"Always bugs me how much sense this guy makes... he must be some wacko liberal." Pat ain't happy about the hijacking of the conservative movement. Whatever else you might say about him, and I can say a lot, he isn't one to sell out his ideals for a chance at power. Unlike too many Republicans these days.

JF, Then, we should pull our troops out of Korea, where they are hostages in harm's way. If the South wishes to appease the North, let them run the risks and assume the consequences. I agree with pulling out of Korea, but I think the sentiment in South Korea these days is swinging away from appeasement. Tenchusatsu

As we cannot ensure Iran and North Korea are free of nukes without invading, and we are not going to invade, we should put both on notice, as we did Moscow in the missile crisis, that if any WMD used in an attack on the United States is traced to either, a full retaliatory response will follow. But if they wish such relations as we had with China and Russia in the late Cold War, they are on offer. Of all that I've heard this makes the most sense in dealing with the N. Koreans. >>>Then, we should pull our troops out of Korea, where they are hostages in harm's way. If the South wishes to appease the North, let them run the risks and assume the consequences.<<< Yup. The south is strong enough to stand on its own two feet. As one reviews the ledgers of his foreign policy, Bush seems to have alienated or antagonized just about everyone on earth, with precious little to compensate us for our war losses. And if we are about to jettison his cowboy diplomacy, perhaps it is time to look again at the successful policies Bush and the neocons dismissed and deplore. For, unlike theirs, these policies never failed America. Well said. I am tired of this ongoing nightmare where the crazies are leading the country.
