IF NOT THE YEAR.
PEOPLE ARE UNDERSTANDABLY WORKED
UP ABOUT THIS.
ACCORDING TO A NEW POLL, AND
THIS POLL WAS TAKEN BEFORE THE
PRESIDENT'S THREAT TODAY, A
MAJORITY OF AMERICANS, 75%,
BELIEVE THAT NORTH KOREA'S
NUCLEAR PROGRAM IS A CRITICAL
THREAT TO THE UNITED STATES.
WHAT I WONDER IS HOW MANY
AMERICANS EVEN KNOW WHERE NORTH
KOREA IS.

BOULEVARD, WHILE IT'S STILL HE

LEARNED.

STATES SHOULD CONSIDER MILITARY
ACTION AGAINST NORTH KOREA?
