What do you think Kim is telling other world leaders when they call to encourage him to cooperate?

[NNN0LHI]

My guess is the firsts words out of his mouth are, "Saddam cooperated and they lynched him."

How many times you think he has said that recently?

1. I have heard too many North Korean stories from people who've actually lived/visited there...

I just see the dude as a batshit insane sociopath and sporting a nasty inferiority complex.

Not entirely unlike a certain former president that I can think of...times 100.

2. However invading NK is a somewhat large objective!

5. Making fun of the R sound is fairly racist and insulting to Asians in general

the slur is not confined to Kim Jong-il and should avoided by anyone who claims to be enlightened.

6. It's a reference to an Oscar-nominated song from

Team America: World Police, that famous Parker/Stone movie with puppets, not a racist statement.

7. Yes it is racist

The joke could have been appropriate(in the above post) if spelled with a L and not R. The joke is that a dictator is a lonely and isolated megalomanic. What is funny about the R sound? It doesn't enhance the joke in any way.

It churns my stomache just like Mickey Rooney's yellowface bit in Breakfast at Tiffany's.

10. So Huckleberry Finn is racist too?

[wuushew]

11. No

9. Well Hell...that makes it ok then.

8. You are so right. Kinda childish.
