10/20/06 Question #10 Ch.6 The Executive Branch

North Korea just tested a nuclear bomb last week. They have thus joined the nuclear club of seven other countries with nuclear capability. If you were President, how would you handle this situation? What steps would you take? How would you respond?

If I were president... I would try to calmly explain to N. Korea and the other countries that they could possible kill not only themselves but the rest of the word b/c nuclear power is very dangerous.

Hello

I am Mobus Dorphin, although you pitiful earth-mortals may know me as David Horowitz. I am the king and absolute ruler of Tubontha. As a world ruler, I know about these sort of issues. Our planet has found the secret to the gift of immortality. Due to the lack of a large amount of people viewing this blog, I will share the answer.

Since the dawn of man, man has wanted to keep track of his daily day to day activities. Cavemen wrote paintings on the wall, men of Medieval times discovered ink and paper, and therefore were able to record history. Since then, many diferent eras of humaity have been keeping diary-like objects. People liked to keep them, as it made them feel special, like someone actually CARED how many times you defecated that day (I use that term only for the fact that this is a school-type-blog, as I am thinking of a better 4 letter word), or how many times you plopped your butt down on your TV and watched your couch and wondered why nothing interesing was on, and the complained to your TV company that the channel selection sucks. Then we get to the modern era of diaries, the BLOGS. This made it so people could actually READ about your stupid day to day idiocy. So on any given day, I can go to blogspot and read some whining little teenager comlain about how his parents aren't letting him smoke crack. It is CRAP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! The key to immortality is therefore don't bomb each other, and STOP USING BLOGS!!!!!!!!


As supreme ruler of Tubontha, I am converting my planet to as system of anarchy, hoping that we'd be able to get along with each other without government. Perhaps Earth could strive for that. The first step is getting rid of blogspot. But don't tell anyone that, you're supposed to find that out on your own.

Best Wishes,
Mobus Dorphin,
Supreme Ruler of Tubontha

well I would respond by telling the head of the country of North Korea that you can cause a nuclear holocaust all around the world if you ever decide to bomb some one meaning you could cause the down fall of man with the press of a button just like the rest of us with nuclear weapons

If I were president of the United States I would try to reason to korea that testing a nuclear bomb puts lives in danger. If they don't reason with us and they try to threatin our country then Ill just have to do to korea as I did to japan after pearl habor sry.
