Next time, to free American citizens from North Korea, they want a visit from Reagan's corpse.

However, like Lenin's embalmed corpse, Reagan's corpse is sacred. Next time some American lives will have to be sacrificed. What's the alternative? We must not offend people who idolize the sacred remains of Saint Ronnie.

Can't we all just get along? Yes, provided that the corpses of Lenin and Reagan are buried in Mecca.

1. I am so proud of jimmy Carter!!!

[Boojatta]

2. In little over a month, he'll celebrate his 86th birthday.

Would you like to make such a long trip at that age on short notice? Doesn't the government of North Korea have more important things to do, such as ending the food shortage in North Korea that it created?

6. I am more than a year older than JC and there is no way in hell I could

that trip, even two years ago, let alone now. He is quite a guy.

We really didn't appreciate him when he was our Pres. I know I didn't and I was living in the DC area at the time. I remember everyone making fun of him and his people when they were complaining about the real estate prices in Georgetown.

3. That guy shouldn't have gone there in the first place.

5. Do you expect people to wait until after death to see (the workers') paradise?

[JVS]

9. I expect people to either follow the appropriate visa channels or...

to get abducted by Kim Jong Il's henchmen in order to direct or star in his own monster movie.

7. this one "wondered across" by accident

[JVS]

8. Oh bull-fucking-shit! You don't accidentally end up in the DPRK

It's not like it's located next to the food court at the mall or something.

[Boojatta]

4. Compared to most North Koreans, Carter is rich.

Let us hope that they don't eat him as in the saying "eat the rich."
