The Clinton Legacy: North Korea’s Nukes
“North Korea’s first detonation of a nuclear weapon may have taken place during the watch of George W. Bush — but it was under the Clinton administration’s watch that the communist regime began gathering necessary materials and constructing the bomb.
As Western powers race to confirm that North Korea did in fact explode a nuclear device in Gilju, a remote region in the Hamgyong province, some see it as a culmination of weak U.S. action during the 1990s that led to this fateful day.”

So, let’s finish this misleading piece with some facts:
So, if the situation left by Clinton was so bad, why did Bush not try to fix it? Why did he, in fact, make it worse? I guess this is another example of Bush “kicking the can down the road” to another president.
Now I’ve read the Newsmax piece, and one particular line caught my eye:
…which is the same republiCON controlled Congress that is currently being forced to own up to their duplicitious ways. So whose fault is it again? President Clinton, who tried, or GOP controlled Congress that failed to fund the initiative, or kick-the-can Bush, who funded the dear leader’s nuclear ambitions?
Or are we looking through the rose-colored glasses Bush seems to put on every morning:
Once again in a state of denial. But at this point, nothing this failed administration does — or doesn’t do — surprises me.

One person robs and shoots another person.
StopBush! blames the Administration for “not creating enough opportunity” to work for money, thereby driving the person to rob, and he also blames the gun manufacturers for “enabling the crime,” giving the person the means of shooting someone.
That’s the same logic upon which the preceding comment is based.

Actually, just the opposite. Maybe had the dear leader’s nuclear ambitions not been funded by the administration, or had the congress funded the initial 1994 agreement, this whole problem could have been avoided.
A more apt analogy would be a class bully (Kim) was wreaking havoc on the playground. The hall monitor (Clinton) tells the kids to settle down and they’ll get milk and cookies. Then, the janitor (Bush) throws candy at the children on the playground, in the interest of playground serenity. Meanwhile, the PTA (Congress) decides not to pay for the milk and cookies, so there’s no reward for the children to settle down anyway, and now they’re hyped up on sugar. And then the janitor tries to blame the hall monitor for the bully acting up.
Sorry, I shouldn’t be using children in such a metaphor before replubliCONs. You’re all probably all worked up at the thought of all that firm, young flesh…

Milk and cookies? You’re an idiot, SB. It was Clinton that gave N. Korea the means to create a light water nuclear reactor. That’s fact. America has been sending around $200MM in “aid” to N. Korea yearly. That’s fact.
As for “firm, young flesh…”, why don’t you cum to San Francisco and worry about all the liberal fags running this City. Tell them your concerns and see how far you get. As for Clinton, he sticks (it) to interns.
