Attacking North Korea could piss off China.  Not to mention the bases we have in South Korea would be nothing more than a speed bump to the North Korean Army. 

The question you have to ask yourself is do we want to lose shit loads of American Soldiers over trying to to bring back to American reporters?  It's easy for those who only see war from the TV to vote yes, but I know a couple guys who may resent the idea.

I say try diplomacy first.  If they refuse, then maybe, maybe some covert action is needed.

Kind of though it would require some effort on your part.  Just hang around your local gamestop until you see someone bring in a PS3 to trade.  Gamestop fucks people on trade-ins and only give about 200$ for a PS3.  Offer the kid 225$ cash and you'll probably get lucky.

It's never going to end.  People want the good life but aren't willing to work for it.  "People make choices and choices make people."  That sums it up right there.  If you make bad decisions, don't cry or play the victim when the door slams shut on your hand.

Not everyone is entitled to a good life.  You have to earn it through blood and sweat.  Yea, some people inherit billions or hit the powerball, but if that's your plan then I feel sorry for you (actually I don't, contempt or scorn would be better adjectives). 

You don't have a right to a nice home or to own a car or have every channel cable offers.  Those are luxuires.  Hollywood and the Left have done a damn good job convincing people it's a right, but I'll remind you it's not. 

The American dream is being self supportive and not relying on others.  It's not having a $500,000 home and a 50" plasma in front of you with Olbermann on blaiming the successful for all of our problems while you make 12$ an hour.

I had to learn the hard way so please don't tell me I'm preaching from a pedistal.  My family was straight middle class in Appalachia.  When I was growing up my family's combined income was maybe, maybe over 50k when I was in high school.   It was probably around 40k for most of my youth.  As I've said before, I was a complete retard in college and racked up about 55k in debt just boozing and buying food.  That's right, I had about fifty-five thousand dollars in debt because I had a credit card that I swiped at the blink of an eye.  I took out loans to pay off the credit card.  My money didn't goto college because I was on a full scholarship that paid, tuition, room and board and gave me a monthly stipend of around 300$.  So I openly admit I was a fucking moron and as I said, I had to learn the hard way.

No one helped me at all.  I worked as a janitor cleanging up a women's toilet filled with shit, a customer service rep for a cable company, poured concrete and sold video games at Game Stop to make ends meet.  All this while being shunned by my family because I got kicked out of ROTC my senior year of college for a bullshit reason (that eventually brought me back to college 2 years later, but that's a different story for a different time).

When I finally got into the Army I had an apartment on the badside of town where I was woken up all the time because white trash were having domestic disputes and lived off of grilled cheese sandwiches and Chef Boy Ardee or however you spell it. 

It took all of that to make me, a pretty intelligent guy to finally get it.  And shit, I still buy shit I don't need like the new Harley I ordered 3 weeks ago but at least now I can manage my finances and not live paycheck to paycheck.

Amercia at large has forgotten this and people feel they have a right to a standard of living they can't/won't earn on their own.  Anyone who says this is mocked or ridiculed.  I learned along time ago that people don't want to be free.  True freedom requires that you not be dependent on others for your lifestyle.  People want the freedom of comfort which is what they're going to get when the welfare state comes to fruition in the next 20 years if not sooner.

So the next time you charge your dinner because you don't have the money to pay for it outright or buy that car/house/whatever that you can't really afford but delude yourself into thinking you'll just cut expenses elsewhere, recognize that you're part of the problem.  Having debt isn't a bad thing as long as its manageble, but if after you've calculated your monthly finances and added in all the luxuries (boozing out, fast food, etc.) you better still have a nice cushion (1,000$ at least) so that when shit really does happen and you're removed from the curtain of comfort that is America, you don't have to come to others to bail your ass out.

What a piece of shit.  Like she and her fucking family are so fucking special that airmen need to be on standby so she can parade between San Francisco and DC.  The DoD doesn't have to accomodate her nor any other Congressman; they don't work for them.  I wish shit like this would get mainstream attention and show how wasteful some of these assholes in washington are.

Don't get involved with this guy.  He's going to do 12 months in Afghanistan and if you stay with him, he's going to depend on you for support.  The last thing he'll need is for you to realize this isn't what you want 4 months into his deployment because it's too hard on you and for you to send a dear John letter saying let's be friends.  I've seen it first hand far more than I'd like to admit.  Enjoy your time together, but remember that you're going to end up fucking with his head far more than he could ever fuck with yours.
