RIP Otto Warmbier

[Bob Juch]

(CNN)Otto Warmbier, the American college student who spent 17 months in detention in North Korea, died Monday afternoon in Cincinnati, Ohio, his family said in a statement.

"It is our sad duty to report that our son, Otto Warmbier, has completed his journey home. Surrounded by his loving family, Otto died today at 2:20 p.m.," the statement said.

[Kim Jong Un] felt badly about it. He felt very badly. He tells me that he didn't know about it and I will take him at his word.

It's good to know that we have a president who takes Vladimir Putin and Kum Jong Un at their words, but not any Democrat or member of the non-Fox News media.

Otto might still be alive if Obama had reached out and visited KJU like he said he would be willing to. But he never did. So relations stayed at the status quo, or worse throughout his term.

I thought you didn't believe a word Trump said.

Fred and Cindy Warmbier: “We have been respectful during this summit process. Now we must speak out. Kim and his evil regime are responsible for the death of our son Otto. Kim and his evil regime are responsible for unimaginable cruelty and inhumanity. No excuse or lavish praise can change that.”

I long for the days when Republicans were opposed to praising dictators who were responsible for the death of American citizens. --Bob

I'd wager that most of us still are, you asshole!

You can't tell from their electoral behavior, and until that changes the behavior of Republican elected officials won't change. --Bob

Unlike the "all we really want is to kill babies" Democrats, we have other things we look at as well before we pull the lever.
