Despite the President's repeated threat to "tell the U.N. that you're not playing nice," North Korea has announced plans to shoot their latest missile toward Hawaii on the 4th of July. Apparently Kim Jong Il's previous insults to the President were too subtle.

Nobody likes a buttinsky, so our President is doing his best to avoid meddling in any situation which doesn't increase his personal power. Plus, after just excusing a Black Panther for intimidating white voters with a nightstick, he doesn't want to look like a hypocrite just because a few Iranian voters get beaten. Or worse.

Even here in the prestigious offices of Hope n' Change we sometimes tire of all the bad political news, and suggest to our friends and family "let's talk about something happy in the news." This is usually followed by a long, long silence which is finally filled when someone remembers a story like this one.

By the way, there's only a 1% chance of the planetary collision happening, and it would be billions of years from now. Which is, astoundingly, the same odds and timeline of paying off our new national debt.
