Ted, > Not much thanks to your president's veto. Link or it's Harry Reid B.S. ... Don't be stupid, Ten. The Bush veto can't be news to you.

15,000 Protesters Defy Government in Seoul By CHOE SANG-HUN nytimes.com ( Are they MAKING them eat American beef in Korea? ) SEOUL, South Korea — Thousands of people opposing American beef imports clashed with the police in a protest that continued into early Sunday morning, hours after Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice urged South Koreans to accept their government’s decision to lift an import ban on beef from the United States. More than 15,000 people demonstrated in central Seoul on Saturday evening, despite a warning from President Lee Myung-bak that he would begin to deal sternly with protesters who have been disrupting his government for almost two months. Ms. Rice met with Mr. Lee and Foreign Minister Yu Myung-hwan here on Saturday after they saw progress in efforts to convince North Korea to abandon its nuclear programs. North Korea submitted a long-delayed account of its nuclear programs last week and demolished part of its main nuclear complex. But in Seoul, the protests against American beef eclipsed the talks on North Korea’s nuclear status, posing a challenge to officials here and in Washington. The protests against American beef imports began in early May and dwindled over the past two weeks. But they picked up momentum again after the government moved to lift the import ban on Thursday. Many South Koreans fear that American beef is not safe from mad cow disease. “I want to assure everyone that American beef is safe,” Ms. Rice said at a news conference here on Saturday.
