Next Wednesday, let’s attack North Korea. C’mon US Government. Don’t be chicken.

Under the Republicans, you attacked Saddam Hussein because he was building a nuke. He wasn’t. That was a lie.

But let’s say it was true, instead of a lie from Bush and big Dick Cheney. Let’s say Saddam was building a bomb as Bush said, even though he wasn’t.

If we attack Iraq because it was building a bomb, why do we let North Korea slide?

If we’re not going to be hypocrites, we can’t attack one evil country (Iraq) and kill millions of its people in the process, and let another evil country do the same thing and just get away with it.

As a taxpayer, I expect and demand satisfaction. Let the guns roar. We start by targeting North Korea’s nuclear factory. We know where it is. Then we Pyongyang ‘em, lay their capital city waste. Bomb ‘em back into the stone age. Before they can do it to us three years from now.

Remember, Iraq, now going into its seventh year, was originally a “punitive strike,” as stated by Bush the boy and his master big Dick C. Punitive means punishment, and strike implies quick, like lightening. Over with quickly. They never said, “War of attrition,” which means a long time.

What is it about our government, and the Republicans in particular, the party that loves war, a white man’s party, most of who never served in the military? Why did the big tough swaggering Republican phonies during their eight years in control of Congress let North Korea develop a bomb and a missile to deliver it?

I think it’s because Iraq is safer to target. We can still act the big guys. Are the American people actually proud that we can defeat a country in which a refrigerator and shoes on your feet are considered luxuries? They (Iraq) are so much smaller than us. They don’t have a navy. They don’t have an air force.

Should a heavyweight boxer be proud he defeated a bantam weight boxer?

I think we’re yellow. We only attack countries that are small, impoverished, and who don’t have a navy, or an air force, and who can’t fight us back except for ragged insurgents (I never said they were good guys).

We’re afraid of North Korea. They can fight back. The problem with only fighting backward, small countries that don’t have an enormous, colossal military, and an array of sophisticated doomsday weapons that would amaze God himself. The problem with that is, it makes us seem like bullies, and cowards to boot.

In the figurative schoolyard of the world, as the biggest kid in the schoolyard, we only pick fights with much smaller, safer kids. North Korea is a smaller figurative kid, but too tough to mess with. He’ll fight back and probably cause us some pain.

I call for an attack on North Korea and a formal declaration of war. I tell you what. I’ll help out. I’ll have us at war with those sonsofbitches, and I’ll make it look like it’s their fault.
