NKorean missile launch would be ‘provocative’: US
The United States said Tuesday that any test firing of a long-range missile by North Korea would be seen as a “provocative” act.
“First of all, we don’t comment on intelligence matters,” said State Department spokesman Robert Wood.
“But North Korea’s missile activities and, you know, missile programs are a concern to the region. There’s no secret there. And a ballistic missile launch by North Korea would be unhelpful and, frankly, provocative.”
Unhelpful. Provocative.
Well, if that doesn’t stun the NORKs into dropping their regional and global blackmail plans, not to mention their support for global Islamofascist terror, nothing will.
Apparently the North Koreans are having trouble “unclenching their fist,” given how far they have it rammed up Obama’s ass. Of course, they have lots of practice at that, having gotten brown smears all over their knuckles with BJ Clinton and GW Bush, too.

As is their (apparent) primary modus operandi in these parlous times, the State Department has the “Walk Softly…” down solid…
It’s that “…And Carry A Big Stick” part they never seem able to figure out.
Meanwhile, in response to having “the rockiest day of his young administration,” The Lord Of All He Surveys…booked -
The Won, accompanied by The First Mother, did a breakaway, and took on some tough questioning from seven- and eight-year-olds, down at Capital City Public Charter School.
Oh, well, then…
While Bobby Gibbs, the press secretary was getting “grilled” by questions about the latest White House appointment
triumphdebacle - The Won & First Momma were getting “toasted” by the kids.It’s now known that the Favorite Superheroes are Spiderman and Batman, and that 1600 Pennsylvania Ave has truly wondrous perks - y’all come visit!
Little kids’ questions are tough, man…
(Nevermind all those poor boobs freezin’ their butts off in Kentucky and Arkansas and places like that - FEMA’s got that one, right?…)
Just another day on the job.
Provocative?
Yeah, and when Seattle or LA burn under a NoRK nuclear flower what will they do? Send a strongly worded statement?
And calling “The Ones” administrations pussies gives pussies a bad name. Shame on you!
When Iran captured those British sailors, PM Tony Blair pronounced the situation “quite serious indeed.” Foggy Bottom has a ways to go to reach that level of inanity, but I have faith they’re working on it.
As a hobby, I’m working on creating my own future world (for science fiction writing and the like). I currently figure that a realistic future consists of New York City being hit early in this century by an offshore nuclear detonation, eight-figure casualties, after which there is a small-scale nuclear conflict in which Teheran, Israel & surroundings, and Somalia are all leveled, North Korea and Taiwan are occupied by China, U.S. undergoes populist revolution and civil war which is stopped by Pinochet-style coup and martial law.
Even though it’s fiction, I don’t find this scenario to be unlikely.
Never mind them; I know what I’ll be doing, and it will involve single-malt Scotch.
