#1 Now, now, I just I know I read someplace(s) that COMMUNISM + SOCIALISM was about Democracy, Justice, Equality and the "Rights of the People/Masses", NOT "succession" let alone "DYNASTIC SUCCESSION"??? RUS KIMBAUGH > its a terrible burden, just terrible D *** YOU, for Castro to have to routinely import and eat expensive hams while being forced by the decadent imperialist warmongering capitalist West to watch his people + Army starve.

#4 Joe communism has never been its theory rather raw power. The best way to describe communism from a cadre point of view is:
What's mine is mine!
What's your's is mine!

#5 Communism is a system that works. For proof watch any episode of The Smurfs. It's only when the evil capitalist Gargamel came into their village (to kidnap them and turn them into gold for profit) did the Smurfs have any reason to fear anything.

#6 Apparently, communism is also the best way to achieve gender equality, if the total invisibility of Kimmie's daughter is any indication. Just who decided Smurfette couldn't be a perfectly capable iron-fisted tyrant?

It was Lenin or Mohammed, but I can't remember which. Maybe Janet Reno?

Communist with knife and fork seeks capitalist with steak and lobster dinner.

#12 There's gotta be a way to exploit this. Maybe someone can bump Kim Jong Nam off, and "leak" incriminating evidence to Daddy that Kim Jong Un offed his brother and is looking to bump off his Dad next. After Kim Jong Un meets with the inevitable "unfortunate accident," plant a rumor that Kim Jong Chol is preparing a coup, with Chinese assistance, now that his rival brothers are out of the way. Plant a counter-rumor that Dad is about to snuff Kim Jong Chol and the head of the secret police and transfer power to the daughter. Pop popcorn. Watch the fun.

Of course, that assumes a competent CIA, which we probably do not have.

On the other hand, . . . 'Spook, you know anybody that knows anybody that knows people in Korea?
