In short, they think moralizing is fine. They just want to have a monopoly on the franchise. Jonah Goldberg

America has had to deal with eccentric dictators in the past: Idi Amin, Muammar Qaddafi, Ming the Merciless... but now the security of the world is threatened by Kim Jong-il, a nerdy, pompadoured, platform shoe-wearer who looks like something you'd put on the end of your child's pencil.

And once the child starts thinking about this mess he begins to disintegrate as a child and turns into something else--an adult, an animal.
