You were serious? You don't know of whom I'd be speaking?

I'd not go into the origins of the problem - the whole Carter, Clinton, Albright thing - that's unresponsive to the issue of actions taken currently to actively and intentionally undercut our chosen executive's choice of actions.

No, I'd probably speak of how Kim is a megalomaniac who is best fed and encouraged when Kerry, who is outraged that Bush tries to go it alone in the ME (a moronic assertion in its own right) is also, simultaneously, outraged that Bush WON'T go it alone in NorKor now. Naked partisan play that hurts our efforts to make the world safer, for the sake of the KosKidz votes.

Or by pronouncements by ex-presidents Carter and Clinton, both so eager to shed their own rightful blame that they're willing to blow through traditions of ex-prez silence and publicly scorn Bush for the same issue and thus encourage, again, the bad-hair-day nutjob.

And, need I name all the DemPols who chimed in on those exact same stoopid arguments? No, I think not.

Like I said - you already knew what I was going to say.

Now that you've said it, I still have no idea what you're talking about. Except that expressing disagreement with the President about a matter of foreign policy is treason.*

* Provided that the President is a Republican and the speaker is a Democrat. Republicans criticizing Republican Presidents are signs that the GOP is a big tent and entertains a diversity of viewpoints. Democrats criticizing a Democratic President are proof that Republicans are right. Republicans criticizing a Democratic President are patriots trying to prevent the President from diverting attention from his fondness for oral sex, etc.
