Bush threatens North Korea by withholding ....ipods?

[CptStern]

wow first sanctions now no ipods for our little communist buddies somewhere across the world ...I think it's a little north and to the left of Numbers

The Bush administration wants
North Korea's attention, so like a scolding parent it's trying to make it tougher for that country's eccentric leader to buy iPods, plasma televisions and Segway electric scooters. The U.S. government's first-ever effort to use trade sanctions to personally aggravate a foreign president expressly targets items believed to be favored by Kim Jong Il or presented by him as gifts to the roughly 600 loyalist families who run the communist government.

GW Bush: "we'll get them where it hurts! no ipods for the commies!!!"

Kim Jong Il: "meh I'll just use the internets and buy one off e-bay ..in your face Georgie!!!"

GW Bush: "they have the internets on computers now? wow, Ok plan B: commence firing nuclear weapons ..oh and dont worry about accidentily hiting South Korea ..we'll just blame the new guy"

It would'nt matter plus, I don't seem King Jung Il jamming out to his 'Ponyae - mp3' anytime soon.

you should probably read the article before posting

It is Washington's first-ever attempt to use trade penalties as a way of personally aggravating a foreign leader. They target items believed to be favored by Kim Jong Il or presented by him as gifts to the roughly 600 loyalist families who run the communist government.

We have our own variety of Bushist politicians here, fortunately they are not as powerful.

What, and thats a bad thing? I imagine Jim Kung Il will survive whatever future wars we might have with the North Korean leader and even manage to be hired under Microsoft where, despite his administrations fall, he'll still yet have a job as the former leader of his country to dance accross our television scenes mocking our victory as a blackish Jim Kung Il'ish silhouette with a nifty new iPod. He'll probably be listening to stomp or something.
