But what sense does it make to have a foreign policy that says we'll negotiate with North Korea, a state that is conceivably more of a threat because it already has such weapons, but we'll pre-emptively strike Iraq because we think it might be developing these weapons? Is this woman such an imbecile that she can't figure out the answer to this question, or is she only pretending to be, in the service of arriving at her pre-ordained conclusion?
