"Seoul's Defense Ministry said Monday it will pull back dozens of its frontline loudspeakers on Tuesday.

It says Seoul expects Pyongyang to do the same.

South Korea had turned off its loudspeakers ahead of Friday's summit talks, and North Korea responded by halting its own broadcasts." foxnews.com/world/2018/04/30/latest-s-korea-to-remove-loudspeakers-at-border.html

Seoul had blasted propaganda messages and K-pop songs from border loudspeakers since the North's fourth nuclear test in early 2016. The North quickly matched the South's action with its own border broadcasts.

"South Korean President Moon Jae-in said Monday that President Trump deserves to win a Nobel Peace Prize for his role in talks to denuclearize the Korean peninsula and end the decades-long war between the North and South.

    George Bush made a mistake. We can make mistakes

    George W. Bush was a mistake, starting from letting him enter politics in the first place, his father should have known better.

    Electing him in the first place I might forgive, but re-electing him after his first 4 years' performance was inexcusable.

    C'mon, Joe - you know better than that. George wasn't a mistake when he entered politics. He was a mistake when his daddy entered his mama without wearing his little raincoat. He was a much bigger mistake, when his mama carried him full term. Mistakes like George are usually called "miscarriages". There were lots of mistakes. What else was Junior going to do? Sit at home, and suck the government teat, or go into politics? He's certainly not qualified to do anything else!
