With tensions rising between the U.S. and North Korea, we'll talk with Leon Sigal — director of the Northeast Asia Cooperative Security Project — about whether sanctions actually work, and then look at growing support in Congress for greater missile defense spending. Afterwards, we'll discuss the U.S. Postal Service's push to gain more freedom to raise the price of stamps.

    I suggest we send Leon Siegel to North Korea to negotiate the stopping of their nuclear testing and rocket launching and talk of bombing Guam. We would agree that he can return home upon successful conclusion of these talks which he believes is the only solution.
