    I agree with libertyfirst 100%. to still believe that we can ask n korea to give up their weapons is ridiculous. the u.n. has been trying that for years with iraq, n korea, and now iran to no avail. It's sad that democrats would rather us look like wimps than actually stand up for ourselves and do what had to be done. As for the war on terror, Iraq did have wmd's and they sent them to syria when the weapons inspectors were searching. they made inspectors wait outside each location and put the wmd's on trucks to syria. They have satellite proof of this although the democrats seem to have gotten to it, because I haven't seen it since. The fact is every democrat knows they're in syria, but would never admit it because they would be admit there were weapons in the first place. In case you didn't know, when clinton - a democrat - was in the white house he called for the same thing but never did it, so why is a republican criticized when he actually goes through with it. It makes no sense.

    Admitting that other nations exist, have opinions and are worth listening to and talking with is not pandering. What we see coming from Cheney, Hannity, Beck, Limbaugh and other Republican leaders is pandering, pandering to the lowest common denominator.
