Richardson and Principi should be ashamed to be used as props for the North Koreans. This is contemptible. The USS Pueblo is still carried as a USN commissioned ship on active duty. Are these guys total fools? I hope someone in the GOP raises an uproar. This is f**king unbelievable!!!!

I'm sure there wasn't much they could do about it at the time. From the ABQ Journal story on the visit:

[Richardson] called the Pueblo visit ''a lot of propaganda, but we're guests here.''

Principi, who was a Navy officer at the time of the Pueblo's capture, said it was disconcerting to have something from that era still on display. ''It's very unpleasant to hear the assertion of continued aggression against the Democratic People's Republic of North Korea,'' Principi said.

As I said earlier, this will sting Richardson badly.

Bullsh*t. They could have cut the tour short right then and there. They should have refused to get out of the car.

I have sent emails to Senator Warner and Congressman Wolfe. The WH is next. There is absolutely no excuse for this.

IF, it becomes widely known....since he is a dem, the DBM will most likely ignore it.
