That be a six inch bowl. His general’s were given a pass as their hats would fall down below their ears and eyes making it difficult to see the enemy.

“Let Us Trim Our Hair in Accordance with the Socialist Lifestyle.”

I thought that was the 2012 slogan for the DNC...

Yep. I have a feeling he's going to be the end of North Korea.
