I see Obama is now being blamed for North Korea and the missile

[oviedodem]

As I lurked on Free Republic, listened to my ignorant neighbor, and listened to FOX, I sense that the WH is now under attack for NK. In addition Rasmussen states that 57% (66% republican) favor a military response to the launch.

They should be reminded that we are already waging a war in 2 countries; this would be the third. Second, the U.S. really does not have a good idea of the military capabilities of NK and we seem to forget about the first Korean war.

lastly where was the anger when NK has basically being toying with U.S. since 98. During that time NK launched missiles/rockets about 5 time during the Bush administration

1. And it seems, Kim's power comes from the villification of the US. Military attack=not smart. nt

2. It IS Clinton's.. uh... I mean Obama's fault!

:sarcasm:

3. President Obama has yet to see the end of his third month in office

Now our President is being blamed for every little thing under the sun. The situation with North Korea has much more to do with the failed policies we went through for the eight years of the Bush Administration than anything President Obama has done in the last eight weeks.

We crafted the interface between the world and North Korea through little chimpy's policies of

Ignore them, they will go away

Contain them, they are powerless to do anything about it

No negotiations with terrorist, they have nothing constructive to say

Starve them, when they get hungry they will see thing our way

We now get to see how the Main Stream Media protects the right wingers at the expense of good Democrats.

4. If I am not mistaken this is not the first time they have launched a

missile. Weren't 2-3 of them launched during *ss & co. administration? Why didn't he do something?

5. He shouldn't be blamed for NK's infantile leader.

The world knows NK, like Iran, is a problem. President Obama has already consulted the UN.

There will be a response. A global response.

6. I see Trajan not giving a fuck what right wing lackeys say ....

There will be no attack on NK because such an effort is fraught with dangerous possibilities that even the most rabid RW general would not commit to ...

Let the RW idiots harrumph around their Radio and TV outlets - Who the fuck CARES WTF they think ?

Do you ?

7. There's just no way 57% want a millitary response to NK

I don't buy Rasmussen's poll.
