Suppose North Korea develops a full blown case of cranial rectal insertion, and launches an attack against the South. What would be the proper course of action for the USA to take? This assumes of course, that our own leadership is competent.
Drudge has it up that Kim Jong “Mentally” Il has packed it in.
Y’all know what that means…
PARRRRR-TEHHHHH!!!1!ONE!!!
Denizens, remember back about two weeks before the ’08 general election when then-Senator Hair-Butt-Plugs all but invited the Axis of Evil™ world to test them – to “come say it to their faces”, as it were?
Remember this money quote?
“Mark my words,” the Democratic vice presidential nominee warned at the second of his two Seattle fundraisers Sunday. “It will not be six months before the world tests Barack Obama like they did John Kennedy. The world is looking. We’re about to elect a brilliant 47-year-old senator president of the United States of America. Remember I said it standing here if you don’t remember anything else I said. Watch, we’re gonna have an international crisis, a generated crisis, to test the mettle of this guy.”
Well, lo & behold and saints be praised – for once, Vice-Ayatollah Gaffemeister has, probably to our everlasting detriment, been proven correct:
North Korea appeared to launch a rocket on Sunday, the Japanese government said, defying calls from world leaders to scrap a plan that has caused international alarm.
It was not immediately clear if the launch had been successful, or if it was a long-range version of the rocket.
Y’know, suddenly I feel a helluva  lot less safe.  How ’bout you?
The rocket is supposed to fly over Japan, dropping boosters to its west and east on a path that runs southwest of Hawaii.
The United States, South Korea and Japan say the plan is actually the test of a Taepodong-2 missile, which is designed to carry a warhead as far as Alaska.
Which would mean – depending on the launch vector, of course – it could also  hit Hawaii and the Lower 48™.
Now there’s  Change You Can Believe In™!!! 
The Ayatollah Obambi’s reaction, of course, was extremely predictable.  Assuming, of course, you’re using former President Peanuthead as your template:
North Korea’s development and proliferation of ballistic missile technology pose a threat to the northeast Asian region and to international peace and security. The launch today of a Taepo-dong 2 missile was a clear violation of United Nations Security Council Resolution 1718, which expressly prohibits North Korea from conducting ballistic missile-related activities of any kind. With this provocative act, North Korea has ignored its international obligations, rejected unequivocal calls for restraint, and further isolated itself from the community of nations.
We will immediately consult with our allies in the region, including Japan and the Republic of Korea, and members of the U.N. Security Council to bring this matter before the Council. I urge North Korea to abide fully by the resolutions of the U.N. Security Council and to refrain from further provocative actions.
Preventing the proliferation of weapons of mass destruction and their means of delivery is a high priority for my administration. The United States is fully committed to maintaining security and stability in northeast Asia and we will continue working for the verifiable denuclearization of the Korean Peninsula through the Six-Party Talks. The Six-Party Talks provide the forum for achieving denuclearization, reducing tensions, and for resolving other issues of concern between North Korea, its four neighbors, and the United States. North Korea has a pathway to acceptance in the international community, but it will not find that acceptance unless it abandons its pursuit of weapons of mass destruction and abides by its international obligations and commitments.
“Stop!  Or we shall wag our fingers and scold you a second time!”
Lemme as you 52-percenter pussies a question:  What good’s it gonna do arguing about the economy or bemoaning the fact that a lot of you people are jobless or bitching that we NEEEEEEEEEED!!!!!!!  the bailout stimulus package du jour  if we’ve all been reduced to a nation of glass?
So how does “Hope and Change!!!™” sound to you now, hmmmmmmm???
Asshats.
Well, Denizens, looks like B. HUSSEIN!!!  Obambi and Senator Hair-Butt-Plugs are going to get their wish a little sooner than they’d expected.  Like, say, a week before the election.
North Korea threatened Tuesday to turn South Korea into “debris” in an unusually strong statement that demanded Seoul halt what the communist state called its policy of confrontation.
It was issued amid worsening relations between the Koreas, with the North angry about anti-Pyongyang leaflets floated across the border by activists and defector groups based in the South.
That’s really all we need RightAboutNow™.  Wars going on in two theatres, a pansy-assed Communist limp-wrist on the cusp of illegally occupying the White House (which may or may not bring yet another war in yet another theatre), and now N.Korea’s on the verge of forcing NATO’s hand.
And does anyone want to start a pool on China moving on Taiwan shortly thereafter?
“The puppet authorities (Seoul) had better bear in mind that the advanced pre-emptive strike of our own style will reduce everything… to debris, not just setting them on fire,” the North’s military said.
“It will turn out to be a just war… to build an independent reunified state on it,” it added in a statement carried by the state news agency.
Translation:  “We’re going to bomb the shit out of Seoul, and you’re just going to watch, American dogs, and not do a fucking  thing about it.”
And, given who’s about to occupy the White House, it’s a safe bet that they’re bang-on.  The Manchurian Muslim™ is probably creaming his jeans with that needle-dick of his over it this very minute.
And a large number of you couldn’t care less, because you jutht hate Boooothh.  Don’t you?  I mean, it doesn’t matter to any of you Oprah-worshippers out there that a potential world war is about to be starting halfway across the globe, and you imbeciles want that jug-eared, dickless wonder at the helm of State instead of a former military man – no, that doesn’t matter, ’cause Lindsay Lohan and America Ferrera are having a catfight!!!11!1!!ONE!!1
Tumblefucked twats… 
It is probably a damned good thing I’m not President of the United States right now.
Because I guaran-damn-fuckin’-tee you, Denizens – had I been President, and read this – I’d have immediately, and without regret, given the order to make Pyongyang glow.
So, Kimchee baby, thank whatever Buddha you fellate that there’s a spineless wuss living on Pennsylvania Avenue right now.
Thatisall™.
So President Tom ol’ Kim Jong “Mentally” Il likes  nuclear explosions in his homeland, does he?
Maybe we should accomodate him…
Just sayin’, is all.
UPDATE:  LC and Denizen Tennessee Budd kindly reminds us that “President Tom” is the Iranian pansy-ass Ahmadinnerjacket.
Our bad. (sheepish grin)
