North Korea On Cory Gardner: 'Psychopath,' 'Human Dirt'

Senator Cory Gardner should probably not count on getting a holiday card this year from North Korean leader Kim Jong-un. After the senator last week questioned the leader's mental stability, North Korea's foreign ministry fired back with equally unkind words.

The spat started last week when Gardner appeared on MSNBC saying that "most people would agree that Kim Jong-un is a whack job.

"This is a crazed maniac at the helm of one of the world's nuclear regimes."

According to UPI, a spokesman for the North Korean foreign ministry responded that Gardner is "human dirt" and a "psychopath" who "perpetrated wicked blasphemy" against Kim.

"That a man mixed in with human dirt like Gardner, who has lost basic judgment and body hair, could only spell misfortune for the United States."
