#1 The Americans, he said, were forced for 10 hours a day to study and memorize the writings of North Korea’s founder, Kim Il Sung, writings that he called "class struggle from the perspective of a crazy man."

...but I repeat myself.

#2 whether he spent 40 years in confinement or not a traitor is a traitor and should not be given special attention. Treat him like any soldier today would be treated.

#3 Sorry to be a candy ass on this one but I think this guy has already spent 40 years in prison and should be given the break he got. He said after one day, he realized his mistake. He spent 40 years regretting it.

#6 That 40 years sounds like harder time than he would serve in any US prison.
Not to excuse what he did, mind you.....

#7 I would still take an opportunity to f*ck with the LLL mind and give him a Thanksgiving Presidential Pardon.

#8 POLL ON WHO'S BETTER, POST-DEFEAT: Jenkins or Kerry?

#9 Jenkins paid the price and is unlikely to run for President, but I am not going to defend him. It's either pretty much set him free or go full bore and do an Admiral Bing.

#10 Come to think of it... having to read ShoGun 20 times is enough punishment.
