NKorea launches rocket, defying world pressure
SEOUL, South Korea – South Korea’s presidential office has confirmed North Korea’s launch of a long-range rocket launch from its east coast base.
The Blue House says liftoff took place at 11:30 a.m. (0230GMT) Sunday morning from the coastal Musudan-ri launch pad in northeastern North Korea.
Japanese broadcaster NHK cites the Japanese government as saying the rocket flew over Japan. It said there were no reports of any debris falling on Japan.
obama’s “stern” response-send howard “stern” and artie lang to NK to reason with them.
And that is exactly what NK is expecting to happen.
The missile is capable of hitting Alaska. I doubt Obama will give a damn about Alaska
Obama: I’m gonna tell on you North Korea, UN would be really really mad and will write a letter against the launch.
UN: North Korea pretty please don’t launch the missile.
North Korea: Were trembling in our shoes.. NOT!!!
If Bush was still the president North Korea wont even dare launch a firework pointing towards us.
WOWWW luckly nobody got hurt so far so does that mean Obama going give Chia Pet bailout
What does Drudge’s “No They Didn’t” headline mean? Anybody know?
How will the teleprompter react?
He’ll call up all the NATO leaders and say, ahhh, what do we do now? Do you think if I took the i-Pod back from Queenie and gave it to Kim Jung Il along with a new Members Only jacket, he’d like me? Doesn’t he know I’m the Great Communicator?
Nah, I bet he’ll return the IPod he picked up in Chicago for Kim Jung Il now.
That’ll teach the commies. No copies of B HO’s speeches and Inuaguration now.
My thoughts too. NO IPod or DVD’s for Kim Jung Il.
“What does Drudge’s “No They Didn’t” headline mean? Anybody know?”
How about....
They did what? Oh no! Mr. Bill!
Probably, “No! They didn’t!”
He just failed his 3am phone call.
He probably called his friends in the media and said "don't talk about it"... and that seems to have worked.
I’ll bet N Korea bootlegs a lot of DVDs, just like China. So Kim Jung probably already has all the DVD’s the Obamas would be giving out, except of course, seasons One and Two of “Flava of Love”.
QUestion JJ do you think Chia Pet want bailout or he just being roaney LOL!
