FREE return trip for Korean Detainees?

[Sickpuppy]

Why the f**k are we footing the bill to “rescue” any dumbshit that goes to North Korea? It’s their own f**king fault and stupidity that caused them to be taken captive. The State Department official position (in part): The Department of State strongly recommends against all travel by U.S. citizens to North Korea (Democratic People's Republic of Korea, or DPRK). Travel by U.S. citizens to North Korea is not routine, and U.S. citizen tourists have been subject to arbitrary arrest and long-term detention. North Korean authorities have arrested U.S. citizens who entered the DPRK legally on valid DPRK visas as well as U.S. citizens who accidentally crossed into DPRK territory.

If these dumbshits ignore the numerous warnings, why are my tax dollars being spent to save their ass?? Either let ‘em rot, or follow Texas' way of dealing with drivers that ignore road hazard warnings. If you drive around a “road closed” barrier and get stuck crossing a swollen stream or river, we’ll save your ass, but then send you a bill for the cost. How about sending a bill (for the several million $$) to these idiots we just saved from N Korea??? It’s uncollectible but let’s seize their assets and ruin their credit, that will send a message to the other dumbshits considering a visit to North Korea.

Why?

Because Obama couldn't resist kissing the ring of Kim Jun Un.

A better question is why did Obama send our Director of National Intelligence on this mission, along with a private communication.


The State Department denies that Obama made any concessions in exchange for the prisoner release, but the denial should not be taken seriously. Would Obama — would any president — admit to making concessions to North Korea?

Even if there was no quid pro quo for the release, Clapper’s visit itself was a concession. As Rosett says, “the visit to North Korea by America’s intelligence chief was, in itself, a form of tribute, in which the U.S. superpower stooped to beg a favor from Pyongyang.” The new North Korean dictator has pulled off “an in-your-face power play that the rest of the world will understand, even if Washington does not.”Now, Kim Jong Un can say that he too has coerced an American president into paying tribute.

We won't find out until mid-January, if then.

This may be a new record for I'va Littleone - he's now up to 7 words in a row but still doesn't address the issue.

Seven words and sick puppy still cannot comprehend.

I understand that one of them had actually tried to defect to North Korea. Burned his passpost and asked fro asylum. Kind of like that army deserter that Obama traded five very bad terrorists for.

Fucking idiots. You never know with Odumbo; his intel man may have brought him a list of agents to prove those were not on it..........

We're still waiting on that story. The election is over. The court martial will not impact the election returns at this point; so, when are they going to start?
