Harry, Harry, Harry,
The genesis of the nuclear program in North Korea is already well known. It began with Jimmy Carter acting as semi-official ambassador to North Korea, and making them promises which to Jimmy were sacred, but pooped all over by first Kim Il-Sung, then later by Kim Jong-Il. It was further exacerbated by no less a personage than Maddie Albright, who delivered on the promises that Jimmy made, but was herself disappointed by the revelation that the North Korean father-and-son Communist kings lied to her.
The Family Kim knew a good deal when it was offered, and proceeded in the belief that non-performance on their part would not suffer much reproof from the regime of the "Shan" (previously known as the "Former Occupant of the Oval Office, 1993-2001"). Now, the "Shan" talked tough, but not where Kim Jong-Il was likely to hear him, and even if word of all this trash talk got back to Kim, (wink, wink, nudge, nudge), the "Shan" didn't really mean it.
Something happened in 2001. The "Shan" left office, and was replaced with a real President. When George W. Bush said something, he meant what he said, a very disconcerting thing for those who had grown accustomed to the doublespeak of the years when the "Shan" played at the job. The Kabuki theater was over. Grownups were once again in charge.
And Harry thinks this is a bad thing.
Well said all. But Harry needs another investigation. Weren't these the same hypocrites who accused Republicans of non-stop investigations of Clinton?
