The Korean demilitarized zone provides an unforgettable demonstration of the difference between free market capitalism and Central Planning/Communism. Thirty five miles north of Seoul, one of the world’s most prosperous and bustling cities is the border of a desolate land filled with starving citizens ruled by a wealthy elite. Sixty years ago this was one country.

This trip should be a requirement for everyone who supports Obama.

I can’t argue with that, none of them seem to see any connection with what’s happening in the United States currently and Obama’s policies. In light of this a one-way trip North of the DMZ would be more productive.

For watching TV?

For watching TV.

Make no mistake, the left would do the same to you for watching Fox News, if they thought they could get away with it.

Mentor of obama Bill Ayers said we'll kill the 25 million that we can't re-educate.

Don't think that Hollywood and the RIAA aren't using their own connections to politicians to push for the same punishment here in America.
