Newt: &#8220;If you put a missile on the launch pad, we&#8217;ll take it down, and if you fire ONE ROUND into South Korea, your regime is OVER.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>They agree that these are the things which President Bush should be saying to Kim Jong-Il. For added effect, Bush could <b>slap the little bastard<\/b> on his fat cheek to punctuate each point. What&#8217;s Kim going to do&#8211;call Jan Egeland?<\/p>\n<p>That petty tyrant should depart U.S. soil afraid, angry, ashamed, astonished, and absolutely convinced that every morning he should mumble a bitter &#8220;thank you&#8221; to President Bush for not having him killed the night before. <\/p>\n<p>The six-party talks have been a kid-gloves evolution designed more to force our slow-footed nominal allies into actually helping than to coerce Kim to do anything.  If those talks have been a failure, the answer is not to be even more kid-gloved with <b>the unspeakable horror from beyond the 38th parallel.<\/b>  It is well past time to show this human plague how lucky he was to have been at six-party talks.  I now support bilateral talks between America and North Korea, but only with that demonic piece of shit placed firmly into Receive Mode. <\/p>\n<p>Israel isn&#8217;t taking any crap from the Islamic Party of God; <b>why is America being pushed around<\/b> by a small man with bad hair? The problem is not that Kim has too little hope&#8211;the problem is that he has far too much hope, and the United States is derelict in our duty to remove that hope from him.<\/p>\n<div class=\"pld-like-dislike-wrap pld-template-1\">\r\n    <div class=\"pld-like-wrap  pld-common-wrap\">\r\n    <a href=\"https:\/\/balldiamondball.com\/blog\/wp-login.php\" class=\"pld-like-trigger pld-like-dislike-trigger  \" title=\"\" data-post-id=\"111\" data-trigger-type=\"like\" data-restriction=\"user\" data-already-liked=\"0\">\r\n                        <i class=\"fas fa-thumbs-up\"><\/i>\r\n                <\/a>\r\n    <span class=\"pld-like-count-wrap pld-count-wrap\">    <\/span>\r\n<\/div><div class=\"pld-dislike-wrap  pld-common-wrap\">\r\n    <a href=\"https:\/\/balldiamondball.com\/blog\/wp-login.php\" class=\"pld-dislike-trigger pld-like-dislike-trigger  \" title=\"\" data-post-id=\"111\" data-trigger-type=\"dislike\" data-restriction=\"user\" data-already-liked=\"0\">\r\n                        <i class=\"fas fa-thumbs-down\"><\/i>\r\n                <\/a>\r\n    <span class=\"pld-dislike-count-wrap pld-count-wrap\"><\/span>\r\n<\/div><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p><b>Kim Jong Il goes to Washington<\/b><br \/> &nbsp;&nbsp;Okay, it&#8217;s a scenario, and one which I do not relish.
