pigs want to publicly compromise us, and they have succeed.

Both Bushes, Reagan and even Clinton would be addressing the nation about the five square mile artillery emplacements in the north they rototilled with harpoons. Then explaining to the nation why the pentagon is going to need a few extra billion this year for "inventory maintenance"

obama will send them a couple billion dollars backed by chinese bond sales, and a few cargo containers of corn/wheat... And whatever else they want. We are playing an end game with a mouse.

[Protect the Bill of Rights]

If Obama got the call at 3:55, he should have called at 3:56.

[Cementjungle]

He'll get around to it... sometime.
