Doofy does not work on weekends, so NK will be letting the missiles fly all weekend.

It’s so funny how my dentist said to me last week “who are we to tell North Korea what to do”....I almost swallowed my new crown.

The local Chinese fishermen must have been tipped off yesterday something was going to happen over the Sea of Japan (aka the East Sea):

Chinese ships quit North-South Korea border - report
http://www.alertnet.org/thenews/newsdesk/SEO14469.htm

SEOUL, May 29 (Reuters) - Chinese fishing ships are leaving a disputed sea border that divides the two Koreas as tension mounts on the peninsula following this week's nuclear test by the North, South Korean media reported on Friday.

“Chinese fishing vessels have begun retreating from NLL (northern limit line) waters since yesterday. We are working to find out if this is based on North Korea's request,” Yonhap news agency quoted an unnamed South Korean army source as saying.

The NLL marks the maritime border between the two Koreas and has been the scene of naval clashes in the past.

Dubya did not appease Iran. Obama is a weak pansy that spends a trillion dollars on health care while there are NO JOBS! Then trots to Hollywood, is surrounded in utter corruption, and has the gall to say we are out of money. He is a Soros, global government, UN loving, tool. He is hitler like and backed by the MSM. No one wants a weak empty suit communist in power and as CIC right now; unless they are dumb as dirt or communists themselves.

I ignored him because I wanted him to glue the crown so I can split instead of listening to him talk nonsense.

Understandable....but I would have let him finish the dental work and then shared some logic and history with the guy. ;-)

” Here comes the really tough letter from the UN. “

I b’leive you’re not up to date on your protocol. As this is only the seventy-fifth stupid provocation since the last waning gibbous moon in a month containing the letter P, the correct response is a blistering, quill-rattling public implication that, should this behavior continue for an as-yet-undetermined length of time, someone (as yet undetermined) may be forced to NOTIFY the AUTHORITIES, who will then be forced, in the event of more of this crap, to initiate the sequence of warnings, notifications, bribery attempts, coalition-forming meetings, goodwill donations, walkouts on talks regarding the Taking of Tough Stances and by Whom, coalition-breaking meetings, the full series of obligatory graft / nepotism projects that accompany all “diplomatic” activity, and slobbering, bum-kissing apologies for the impending issuance, as soon as they figure out who’s actually going to do it, of the Really Tough Letter.

Which, of course, you are free to disregard.

And if anyone tries to enforce the Really Tough Letter, you are, course , free to prosecute them for Crimes Against Humanity.

I know people who think we have no right stopping any country from having nukes that wants nukes. After all, we have them so it’s “not fair.” I stopped talking to an acquaintence all together because he thinks it’s none of our business if Iran builds nukes. Secretly I think he’s hoping they bomb Israel but I can’t prove that.

Hey Joe -- you called it, brother!

The problem is that short of launching Predator missiles and acting "deeply
concerned," Obama is militarily impotent.
