Did you happen to notice that S. Korea and N. Korea are "talking" once again?

Talk's often cheap, esp. when it involves North Korea. I wouldn't consider "talking once again" to be a major achievement. Actual positive results from the talks would be different but just talking isn't significant IMO, not with that regime.

That stuff was helping to open up their society to some extent.

There was no significant amount of "that stuff", North Korea didn't change much.

So Clinton giving Korea nukes was good, President Bush trying to suppress them was bad and now Obama fumbling the Korea problem is good. Got it, that is your opinion and you can safely bet that informed people will almost all disagree with you. Of course the sheople that rely on liberal media for their disinformation will probably agree with you.

The first thing that a LEADER has to do when dealing with a bully is remain strong. Obama's apology tour was not lost on the thugs like Kim. President Bush's "either you are with us or you are against us" speech sent chills up their spines. Obama's apology speak is probably sending chills up their legs just like Olberman.
