There is NO WAY this President or any other will go to war with North Korea. First of all they have Nukes and while taking out N. Korea, S. Korea and Japan would fall under nuclear attack. Once the Regime in N. Korea fell we would have to rebuild the infrastructure from ground up which would cost trillions of dollars. We can't afford that.And what is worse, we simply do not have the troops to be able to mount any further wars. Sometimes in my darker moments I think we would have been better off letting Saddam export oil (at least we'd get some and oil prices would be lower) and using the troops against a country with a real nuclear threat like Iran or North Korea.

using the troops against a country with a real nuclear threat like Iran or North Korea I'm glad Bush and Cheney are in charge. BTW - What are the troops going to DO against nuclear weapons?
