To have an effective negoitiation with North Korea we have to instill in them the belief that we will do whatever it takes to stop them from spreading nuclear weapons to terrorists and expanding on their nuclear weapons program. And yes in a worst case scenario that would be invasion. But there are many more direct and indirect methods that can be taken before we get there. The key is we won't turn a blind eye to them developing nuclear weapons after they have promised not to by treaty.

Now the Bush administration wants a peaceful solution if at all possible. However he will not purchase that peaceful solution by letting North Korea do what ever they damn well please as long as there is a front to put in place to make it look like their towing the line. This is the democrat solution. It's like a wife telling her husband it's ok to screw around on her so long as he's discreet. Well IMO that BS. You can go wallow in it all you want. The long and the short is you have to make a stand for what is right or you will ultimately compromise yourself into a much worse situation. Of course the dems aren't worried about this, because they'll just blame the republicans. Always have, always will. I don't want politics as usual. Give me someone who'll say get with the program or we're going kick your @$$.

We wouldn't be in this situation it Clinton has any balls worth more than getting sexual gratification on White House interns. He has to be one of the most cowardly presidents if not the most cowardly to ever serve. And coutries like North Korea took full advantage of that. And if we keep rolling over and doing nothing as they continue to proliferate nuclear weapons, we'll wake up one morning to see a giant mushroom cloud where once was New York city.
