You're up, barry.

North Korea appears to launch rocket: Japan (http://news.yahoo.com/s/nm/20090405/wl_nm/us_korea_north_58 - broken link)

Bout time for that letter to the UN (you know, that world body that is so efficient, effective, pertinent and virtuous) strenuously condemning NK.

Quote:
SEOUL (Reuters) – 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.

The rocket is supposed to fly over Japan, dropping boosters to its west and east on a path that runs southwest of Hawaii.
Maybe they'll listen to barry and give it up.

One of my favorite Biden gaffes.

You must remember? Joe, reminding us all how obama would be tested by our enemies and how his response would appear to be ..... lacking? You must remember?

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."

"I can give you at least four or five scenarios from where it might originate," Biden said to Emerald City supporters, mentioning the Middle East and Russia as possibilities. "And he's gonna need help. And the kind of help he's gonna need is, he's gonna need you - not financially to help him - we're gonna need you to use your influence, your influence within the community, to stand with him. Because it's not gonna be apparent initially, it's not gonna be apparent that we're right."
My guess is obama will reward NK for it's brazen behavior.

See post #3 - that's what he really said.

Maybe you could look up the video as well.

The letter - he will use that as his sword.

A strongly worded letter to the UN should make NK back down, don't you think?
