As if the well worn road Kasich wants to take has worked. During the 30+ years the Norks have developed nuclear weapons, and the systems to deliver those weapons if not already to the Continental US.

I read this passage: "...First, North Korea is not, as some claim, “sanctioned-out.” We are nowhere near to applying the same type of restraints on North Korea that were successful in bringing Iran to the negotiating table..."

Ah, yes. The "successful" Iran Treaty. We will free up billions of frozen funds, drop international sanctions, plus deliver billions of dollars of pallets of cash (because, in their words, it was so much easier to deal with them that way) in exchange for opening up their facilities for inspectors, and a "promise" not to make nuclear weapons.

Well, isn't that just fine and dandy. Who WOULDN'T agree to that?

Except we don't have free access to their facilities to inspect.

And look at that successful treaty with North Korea that ended up with Madeline Albright clinking glasses with Kim Jong Il after agreeing to give them about $10 million in oil, plus food, sanctions, and oh yes, two nuclear reactors.

I wouldn't mind that liberals are deranged (and Kasich is one of them with an "R" after his name) except that when they make choices that take them down, we will all go down with them.

L’ll kim agrees.

Wake me up when this asshole negotiates deals putting a billion dollars on his balance sheet.

Sure, let ‘em launch a few ballistic missiles, they’re just bluffing and everyone knows it! Besides, they have to keep us capitalist imperialist aggressors at bay! /sarcasm

1930’s Kasich: Hitler’s an OK chap!

[Rockingham]

Kasich is dope. For years, the North Koreans repeatedly threatened war against the US and, due to soft, pleading talk and feckless US diplomacy, were permitted to develop their nuclear and ballistic missile capacity. Trump’s strong talk against North Korea was necessary in order to restore the credibility of US warnings with China, Russia, the UN, and the North Korean elite.

This is when a policy wonk attempts to sound presidential.

[JimRed]

So discussing probable threats and how to deal with them is now “loose talk”, Governor?

[Col Freeper]

Wow, is there anything that John R. Kasich doesn't know?

[tet68]

military options short of war

Mr. K doesn’t seem to understand that this is
a contradiction in terms...for military personnel
there is no difference.

Thank God, our President is not K.

[Fedora]

John Kasich’s appeasement of nuclear-armed dictators is irresponsible, like everything that comes out of that fool’s mouth.
