A horrible symbol of America.

Taken from the US under JBJ and sitting in a N. Korean harbor eight years under Clinton.

What a Shame.

Putting quite a bit of spin on that one.

sitting in a N. Korean harbor eight years under Clinton.

Since the Pueblo was seized in an act of piracy, the Dems held power for 13 years, the Repubs for 24.

Your statement makes as much sense as saying 'eight years under Reagan', or 'almost 5 years under GWB'.

Not a Clinton fan, but it wasn't like Nixon, Ford, Reagan, Bush 41, or Bush 43 have done anything either.

"A horrible symbol of America."

True, it is a horrible symbol, however, it's harmless to us now. All of the comms gear has been vastly outdated and its purpose, after all, was comms intercept. There is one particular piece of equipment on the ship that, no doubt, was a particular concern, a highly secure means of communications but I suspect that either the Korcoms didn't know how to operate it or the NSA made it irrelevant.
