Okay. We'll continue this in a year or two. You know he'll fail.

Also, I bet I know more about the US government and doings than most Americans. Do you really have no idea how much the US is covered on international TV abroad? This is the second time I've said this to you.

That guy is smart. He should be the PM.

My question was "You don't need to criticize EVERYTHING do you?" and you answered it without answering it.

The stimulus bill already nailed his coffin.

Anyway, this guy don't know how to confront North Korea in this very negatively dynamic time. I am very disturbed to listen something about Obama who can't even deal with North Korea.

Yes yes yes...why does Obama even try? He's already failed.

I am curious as to what is wrong with the way Pres. Obama is approaching N. Korea? What would you do different? I'll repeat that. What would you do different?

Obama: North Korea must avoid more provocative acts

WASHINGTON, April 5 (Reuters) - U.S. President Barack Obama called on Sunday for North Korea to refrain from further "provocative actions" and said its launch of a Taepodong-2 missile violated United Nations rules.

"With this provocative act, North Korea has ignored its international obligations, rejected unequivocal calls for restraint, and further isolated itself from the community of nations," Obama said in a statement released from Prague, where he is traveling.

Obama said the launch violated a U.N. Security Council resolution that prohibits North Korea from conducting ballistic missile-related activities of any kind.

"I urge North Korea to abide fully by the resolutions of the U.N. Security Council and to refrain from further provocative actions," he said.

Obama, who is on an eight-day visit to Europe, will call for the elimination of all nuclear weapons across the globe in a speech later on Sunday that he hopes will lend credibility to his message in atomic disputes with Iran and North Korea.

He said in the statement the United States was "fully committed" to maintaining security in northeast Asia and would continue work through the so-called six-party talks to ensure verified denuclearization of the Korean Peninsula.

Those talks group North and South Korea, China, Japan, Russia and the United States.

"North Korea has a pathway to acceptance in the international community, but it will not find that acceptance unless it abandons its pursuit of weapons of mass destruction and abides by its international obligations and commitments," Obama said.

Well I guess that means that Tenchu should start a new thread to educate we American idiots on what the our government is really doing.

I noticed how he offered no solutions and only criticism.

And to stay on topic(skin of my teeth), isn't the UN still debating on what to do about the whole mess?

Remind you of anyone?

Oh I could name a few. I honestly feel bad for Obama, I'll admit, I voted for McCain, but Obama is my President now and I don't want him to fail. The guy has so much pressure on him and everyone is all gloom and doom. This is completely rediculous. You have to give the guy at least a year to make any kind of judgement on what kind of job he is doing. He's human last time I checked and it's not going to be perfect.

I think it's crazy, but i agree we have to give him more time to fix mistakes. I am also hoping he doesn't make it worse.

Bush and Clinton did the same thing... nothing significantly improved confronting North Korea. For average South Koreans, any words from some US president talking about North Korea are not seriously to them. They are merely empty words.

What would you do different? I'll repeat that. What would you do different?

Let South Korea lead the North Korea issues, NOT America. It's that simple.

Unfortunately, being the US president doesn't give you the ability to not have express an opinion about significant world events.

To have no comment is the same as endorsing it. And how could the US possibly endorse N. Korea testing missiles, whether they are intended for S. Korea, Japan, or America itself?

I am talking about Obama's reaction to the N. Korean missile launch. What would you do different?
