Madeline Albright on Larry King Live

'As further evidence that appeasers transcend time and common sense, Wednesday evening on Larry King Live, Madeline Albright stated that we shouldn't make fun of North Korea for its Taepodong 2 missile failure because it "just eggs them on."

That gem recalls Neville Chamberlain's ominous statement when asked, in 1937, whether Britain would confront Hitler. Mr. Chamberlain responded that he wouldn't want to "anger Herr Hitler."

The childlike simplicity that her comment conjures reflects the epitome of the left's utter incapacity to look evil in the eye. Indeed, they don't stare down the enemy they look past it, because for them it truly doesn't exist--until it spontaneously strikes with such a barbarous ferocity that it momentarily shocks them to a fully awakened state. At that point, which was last documented after 9/11, they register horror and disbelief at the profound savagery of the enemy. Concurrently, they cast a deep, self-indicting inward glance, convinced as they are that we must have done something to provoke them.

So it is with our former Secretary of State whose track record with North Korea is, to be charitable, spotty. The question is, which political soothsayers are the Democratic candidates listening to?'

NK is terrorizing the Nation of Japan and the simple minded putz says we shouldn't make fun of him. I really really abhor these people. And now that we have learned that a missile was aimed at Hawaii are we still supposed to be nice to him?
