#1 "Typical reptile paper"? That line alone merits an 8.5.

#2 Fred, adopt that one as a slogan:

"Rantburg -- not just a typical reptile website of the ultra-right conservative forces!"

#3 This is encouraging. The KCNA is starting to show their old form just in time for a chance to medal in the Olympic spittle spewing competition. The lead paragraph (typical reptile paper) puts them in contention for the gold. Although they did lose a few points for the archaic canard (told such a whopping lie) later on.

#4 I believe "Reptile Website" is a trademark of Little Green Footballs. Better be careful, the lizardoid minions are everywhere.

#5 I'd be more worried if they were being visited by scientists that actually have some capability.

The phrases "typical reptile paper," "whopping lie," "floating the fiction," "smear campaign," "openly spreading sheer misinformation to fool world public opinion" and "fishing in troubled waters" are not appropriate in Rantburger comments under my posts from the New York Times and Washington Post.

#7 Typical reptile paper of the Japanese ultra-right conservative forces Sankei Shimbun again spread misinformation to tarnish the international image of the DPRK.

My personal troupe of floor lizards said there isn't a grain of truth to this. Who are we to believe?

#9 tarnish the international image of the DPRK

Hell, they'd have to clean it up in order to tarnish it.

#10 Mike, I thought Paul Krugman and Maureen Dowd were graduates of the KCNA writers workshop.

It is not what is said. It is what is not said.

That has a great ring to it. Been out in the field for 3 days and did not get my ration of jiuche and white slag. Got to file that one as a keeper!
