A Modest Diplomatic Proposal
Kim Jong Il is clearly insane, and so it may require unusual diplomatic methods to get through to him. Clearly, not much seems to be working at present, thanks in large part to China and Russia. (It would be interesting to see what Peter Beinart would have to say about the potential for "moral leadership" emanating from the international institutions like the UN).
CNN reports that the "Dear Leader" is a huge fan of Michael Jordan's. So why don't we arrange for his hero to call the dictator and tell him to knock it off? Who knows? Maybe he's just crazy enough to listen . . .

But he claims to have nuclear warheads (Thanks Bubba and Jimmy!) and he's test firing long range missles against the will of the entire world community.
Perhaps those on the left would prefer to simply ignore this threat as well.
Just how right was George Bush when he named Iraq, Iran, and North Korea as the Axis of Evil?
He was dead on! (No pun intended)
I never thought I'd say this, Ditto, but you almost make a good point here:
"Wow Greg, thats like me saying a wooden barn is a fire hazard then I sneak in the middle of the night, set it on fire and everyone says I'm a wise sage."
You are right that George Bush was merely pointing out the obvious, which the previous administration did not or would not do. How could they? That would mean admitting they were duped.
But your analogy fails with the sly inferrence that Bush somehow ignited this situation.
