John Bolton on ‘Rocket Man’ Name: Use of Sarcasm Works Occasionally

RUSH EXCERPT:
BOLTON: "Honestly, Rocket Man's a pretty inoffensive -- You know, use of sarcasm can help sometimes. The North Korean reaction is the standard Stalinist propaganda. I think you could expect that under any circumstances. But they are so close now to achieving their 25-year objective of getting deliverable nuclear weapons that time is short. The number of metaphors, we kicked the can down to the end of the road and so on, I think that's right. One thing to keep in mind it's not just North Korea's ballistic missile delivery capability that should be of concern to the United States. Anything North Korea has being a desperately poor country they will sell to anybody. They will sell their nuclear technology to Iran if they're not already renting a mountain or two to Iran in North Korea -- They would sell it to terrorist groups who have hard currency."
