Obama also planned an afternoon rally with 1,500 U.S. troops at Osan Air Base.

Wow, a special envoy. I bet those communist savages who starve their own people will just roll over now. Better yet Barack, put North Korea on double secret probation. What a moron.

Just finished watching "Terror in Mumbai" on HBO, about the terrorist attack in Mumbai, India. Just reinforces how idiotic Odumba's stance about negotiating with these people is. They don't care about their own lives, much less anyone else's. The callousness these young men displayed in murdering innocent people is mystifying to anyone who does care about their own life, their families, or anyone elses. How Odumba would even consider trying to reason with any terrorist group or country is beyond me.

It's simple he's not an American he is a globalist with dual or triple citizenship! Oh! and he's a communist ideologue as well!
