Kim Jong Il and Rupert Murdoch... brothers under the skin. So far Rupert has sold out his Conservative viewers with connections in Saudi Arabia, (Saudi's own much of the Fox Empire)now another sellout in North Korea! Some day Conservatives will wake up to being manipulated by this Jerk. (Bloomberg) http://www.bloomberg.com/news/.....-in-north-korea.html |

How is it a sellout? He's a capitalist first and a "conservative" second.
Either way, the only reason Kim rattles his nuclear sword is to get the attention of the world because his economy is in shambles, his people are starving, and its the only card he has to play. Allow N. Korea to have a economy, making them less dangerous while making money at the same time? Whats the downside? |

Spoken like a true capitalist! Aiding the economy of Iran... OK as long as you make a buck. (If Iran uses those bucks to buy nuke technology... so what!) Following the lead of GE and many other Multi-National companies... when they were banned from doing business with the "axis of evil" in Iraq... they did business with Iraq through a French subsidiary.(but they made money... lots of it!)
I just find it ironic that the Fox Group condemns N.Korea and waves the American Flag in our face... while they deal with a group that they describe as "The Axis Of Evil"!
You could call Fox N' Friends, Supporters of Evil... but that might drop their ratings. |

Abso-f'ing-lutely!!! I have to make as much money as I can, so I can continue to pay taxes to support the non-producers and illegal immigrants that you love so much. How will offering North Korea a legitimate economy make them more dangerous? |

Tbird... you really need to read a history book.
In the past N.Korea has starved their people and drained their economy to support the military. N.Korea will buy bullets before bread, and have done so many times as their population starves.
Promoting their economy, promotes their military. but as a good capitalist, and a non history person, you disregard those American Capitalists who have helped fund our enemies as our enemies shoot American troops. Capitalism.... MMMM!!! Bucks at the expense of American Blood |

no, you need to read a little history. The death knell to any oppressive government is education of the people, followed by the prosperity it produces. Once the people are educated, they see errs of their government. See the USSR and the satellites as examples...Any oppressive gov't main goals are to keep the people deaf, dumb, and blind. |

In the case of N.Korea... the people are not being educated... mostly they are being starved. From the late 90's: (BBC News) Up to 2.8 million people may have died of starvation because of North Korea's three-year famine and worsening economic crisis. http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/asia-pacific/57740.stmThe economy of N.Korea has slightly improved since then, but just slightly. Find a book marked 'World History', and read it. |

of course they are not being educated, they are being isolated, which is exactly my point... keep the people isolated and uneducated, and N. Korea will remain what it is. Continue to ignore and isolate them, and you continue the nuclear threat and proliferation to other counties. Engage them and give them a way out, and you have a chance for change.
What we have been doing is NOT working...you should have read that in your beloved world history book. |

OK Tbird... support a ruthless North Korean regime in the name of Capitalism... Really... Read the history of N.Korea since the '50's... before you continue. You may learn something. Try this from the US State Department, or any history of Korea. http://www.state.gov/r/pa/ei/bgn/2792.htm |

Nope... try new techniques because the OLD ONES HAVE NOT WORKED. Insanity is trying something over and over again expecting a different result. Compare China in the 70's to China today...it is more stable and less of a threat to us in a military sense Heck, if wasn't for capitalism in China, China wouldn't have the money to buy the bonds that are funding your hero Obozo's socialist projects.. |

Boxy, we live in a different world today. Today the globalist is more than happy to have FOX coupled with Korea. It has the approval ofthe globalist. I am shocked that you take issue with this. I personally don't believe this is driven by capitalism. It is a global/international movement. Everything you approve of. You should be happy...right? Would it make a difference to you if it was CNN or MSNBC? Ya see, it really doesn't matter.....it is just a globalist movement.
Hell, I remember staying home from work to watch us go to war during desert storm on CNN!! Remember Wolf Blitzer and Bernie Shaw??? THAT is when CNN was great!! They were at the top of their game!! They were globalist before we even knew the movement existed.
No big deal here boxy!!

this happens in small communities all over america.....like in Rotterdam.....and it really isn't JUST the government's fault at changing their diaper(not their business).....but it is the purchase of diaper changers to do it for the public.......and there are good/bad diaper changers....one would call them gangsters of sorts....... |
