Oops! Note to myself: "Spell check is our friend".

Mission accomplished, Birdlady. You were posting the picture of a red "X" weren't you?

Just kidding. Heck, I can't even post a red "X".

[stultorum]

How did she do that?

[F.J. Mitchell]

Who do you trust then Newbie? Cnn, Abc, Nbc, CBS, DU ?

Troll Alert!

[F.J. Mitchell]

Ya got me.

[Birdlady]

hmm...I'm rather HTML "challanged", but when I clicked on "view image" on the "red x"in my previous post, the seismic graph came up....go figger...:)
and it's here as a link: http://aslwww.cr.usgs.gov/Seismic_Data/telemetry_data/INCN_24hr.html And that's all I can offer this time...:)

Thank you Madeline Halfbright and BJ Clinton!!

President Bush is not blameless either, he allowed it to happen on his watch.

Of course some of the blame must accrue to the current president, but he didn't appease the DPRK/north Korea and ship them oil and light water nuclear reactors, as far as I know.

LOL, you've never been burned by a Fox News Alert that turned out to be crap? Now who's the newbie!

The Bush administration will do absolutely nothing.

And if Iran tested a nuke, the Bush administration would also do absolutely nothing.

Bottom line, the utter foolishness of trying to create "Islamic democracy" in Iraq which has, predictably, resulted in absolute failure has left this administration absolutely impotent.

The Bush administration is toothless at this point. Pretty much everyone in the world knows this.

And yes, I'd still vote for Bush over any Democrat. I don't consider the Democratic party an alternative, but Bush is becoming the Republican Party's Jimmy Carter.

Very sad.

Maybe a time or two, but not everytime as with those other networks, I mentioned.

I enjoy being called a newbie, almost as much as I enjoy those nice young ladies at the checkout counter asking for my ID when I am buying beer.

mr. clinton is very unhappy tonight.

It is remarkable that you have so much inside information about matters of national security.

[Longbow1969]

What, specifically, about my post did you disagree with?

[rfp1234]

--I understand that Kim Jong Il has just said that he is holding his election.--

It's been 25 minutes, I don't think he can hold it any longer.

[msnimje]

What, specifically, about my post did you disagree with?

I can't disagree with it because you made your assumptions about things you could not possibly know.

We do not know what is going on behind the scenes or what the long game is in all this.

[rfp1234]

--President Bush is not blameless either, he allowed it to happen on his watch.--

Blah blah blah, and BJ allowed Pakistan to get nukes on his watch, AND allowed AQ Khan to proliferate the technology to... Allah knows whom.

[Longbow1969]

Oh stop it. You can't argue that we can't criticize foreign policy because we don't know everything that is happening "behind the scenes". Things happened "behind the scenes" during the Clinton administration too - but that didn't stop me or any other conservative from pointing out how bad Clinton's foreign policy was.

I'm not gonna buy the "behind the scenes" argument. The Bush administration's "Islamic democracy" mission in Iraq is failing, and has resulted in an inablility to adequately respond to hostile actions by NK or Iran (or anyone else).

So, heft a nuke over to Pyongyang and call it a "work accident" caused by an "unexplained delay" in the detonation.
They need to see what a real nuke test looks like.

Actually, I was hoping that's what was going to happen with this one.
