I am appalled that Governor Richardson and Secretary Principi would allow themselves to used for propaganda purposes by the North Koreans, who illegally hold the USS Pueblo. Moreover, their presence on the ship was humiliating for the United States of America and makes a mockery of the sacrifice of the crew who were held for 11 months. One member of the crew was killed during the attack on the ship.
Richardson claims to be an experienced diplomat. This episode demonstrates how incompetent he really is.
All you have to do is watch him during this appalling MTP appearance. It is almost clownish.
WOW, kabar, I didn’t realize that Richardson did that.
Thanks for letting us know...and you prove the point. The fact that it wasn’t a HUGE story, says a lot of what the dem candidates can get away with..
I wrote Senators about Richardson’s honoring of North Korea’s seizure of our warship. I will never forgive that scumbag.
Richardson has been alleged to have a very unsavory past, to the extent that a lib commenter stated that Bill Richardson makes Tom Delay look like a choirboy.
He did not supply details, which is a pity.
