Maybe DDKem is Dubya??????!!!!????

Nah, I doubt Dubya knows how to use a computer.

[grazinggoat]

This policy is at the image of our president... laughable. Just can't beleive it... so funny.

George Bush is grounding Kim! What a laugh! Worst Foreign Policy ever by President Bush!

[adasher1]

Wow....I was thinking "there is NO WAY someone can put a positive spin on this one" and I was proven to be wrong by DDKem. I think it goes to show that no matter what this guy (w) does, he will always have a few lemmings running behind him. We look like idiots as a country. Our leadership is NOT leading the free world - its leading a host of ditto-heads that cannot think on their own.

The North Korean people CAN'T "go to the prom" so why should Jong Il be allowed to???

[arthurcl1]

This is so foolish to even make the news. If Kim Il Jong wants these things he can get them on the black market anyway from his pals in CHINA where these are all made anyway for the U.S. We don't make much anymore, we import almost everything form CHINA.

[squiz2]

Hahah! He just grounded Kim Jong Il! What next, he can't go to the prom?

[ddkem]

As long as Kim Jong Il represes the North Korean people and they are not allowed to live freely in a democratic society and buy these luxury items that Il seems to love, the ban should be in place. Once this dictator is gone or changes his ways (not likely) then he shouldn't be allowed anything he won't "allow" his people to have. Talk about "babysitting" - it's not the United States, it's Kim Jong Il! He's the epitome of a double standard...

Great work by President Bush and other world leaders who agree that this is a good sanction.

I am falling off my chair laughing. If this stunt works, G.W. will go down in history as one of the most innovative presidents since Jefferson traded worthless trinkets to Native Americans for great parcels of their land. I would love to be a fly on the wall of the
Cabinet room where he comes up with this stuff. Hey Condi, let's invade a country that can't possible defend itself, Brownie, they live in a Bayou, surely they can SWIM, lets embargo iPods and PS3s, that'll teach them. Hey, pass that bottle of MD 20-20 and gimme another moon pie!

Is it that Bush really believes that Americans are superior to everybody else in the world? Does he believe we are the "babysitters" of the world and everyone else in the world should listen to us without question?

This idea is just too stupid for me to come up with any other conclusions.
