Vice President Mike Pence made a surprise trip the Korean Demilitarized Zone on Monday, reportedly breaking his security plan in order to get a closer look at North Korean troops amid increased tensions in the region.

Wearing a leather bomber jacket, Pence ventured outside and appeared to stare daggers at Kim Jong-Un’s soldiers.

That's one cold stare.

The vice president wasn’t supposed to go outside, but he told his security detail it was something he wanted to see, CNN reported.

The Korean DMZ is the strip of land that separates North Korea from South Korea and includes small blue buildings, referred to as “conference row,” where talks with international VIPs generally occur.

The North Korean soldiers could be seen on the other side of the DMZ taking pictures of the vice president....

or a deal ... with no guarantee that North Korea would fulfill its promises.

Do they think Obama (or Clinton) is still president? An un-guaranteed deal is no longer an option since Obama left. And Trump won't ignore violations like Obama with Iran.

CCG: Where do you guys find these great Obama photos? Is there a Master Collection of Obama Fem Images lurking out there somewhere?

One of the generals that reports regularly on FOX commented that the people in the north were much shorter and generally very small because of the lack of nutrition now for generations.

A little lean but well fed it appears.

Could you imagine Biden having the guts to do that? Or Obama? /rhetorical

Wow those uniforms are hanging off those soldiers.

Someone should toss some cheeseburgers at them.

No, MIA Obama would not deem to stare down a fellow traveler. And it’s damn sure Michellemybell would not
bother to back up her man. Mrs. Pence is right there -
in chinos, bomber jacket and a scarf - supporting her
man, day and night. A real wife.

What they should do is get a big ole steak or something and eat it right in front of them! Well maybe a giant bluefin tuna on second thought.

I think I understand:

The hallmark of the Obama Admin was the notion, “One set of rules for the rulers, another draconian set for Joe Six Pack”.

HERE, what we see is that starkest possible contrast:

The line soldiers bear the physical risk, but SO DO THE LEADERS.

I guess that’s it.

That’s what I see, anyway.

Well, I knew what I was looking for, so I googled “obama judo” and when results came up, I went to the “images” tab and just chose one.

Ah, good point!
