....

The bread being brought by Rodman to accompany the circus is allegedly in the form of luxury birthday gifts for the North Korean dictator and his wife. Rodman seems oblivous to North Korea’s near starvation of its people, human rights atrocities, gulags, and nuclear and missile adventurism, and appears equally unconcerned that providing Pyongyang with any luxury goods is a violation of the sanctions imposed by United Nations Security Council (UNSC) resolution 2094, adopted on March 7, 2013, and previous resolutions

Watching that video of him at that so-called press conference (or whatever it was .. an interview ... ) I Could NOT shake the gorilla image in Planet Of The Apes.

He talked like a 300 word vocabulary animal

I DO apologize for the racist picture ... but it is there if you let it.

Dennis Rodman is walking on thin ice..

His brain has glazed from within..

A sorry display and .. a lesson ..

how not to use sport diplomacy to breech walls via cultural exchange.

Thousands have broken US sanctions against Cuba, not one has been prosecuted. Empty posturing.

“SK media says that breaking the sanction can bring 20 years in jail or one million dollar fine. It is true? “

Obama has already demonstrated that he calls the shots on what rules and laws are obeyed, enforced or acted on. You can bet that if Sara Palin went to NK she’d be facing a prison sentence. But Jessie Jackson, Dennis Rodman, John McCain are all emissaries of our stupidity.

Rodman is a washed up drunken whore. He doesn’t want to give up his lavish life style so he is for sale. When he was on Celebrity Apprentice last year I could barely understand a word he said. Rodman is in NK because he is being paid to be there. Period!
