If that is all the better that the United State can offer to represent this once proud and mighty nation I would wager to say as Americans we are a sorry bunch. However look what kind of a**hole we have running the show.

One thing that can be said is at least it brings some attention to North Korea, but is it the right kind of attention. ?
Conrad73: Dennis is a blithering Idiot if he can't see how that NK Dictator is using him! But then,Lenin had his Useful Idiots,so why not Kim?
Both NK and America are masters of the Spin. Personally I'm not sure which Country will make the most of this one. even though America say "He's not there as a Representative of USA." But I agree Dennis is a Pawn

nonsmoker: Sorry Bob, I cant see that being a criteria, Can you give an example.
Sure this is my personal view and as such it can be far from the truth ; Rodman is controversial,or avantgarde figure ,as such he seems love to make the headlines .Korea is using a well known figure to promote their agenda

Makes sense Bob, I See your point. I had hoped the man was a bit deeper
Just the age that we live in. I sat down to a meal in a restaurant the other night and on the wall before me was a huge landscape picture of a Communist parade, the jeans I tried on earlier in the day, the brand name is Soviet.
We've become so detached from the street and community and brainwashed by the media and the academic cathedral with its gospel of equalism and tenets of political correctness that this ironic veneration of Leftoidian tyranny has become commonplace.
reb56: couldnt,hang w/ leader,who killed his uncle!
I don't think I could go on the grounds of bowing to that stupid statue. I'm not very religious but I understand the sentiment that flows through them all in reference to false Gods.

Thats a very nice observation.
Democracy is a race run to inspire winners Socillism is a race run to inspire Losers And Communism is the Idea of a race where everyone wins.

He has not been in the lime light in eons and well.....where money is concerned and fame any publicity is what they are looking for. Be it good or bad. Soon he will come out with a book or a new movie or something. He has always played the card of the nut job. And I must say he does it quite well. And it has paid him quite well. He has in my opinion never been that great of an athlete nor an actor. So I will sit back and just see what he has in the brew.
tomcatwarne: Yes bearing in mind this guy puts families in prison for generations, and had his uncle eaten alive by dogs, I think he is so evil that people look at him as if he is a figment of the medias imagination, but he does exist and does these terrible things. This has revealed the whole decadent hypocrisy of our leaders.
Sad and True, All the Politicians are to busy making money to worry about making peace.

Democracy and Socialism are unfortunate words. Elements of both can work well if the levels of social trust and cultural homogeny are high, but these social organisations fail within diverse and inequal societies as commonality between neighbours is the bedrock of the community and the community is the foundation of civilisation and the state.
If we look at the melting pot that is the modern United States we see nothing but egoism and individualism because of this pronounced diversity and inequality, even the seemingly egalitarian ethics of Liberals is mere posturing to show that the individual is immune to the societal consequences of Liberalism. The praises of community vibrancy are sung loudest by those that have never lived in a multi-ethnic ghetto, liberals laud their beliefs to show how educated and affluent they are as an individual, that is, it is a raw egoism with an egalitarian veneer.
And Communism is very much like Libertarianism. Two Aspie utopian ideologies that do not compute society in Human terms, and then pursue abstract fantasies of a stateless society based on grave misunderstandings of Human nature(so they never work in practice). I find that Aspie idealist types tend towards the Marxism, and jaded and hateful Aspies often become Libertarians(particularly Objectivists).

I take it you mean. All Political systems are made up of individuals, individuals who comply to standards of the structure set out by the state. Some states just demand a tighter structure of emulation than others.
The real question is. Is interventional war justified when one system sees fault in the other. ?
