Possible North Korea Progress

10:33 am EST June 22nd, 2007 | News | 5 Comments

Anybody else find it effing ridiculous that the Bush administration refused for years — years — to meet face to face with North Korea and the first time that we do, we may see real progress? Like me, are you kind of wondering what the hell that was all about and why are the Bushies so stupid?

    It’s Clinton’s fault.

    Actually, wait for the usual talking heads to start claiming this as a sign of Bush’s mastery of diplomacy…that the way to do things is clearly to refuse to talk to people for years, and then sit down with them after you’ve thoroughly destroyed your own global reputation and credibility.

    Brilliance! Bush does it again!

    They need N.K. as an enemy to scare their base into voting. However, at this point their base is 26% and that’s just not enough anymore.

    Actually, multilateral meetings were the method preferred by Foggy Bottom.

    Also I seem to remember a lot of criticism over “going it alone”, “not forming a coalition with our allies,” etc. Now are you all saying that we should go it alone and forgo input from out allies via a multilateral negotiating format?

    Just curious …

    “Now are you all saying that we should go it alone and forgo input from out allies via a multilateral negotiating format?”

    What’s wrong with you? Why do you feel the need to use strawmen time after time? Can you not form a thought without lying?
