Dennis Rodman: "Passport for Dummies"...


What more can I say about Dennis Rodman that the "Worm"' hasn't already proven himself. Putting himself in a national / worldwide spotlight with his self-proclaimed new BFF North Korean dictator Kim Jong Un. Dennis Rodman participated in a Harlem Globetrotter tour to the rouge nation last week. In a visit NBA Commissioner David Stern described to CBS news as "Ridiculous, I think that if you're going to meet someone with the record on human rights, and nuclear testing in a reckless way, counterfeiting U.S. dollars, and exporting a horrible brand of whatever it is that he's exporting, starving his people, and locking them up, it should be done only in conjunction with the State Department with an agenda. If not, you shouldn't go."

Obviously we live in a unsettled world one where dictators like Kim Jung Un rules over a nation of people with whip and fist. Starving the people of North Korea to death and sending children into prison work camps. When Americans travel overseas we do so knowing with caution, especially since the events of 9/11 where shortly after President Bush named North Korea as part o the axis of evil. It's apparent Rodman resides in another altered universe where treating children like rabid animals and starving the elderly of medical care is accepted.

In a recent interview with George Stephanopoulos on ABC this week. He spoke as if he was an serving as perhaps an ambassador of the United States to North Korea. Describing Kim Jong Un as a humble friend to him that happens to like control and power. Well thanks Rodman we appreciate, you telling us that the dictator who kills and torchers his own citizens and continues to make threats to the United States is obsessed with the feeling of power and control. Rodman later described Jong Un an awesome person and personal friend of his. Exclaiming that he knows about Jong Un's threats and understands the human rights records of the rouge leader. His comments were borderline treason in some aspects, as he was wined and dined by North Korea's dictator.

No Dennis, Kim Jack-In-The Crack is not your friend he is an evil dictator. One of whom continues to work on nuclear weapons in order to bomb the United States. Rodman claimed that his new BFF wanted no war with the United States and simply wanted a phone from President Obama to talk about basketball. Well, making nuclear death threats sounds nothing like a simple phone call to talk about a piece of round leather that bounces on hardwood floor. I fail to know of one American that purchases a passport so they can visit Osama Bin Laden, Hitler, Saddam Hussein or Kim Jong Un. Then proclaim the dictators as nice guys who want a glass of cold milk and a cookie.

A few days after Rodman's visit to the inhumane dictator who runs prison camps out of children, while depriving an entire country of nourishment. Kim Jong Un again threatens the United States again. As I am writing this article I am almost sure the secret service has placed Dennis "The Menace" on some type of international watch list.

At end of Rodman's interview he tells Stephanopoulos "don't you hate me". No Rodman we don't hate and I doubt Stephanopoulos hates you as well but stardom is not an excuse for ignorance. So the next time Rodman worms his way into North Korea dining on 15 course meal of sushi, turkey, beef filet, kimchi, and whole roasted pig. Hopefully he takes some time to think of the cruel starvation and beat up hands of the citizens who prepared the food. Rodman probably ate more at one seating than most citizens in the impoverished land will eat all year. For Americans looking to travel overseas let this serve as your exclusive "Passport for Dummies" article. In the end we know its just Dennis being Dennis, hopefully he can rebound from this.....
