LOL. And exactly how much success did Bush have at stopping North Korea and Iran from developing nukes? Zero. Zilch. Nada. Hell, I don't even blame Bush for that. The fact is the US has far less power to stop these guys than the press or either political party would have us believe. We're a paper tiger now. We can barely afford health care for our own citizens. How are we going to fight another two wars to stop the spread of WMD? Obama is trying and he's applying pressure, but he will fail, just like Bush did.
