“but Pyongyang would be turned into a smoking crater.”
Can you see Obama ordering the bombing of North Korea? I can see a sharply worded diplomatic note about the destruction of Seoul. I can see an extended aid package for the North. But no bombing.
Nope. If he did, it would be the FIRST thing he ever really did FOR America since becoming pResident. It would be a trend breaker except for the fact that Kim Un probably can't see Obama bombing NK either which is probably why we are where we are today. They know Obama as the world sees him.
