North Korea welcomed former President Bill Clinton to Pyongyang with flowers and hearty handshakes Tuesday as he arrived in the communist nation on a surprise mission to bring home two jailed American journalists.
Clinton was making his first trip to North Korea in hopes of securing the release of Laura Ling and Euna Lee, reporters for former Vice President Al Gore's California-based Current TV media venture who were arrested along the North Korean-Chinese border in March. But the visit could reap rewards beyond the women's release, with Clinton and North Korean officials broaching the nuclear impasse, diplomatic relations and other long-standing issues between Washington and Pyongyang, analysts said. Kim, the vice foreign minister, also serves as North Korea's chief nuclear negotiator.

Didn’t he do enough damage the first time????
If he can get the women released, good.
But as for ending their nuke threat, LOL, Dream On
should have sent Algore to get his followers back himself
Who knows whar Obama is doing. No doubt he's going to offer the little backwards commie some kind of deal and part in their new commie world order dreams.
The Clintons are trying to embarrass Obama. They don’t like him.
1) Isn’t it illegal to travel to NK?? (But I guess not for demigods. . . .)
2) I pity the poor Secret Service agents; it must be a nightmare trying to maintain security.
What nonsense. Surprise visit?
You just don’t land in Pongyang and say,
“ Hellooo, just dropped by for a minute to
see ol’Kim.”
The media needs a good thrashing until
our moral improves.
“I did not have sex with those women...”
Kim: What girls?
Clinton: Those that met me at the airport would be good for starters.
After all, these women work for his veep, albore.
Where is the oldbore crank these days?
Maybe they’ll keep him
Don’t forget the check book in the back pocket. I think I saw it bulging.
These are AlGore’s people in NK. Where is he?
If Billy Boy is in NK, he’s probably there to pick up his pension check.
A chance to pick up 2 young women—Bubba’s all over it.
Good luck and God’s speed to him.
Bill Clinton cannot be embarrassed...
“Don’t forget the check book in the back pocket. I think I saw it bulging.”
Sir, that was no checkbook.
