Isn't this lovely? One day, North Korea is the third leg of the Axis of Evil, then the next day they fax a worthless piece of paper to the ChiComs in Beijing and suddenly our illustrious Bush Administration decides that those Six Party Yuk-Yuks are making progress, and 37,000 tons of wheat are unloaded at the North Korean port of Nampo within days and you can be sure that the North Korean military appreciates it very much.

Meanwhile, the North Korean people as a whole continue to suffer the tortures and deprivations of Comrade Chia Pet's regime, and they can thank the White House 'Enduring Legacy Commission' for selling them out.

I hope Condi the Piano Player can sleep well at night.

Actually, I don't.

Its a disgrace, for sure. The Gip missed a terrific opportunity.

You’d be better off using a Tomahawk, or the land-attack Harpoon variant SLAM. Harpoon has the range, but doesn’t do well with ground clutter and doesn’t have inertial nav or data link.

Either way, firing two at a target that size would be a waste of ordinance.

The concrete was cured improperly. If you look closely at the foundation you can see it crumbling.

he spends 2 billion for that monstrosity.

North Korea's GDP for the entire country was $40 billion in 2005 (CIA factbook).

That’s a brilliant idea. Bravo!

I’ll even help move them.

Want to make sure there's nothing left that they can raise up again.

I’d have to be so drunk to decide to go in there, I don’t think I’d be able to walk in.

Don't worry, its NK. If you ever found yourself there (by some freak accident) they'd escort you in, sober or drunk. And once inside it would be the Hotel California.

Checkout any time you like...
