BANGKOK, Thailand (CNN) -- North Korea launched a scathing personal attack on U.S. Secretary of State Hillary Clinton on Thursday after she likened the leadership in Pyongyang to "small children and unruly teenagers and people who are demanding attention."

At a meeting of southeast Asian nations in Phuket, Thailand, a North Korean Foreign Ministry spokesman blasted Clinton for what he called a "spate of vulgar remarks unbecoming for her position everywhere she went since she was sworn in," according to the state-run KCNA news agency.

The spokesman called Clinton "by no means intelligent" and a "funny lady."

"Sometimes she looks like a primary schoolgirl and sometimes a pensioner going shopping," the statement said.

The verbal tussle between the two countries culminated with the reclusive communist state making it clear that six-party nuclear talks, stalled for over a year, were effectively finished.

Clinton had earlier warned that North Korea's refusal to discuss its nuclear program could escalate tensions and provoke an arms race in northeast Asia.

Oh, I am sure that went over well in the Clinton household. I can see it now. Bill ducking lamps. Huma ducking out the door.

Don’t you just hate it when Kim Jong Il is right?

There’s no figuring out foreigners’ notions of what’s funny (cf. the French and Jerry Lewis) but he’s right about intelligence.

Small children and unruly teenagers don’t possess nuclear weapons and the means to deliver them. Sound action instead of sound bites is the direction she should be taking. But, then, all this administration consists of are sound bites.

Thailand?

[wolfcreek]

I have to agree...

Wait a minute...who were the unruly children?

[wafflehouse]

wow our secretary of state is doing a great job furthering our foreign relations

[skimbell]

Yeah, I thought that after 0 and ACORN stole the election, all of these foreign countries were going to just go week in the knees lovin' the U.S. again.

What happened?

That picture looks altered to hide her large hips.

We do not have grown ups ANYWHERE in DC in the democrat leadership. And most of the republicans are whiney children, as well.

We do NOT have a President who encourages people to step up to the plate and be accountable like Reagan and GW did. None of these leaders, especially democrats, are up to the task...the are immersed in name calling and character assination and protecting their turf and to HELL with diplomacy and vision.

WE need to dump them all , and FAST.

...U.S. Secretary of State Hillary Clinton on Thursday after she likened the leadership in Pyongyang to "small children and unruly teenagers and people who are demanding attention."

That sounds like she could have also been describing the prototypical democrat voter.

You nailed it!!

Quick, someone photoshop a jackolantern face on that thing.

[MrB]

They also don’t put their “dissidents” in work/death camps.

Of course, the left sees no problem in this, because it’s what they would like to do here.

[JudgemAll]

I think it’s meant as funny as in “drole”, strange and bizare.
