It now looks like another hostile nation has figured out how to solve its fiscal problems. According to a FoxNews.com headline: “North Korea reportedly willing to sign peace treaty with US to end conflict.”

 

While North Korea rejected the idea of resuming talks to abandon its nuclear program on Saturday, it said it would welcome negotiations for a peace treaty with Washington.

 

“North Korea’s foreign ministry made the statement one day after President Obama and South Korean President Park Geun-hye said they were ready to open talks with Pyongyang on sanctions if they were serious about dissolving its nuclear program, according to Reuters.”

 

There certainly should be no surprise in North Korea’s decision to reach a peace agreement, because Iran has set the example for them to follow. They won’t have to change a thing, while using their own inspectors to present false information on their continuing nuclear weaponry program. However, the U.S. will give them billions anyway, including the repeal of current sanctions, the same way that Iran duped Kerry and Obama. North Korea better hurry though, because the gravy train stops running in November 2016.

 

On another matter, Eugene Scott @cnn.com writes that “Jeb Bush said Donald Trump discusses foreign policy like a reality show star and that support for the Republican front-runner will eventually wane. 

 

On CNN’s “State of the Union," Bush also said he has little confidence in Trump's ability to appropriately handle America's nuclear weapons, telling Jake Tapper: “I have grave doubts, to be honest with you." 

 

Bush went on: "He's not taking the responsibility, the possibility of being president of the United States really seriously. For him, it looks as though he's an actor playing a role of the candidate for president. Not boning up on the issues, not having a broad sense of the responsibilities of what it is to be a president. Across the spectrum of foreign policy, Mr. Trump talks about things as though he's still on 'The Apprentice.'"

 

Reading Jeb Bush’s analysis is remindful of the 1972 satirical comedy, The Candidate in which Robert Redford plays the fictional Bill McKay, the idealistic, charismatic son of former California governor John J. McKay.  

 

On election day, McKay wins. In the final scene, he escapes the victory party and pulls his manager Marvin Lucas (Peter Boyle) into a room while throngs of journalists clamor outside. McKay asks Lucas, "Marvin ... What do we do now?" The media throng arrives to drag them out, and McKay never receives an answer.

 

And that’s precisely what would happen to the U.S. if the electorate gave the election to Trump.

 

Which brings us to today’s update on Bill Clinton's wife.

 

Newt Gingrich wrote a column posted @washingtontimes.com today, titled: “Are more lies the answer for Hillary.”

 

Gingrich notes that: “She is lagging in some state polls behind Sen. Bernie Sanders, a candidate who, when he announced, was considered to be among the least plausible nominees the party could find.

 

“Part of the reason for Mr. Sanders‘ success is undoubtedly his ideological appeal to the hard-left of the Democratic Party. But Hillary’s collapse likely has much more to do with the fact that she keeps lying, and that she keeps getting caught, than it does with Bernie’s charm.

 

“In a recent Quinnipiac poll, the word most mentioned by respondents in association with Hillary Clinton was “liar.” The runners-up were “dishonest” and “untrustworthy” — offered by a combined 394 people. The next most common term, “experience,” was offered by 82.”

 

What’s remarkable is that while the article says nothing new, and isn’t really very interesting, written by a political hack, 162 reader comments follow, all of them appearing to be negative toward Bill Clinton’s wife. 

 

And therefore, since that seems to be the case in most articles on the subject, one has to wonder just how long the major media can keep distorting the truth for her. Because, while Sanders may not be electable as POTUS, huge numbers of people prefer him anyway.

 

Which leads to the ongoing question: Joe Biden, Mayor Bloomberg, Jerry Brown, and Starbuck’s chairman and CEO, Howard Schultz, are you reading this? 

 

That’s it for today folks.
