Rep. Carson: ‘Unfortunate’ N. Korea Has ‘Very Irresponsible,’ ‘Impulsive’ Leader

RUSH EXCERPT:
CARSON: "Well, I think the provocation that we're seeing coming from North Korea is not unusual. We saw the same actions under the Obama Administration. We saw the same actions under the Bush Administration before him, and even president Clinton. It is unfortunate that north Korea has a very irresponsible leader who is was impulsive and a threat to the Korean peninsula, but having said that I think that removing any negotiating strategy off of the table should not be our ultimatum. I think we should be firm in our posturing. I think we should have a reasonable show of force, but I also think that they have a lot to lose as well. Listen, much of their artillery is soviet-era equipment. That's not to say that we should take their regular testing of missiles lightly."
