Which is why he went back to it. After they had successfully tested a nuclear weapon. When you boil it down, you either go to war to stop them OR you go back to appeasing them, unless you happen to be dealing with a state that can be brought around the way Libya was by GWB's actions. DPRK is not one of those states. So what would you have had him do? GWB inherited a policy of appeasement that allowed it to happen. As soon as GWB took office it getting rid of the AF was very high on the list of priorities and received an appropriate level of attention. The AF was killed as soon as there was sufficient evidence available to show it was being violated. You simply CANNOT reasonably blame GWB for this mess. The ball was dropped late in his term, I agree. So the question is, would he have had your support in going to war over it? That's a yes or no question. (BTW, the testing of a nuclear weapon is neither here nor there; it was going to happen and is a direct result of the policy of appeasement that Clinton put in place in the 90s).
