    We should sent it to Korea as a gift filled with America’s finest such as Chuck, Arnie, Sylvester, jcvd, seagal, slick will and Mel Gibson and they should jump out of it when it arrives at Kim Jong Ils palace and he will be so star struck that they won’t have to bust their power moves and they can disarm the country and make the world safe again.
