I’m sure North Korea would’ve been playing this game today, even if George W. Bush were still president and not rookie peacenik Barack Obama. The Korean commies will think twice when Secretary Clinton and UN Ambassador Rice use that tough language. This is what we’re being told to believe.
North Korea may launch a long-range ballistic missile towards Hawaii on American Independence Day, according to Japanese intelligence officials.
The missile, believed to be a Taepodong-2 with a range of up to 4,000 miles, would be launched in early July from the Dongchang-ni site on the north-western coast of the secretive country. Intelligence analysts do not believe the device would be capable of hitting Hawaii’s main islands, which are 4,500 miles from North Korea.
Maybe it’s time for a Korean Missile Czar. That should get matters under control.
there was a time when an attack on hawaii cost the offending country their sovereignty.
of course, that was when democrats were democrats and not communists as today.
if i were potus, i would say knock it out of the sky as soon as it clears the tower.
on second thought, if i were potus south korea would be an island.
maybe kim, jung Il is just after hussein’s BC.
he might be doing hussein a favor.

“Knock the thing out of the sky as soon as it is clear of Japan.”
That would be the smart move. ‘You tested your missile; we tested ours. Yours was just going to drop into the ocean anyway, right? No loss, then.’
Of course, Obama would consider that to be ‘too aggressive’ and would ‘send the wrong signal’.
Sec. Clinton: “The US government will respond to these latest provocations with the strongest possible adjectives!“
“The Korean commies will think twice when Secretary Clinton and UN Ambassador Rice use that tough language.”
Hey, now! No adjective has been ruled out; they’re all on the table as possible responses.
Excuse me why would they broadcast when and where they will be launching? Is this a setup for something else?
Knock the thing out of the sky as soon as it is clear of Japan.
Maybe Hillary will write them all a mean-spirited note
