A truly surreal and mysterious state.

Interesting take.

I suppose if it ever reaches the point that I'm no longer welcome in Bugtussell, I can move there and run for dictator.

It is much to easy to brainwash people. Look at all the damage Fox has done to our once great country.

Amazing the effect isolating people from the real world, then filling them with fear of everything and everyone "outside" can have, isn't it?

I suppose the Communist leaders are just concerned about protecting their North Korean "exceptionalism".

Crazy, crazy, crazy...........

Thank you for joining in Noon.

I was beginning to worry that I was the only one who didn't have a life, especially on Thanksgiving.

The titles Dear Leader and Great Leader have already been taken. What would you be?

Hadn't really though about, but if they're all totally insane, they should be able to find an executive position for me somewhere.

Unless they're afraid that I'll "out crazy" 'em.

This is 100% Obama's fault. His solid support of rogue countries has been a green light to become aggressive. The guy is a terrorist at heart.

Isn't everything? In your opinion, anyways?

Actually, I would agree with you (somewhat) on the content of your reply, if you had said you thought his response was weak. It was. The situation called for much stronger warnings to NK than what it got.

But, I think there is more to it than that. I think the entire world is watching the U.S. grow weaker every year. And, I think it started long before Mr. Obama came along. The compromise in Korea the first time. The way the Vietnam war was fought, and lost. Now, this debacle in Afghanistan, wherein we fight a bunch of yahoos riding donkeys for seven years and accomplish all too little. The way a handfull of religious freaks with boxknives and airline tickets nearly drove us to our knees. The way Americans can't even handle the pressure of being hassled at the airport without bitching like a bunch of schoolgirls.

Is it any wonder why the rest of the world is beginning to see us a big joke?
Kind of like a schizophrenic giant who spends more time fighting the voices in his own head, than he spends fighting his enemies.
