Dennis Rodman Talks North Korea's Kim-Jung-Un on with George S'This Week' tephanopoulos



Its interesting that George Stephanopoulos was annoyed with Dennis Rodman's take on Kim Jung Un.

Now I might be a small-time blogger from Ohio, but maybe Rodman's friendship with UN, might actually help with negotiations.

The last thing you want Kim Jung Un say now is, "wow I befriended this guy Rodman and now he's  ripping me in front of some little guy named George".

We all now, that Kim Jung Un is a unpredictable and very  dangerous world figure and  even Rodman told Stephanopoulos,  "I don’t condone that. I hate the fact that he’s doing that", when the ABC host pressed him on human rights issues against the dictator.

But in defense of  Dennios Rodman, he wasn't in North Korea on a diplomatic mission, he was there on a tour with the Harlem Globetrotters!

I think the real problem is that people like George don't understand how Rodman got so close to Kim Jung Un in the first place.

But why not?

Just  because guy wears a suit and talk lawyers speak, it  doesn't mean that person has the skills to talk an agitated dictator  In fact, too many commentators and politicos who are Monday Night Football tough, where they think they are more effective as the guy on playing TV, when in actuality, they lack any true skills and they should stick to playing Madden.

Dennis Rodman was probably effective with Un because he didn't have an agenda, he likes to party as well as the fact he played with Michael Jordan in the NBA. Evidently, Un found all of these things attractive, which allowed him to open up  "The Worm," (I'm not thinking George Stephanopoulos doesn't fit any of those criteria)

In any negotiations, you want that person feel safe to diffuse a situation 

If Dennis Rodman makes Kim Jung Un feel safe, so be it.

If DennisRodman's message to President Obama from Kim Jung Un is to call him and  talk basketball, fine.

If this leads North Korea stop testing nuclear weapons, isn't that great?

Who are we to judge  Rodman?

I hear the snickers from TV and radio announcers, but what makes them geniuses on world issues?

I actually heard a guy calling a baseball game in Cleveland (err..Tom Hamilton),  making jokes about Rodman (He  made another joke comparing Kim Jung Un, to Gangnam Style's Psy,..yeah that's real clever man).

But if Kim Jung Un liked the Cleveland Indians and he wanted to talk to that announcer, would that be crazy?

No, that announcer would probably say something like " I felt it was my patriotic to duty to help America by talking to Un." (I hate hacks like this, who think they are superior).

So if Rodman's connection with the North Korean dictator keeps him calm enough so he doesn't do anything crazy towards America that's fine with me.

As for George Stephanopoulos, if he is so annoyed by Dennis Rodman's visit, why doesn't he come up with  solutions for human rights issues or do something to help ease the tension between North Korea and the United States...but I guess he's too busy cashing those big checks from  hosting "This Week" and "Good Morning America" to worry about something like that.

Keep helping us to stay safe Dennis! Just don't listen these critics and tick that guy off!!
