ROTTERDAM, The Netherlands -- Former U.S. President Bill Clinton says he had plans in the early 1990s to attack and destroy North Korea's nuclear facilities after the secretive communist state was found to be producing weapons-grade plutonium.

At the time, he said, North Korea had plans to produce between six and eight nuclear weapons per year.

He had plans... like he 'had plans' to kill Osama Bin Laden...to invade Afghanistan.

I've got plans to do a lot of things before I die, too!

That's Clinton's Secretary of State Madelaine Albright toasting Kin Jong Ill, dictator of North Korea.

The headline smelled of Scrappleface. Instead it stinks of the wannabe Clinton Legacy.

Of course the government (or I should say, the military) has all kinds of plans. Clinton, of course, trying to glom credit for them. Doesn't mean doodley.

Yep, all kinds of plans, talk, meetings, blah blah blah. Trouble is, other than diddling interns, he never did anything. All show and no go, that's our Bill.

Yah, but you really do have plans even if you never complete them - Clinton never ever had such plans to do this.

He tried, he really tried.

Why did the fool give them nuclear capability in the first place?

he never did - the Pentagon did, as it is supposed to... he signed a deal giving them 100 million dollars instead (that sum is probably what was used to fund this weeks NK nuclear tests)

Typical "progressive" twit.

Long on plans, short on real-world action... Just another Nancy Pelosy with chest hairs...

Well, if you parse his words...which is necessary whenever he opens his piehole...you can understand that the US Military has contingency plans...aka war games...for every conceivable threat.

So, it doesn't surprise me if there were scenarios drawn up to deal with a North Korea threat.

But it's not like Bubba hit the intercom and said, "I want plans to deal with North Korea on my desk by 5PM".

And did he or any of his defense team share them with Pres. Bush?
