Are we tough enough now

Ok so something I don't understand. North Korea launched a missile 2000 ft. up. And what is President Obama doing? 6 party talks but nothing else to tell them not to launch it toward anyone. President Bush would have shot it out to the air, I think President Obama is just afraid to look bad. he wants to make everyone happy so he looks good. We need to be tough and stand up to those out there who try to push others around. N. Korea has been an issue for many years and we have been strong with them before now is not the time to pull back. they need to be treated like a spoild child and punished and sent to their room. We are a wealthy strong country and have always been seen that way, but if we don't do anything the worlds view will change and other countries will start to cross the line and push the limits.
