#1 Lugar. Lol. Leading - as in returned to DC so many times he gets to sit in the highchair, sport Depends, and swill Ensure - but no one with two neurons would follow him anywhere. I recall he's the big US advocate for Sea Law changes that are demonstrably idiotic. Other than that, a terrible position on a very important future issue, he's done nothing in the last 3 or 4 years worth noting. Senile buffoon.

Boxer. ROFL. ROFLMAO. Has never, ever, said anything worth noting, much less implementing. To imply she grasps the import of anything involving North Korea is a laugh. Doesn't get any worse than Boxy the Bonehead.

Neither has a clue. Face-time. Sound bite. Rub / Pull.

The way Bush has dealt with Kimmie has been as good as it could get, given what was dumped in his lap. Any suggestions, criticisms, or even agreement from either are irrelevant. Merely shows how desperate the FTN producers are these days. Russert's leftovers, lol.

#2 Somone tell this old DICK its far too late - the crisis is already here. Thanks to the bunch who wanted to talk LAST TIME, aka Jimmy Carter.

Sheesh, when even Barbara Boxer is right about not pullingoptions off the table, you KNOW you're in trouble.

Lugar. Hagel. Chafee. McCain. Graham. Specter. and the spinless Frist.

Somone tell me again why a republican Majority was supposed to mean anything in the senate?

#5 We can avoid and serious escalation of the matter. Well Babs I would say when they broke the Non-nuke treaty, fired a couple missiles, and now are fueling another that the escalation is ENTIRLEY on their part. Frigging moonbat! If Babs was in Congress on Dec 8, 1941 she would call for talks with Japan to see what we did to anger them.

#7 I agree with the Prez on this. It doesn't just concern us, it has a lot more to do with SKor, China, Japan and Russia than just us. They are trying to be clever, but in a battle of witts they are unarmed.

#9 Yep. Only a peripheral concern to the US. Cut off funding and aid sources. If China and SKor want to fund them, then raise tariffs and move US troops south, eventually past Pusan.

#11 You know the Left > the world would be a safer place iff everyone had missles and nukes, ergo America is the only one that must give up its missles and nukes to OWG, besides our sovereignty, freedoms, rights, control of our own Govt, and endowments, etal. Free America = Socialist-Commie Amerikkka is not paying the Norkies enuff $$$ to leave America-West alone, nor is America = Amerikkka dev the expensive hi-techs in order to give to the Norkies free so that the Norkies can use against America. D *** it all, "America must be constrained/restrained and controlled and under OWG" as long as the Lefties are NOT held responsible or blamed for anything.
