Well, at least Rep Kingston and Rep Putman actually raised the subject of DNC involvement and knowledge on talk shows yesterday. Its a start. Maybe they are finally learning a lesson. But given the silence of republicans today on miss hill's statement on the nuke test in Korea, blaming Bush rather than blaming Kim Il Jung, makes me think not so. Melmahn needs to issue a statement that says in typical fashon, dems have no understanding of national security or the threat, they continue to blame america rather than blame the enemy (or something like that).

No one outside the GOP cares what Mehlman says, just as no one in the GOP cares what Dean says; and many in the GOP itself are tired of the Mehlman agenda being a clone of the appeasing U.S. State Department agenda, when it comes to foreign affairs - words, words, words that amount to empty threats, providing no sticks to go with the constant diplomatic carrots.

The North Koreans tested a nuke because it was not given to China that letting Kim mentally ill do so would threaten China's economic relationship with us - no sticks.

China's statements today will prove their "cooperation" as for public consumption alone when everyone sees that no UN sanctions of any material concern will materialize.

Burns et al have relied on a one-way (their way) relationship with China, where China gets to pretend they are helping, and the US gets to pretend that Chinese "help" is making a difference.

All of this is not the GWB foreign policy we elected in 2000 and 2004.
