Gulp . . . I'm so puckered up I won't have a bowel movement for a month . . . but I'm afraid you're right. Pee Wee Clinton spent eight years showing the world blackmail was a viable and profitable tactic. Somewhere, somehow, and sometime someone is gonna have to change that.
But, wow, think of the casualties involved if North Korea . . . No, no, the casualties will just be worse later. You're right.
The U.S., like it or not, appears to be the only grown-up on the world stage. But if I were GW I'd have my finger on the trigger to annihilate the North Korean bastard as soon as I even got a whif of missile fuel.
