It's Your Country Too, Mr. President (Washington Post)http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2009/04/09/AR2009040903367_pf.htmlIn his major foreign policy address in Prague committing the United States to a world without nuclear weapons, President Obama took note of North Korea's missile launch just hours earlier and then grandiloquently proclaimed:
"Rules must be binding. Violations must be punished. Words must mean something. The world must stand together to prevent the spread of these weapons. Now is the time for a strong international response."
A more fatuous presidential call to arms is hard to conceive. What "strong international response" did Obama muster to North Korea's brazen defiance of a Chapter 7 -- "binding," as it were -- U.N. resolution prohibiting such a launch?

| 2. What would Krauthammer suggest? |
|
Why "America's unique technological edge in missile defenses" of course. So to neutralize North Korea, this mouth for PNAC et al wants to stick missile batteries in Poland. That'll teach those Korean bastards. And of course it will pour hundreds of billions more into the cesspool known as the MIC.
