N. Korea to declare it has nukes
North Korea startled a six-nation conference in China on East Asian security by announcing its intentions to formally declare its possession of nuclear weapons and to carry out a nuclear test, an administration official said Thursday. - This story by SHAWN McCARTHY of the Globe and Mail
Matt's Chat: For me this is not about hating liberals and placing blame. For me, this is an issue of the Bush administration choosing, what in their mind was, the lesser of two evils. Bushites had a choice: Iraq or North Korea. We chose Iraq. I believe it was smarter for us to go after Iraq because we weren't positive what the status of Saddam's programs actually were. With North Korea, they didn't hide it from us. I look at this as a failure of diplomacy and an even bigger failure of common sense. Diplomacy does not work with fanatics. People who feel they have nothing to lose will say whatever they need to say to buy enough time to do what they feel they must do. I am not surprised by this announcement. It has been a longtime coming. Now, what are we going to do about it?
Mark's Remarks: Well, thank Bill Clinton for more proliferation. That moron welcomed the damn North Koreans and gave them everything they wanted. Gave them our technology, our know-how, to "foster better relations." All he has fostered is another enemy with destructive power. The Chinese acting appalled, heck, they probably gave some material to the North Koreans. This is a situation we need to severely monitor, and I can feel that North Korea may be next on the ol' Axis of Evil hitlist. See, folks, this is what liberal foreign policy gets you. "Sure, Kim Jong Il, come on over and take this knowhow, get some of our money, and we'll be friends, right? We'll give you everything you want, just say you dont hate us?" That is what this is about. Instead of doing what is right for our country, liberals have given over vast secrets of tech to our enemies, especially in the last administration. I still fail to see why Bill Clinton is not facing treason charges.
Baghdad Bombing is UN's 9/11
"While we always have to look at how we have to increase security measures, there’s a sort of line in the sand that we don’t want to cross. We don’t want to become a “fortress U.N.,” because at that point our usefulness to the people we’re seeking to serve in Iraq or Afghanistan is lost. " - Mark Malloch-Brown, UN in an interview posted by on MSNBC's website.
Matt's Chat: I'm one of those who calls a tragedy a tragedy and doesn't seek to "rank" them. The bombing on the UN HQ in Iraq is a tragedy. For anyone to compare this tragedy (dozens of victims) to 9/11 (thousands of victims) though, has to be crazy. Beyond the idea of referring to 9/11 as a "wake up call," I see absolutely no comparison between the two events. It's probably best that I let that be that...
Mark's Remarks: To me, this is an insult to those who died on 9/11. This attack on the UN is nowhere near as severe or as meaningful as what happened that day. It is stupid of the UN to think they would be immune to attacks simply because they proudly send out the message: we hate America, too! This is what happens when you tie in with thieves and terrorists and dictators, like the UN has. You can trust no one.
Oh, then the guy talks about all the aid the UN has been giving, and how it is the Biggest provider of assistance to the Iraqi people. Give me a break. What about all the food Americans have been giving?
The best security measures for the UN to take is to formally side with America and fight terrorism, instead of coddling dictators and synchopants who care nothing for human lives. The UN is nothing more than an ostrich with its head buried in the sands, and now, they are only seeking to bury it deeper. They are taking the unfortunate loss of life to say, we need more power in the region! Yeah, you have done so well with securing your own buildings, haven't you, Koffi? The UN needs to shut up and let the US do our jobs. They need to grow up and realize terrorists are going to hit anyone they want, not just Americans. That blue flag is no security blanket, and it means less and less the more wishy-washy the UN gets.
Canada Outlaws Smiling (?)
To get a valid passport, Canadians must now send in two photos with "neutral expressions." That means a closed-mouth, straight-ahead gaze into the camera. - This story is by SHAWN McCARTHY of the Globe and Mail
Matt's Chat: Silly Canadians...Trix are for kids. From the land that brought us hockey and lumberjacking, we get an idea that I'm sure liberals will want to enforce in the United States.
Mark's Remarks: Hello boys and girls....can you say, overkill? Give me a break.....This is more ridiculous than searching a 2 year old before getting on a plane. Of course it is silly, it is from our crazy cousins in Canada! No smiling. This is totally outrageous. What is the difference between a smile and frown or steady neutral gaze. I agree with the other guidelines, but those are common sense. This whole smiling thing is ridiculous. If a guard is confused by a smile, that person should not be doing security. Simply ludicrous!
France Cancels Christmas (?)
France, a country where leisure time is sacrosanct, is mulling a radical plan for financing health care after a heat wave estimated to have killed thousands: Make people work on a national holiday. - This story is by John Leicester of the Associated Press
Matt's Chat: French kissing, French toast, and French fries (although some will make a case for the French tickler) that is it! No more French ideas for liberals in this country to latch on to... This makes me wonder if the "no smiling" thing came from French Canada.
Mark's Remarks: Another idiotic idea from the French. They seemed more upset about working on minor holidays than Christmas. Maybe, if the French would spend more time on infrastructure instead of showing the world their collective asses with their arrogant posturing, the whole health care thing would be better off. Maybe if they weren't neo-socialist lovers of wine and cheese who have the dreaded socialized medicine, that would fix their problems. Socialized medicine, nay, even socialism, has proven to be nothing but a quagmire. It is a system that does not work. All you create are fiefdom bureaucracies concerned with their own existence so much that they leave behind the care of the people. The French are good at this sort of thing. Rather than look hard at their system and re-examine what is going on, let's blame holidays. Lets cancel Christmas. But, lets punish the unwashed citizenry, that will fix everything. That is why liberals are the worst elitists. Who ends up having to pay? The very people the liberals claim to love and support: the citizenry. France should surrender to the tide of failure and simply recreate a new system, or better yet, ask us in America who to properly create a better socioeconomic system. Of course, the French will never do that, because they are the center of the Universe, just ask them. Well, for being the greatest, they certainly don't know how to run their country. Maybe they should take notes, like Montesquieu did 200 years ago, when people like he and Rousseau cited us unwashed and uncultured Americans as the hearth of Freedom and Prosperity.
