And once again I ask, “Where the #%*^ is Hillary?” This is HER job, this is happening on HER watch, and she needs to kick some Commie @ss on this one.

Smartest Woman in the World? Feh! If this was happening on ‘Condi’s Watch’ you can be darn SURE the MSM would be raking her over the coals and demanding the bombing start in ten minutes!

Yeesh!

I beg to differ with you, but it seems you appear to be rather ignorant of recent North Korean history (the last 3-4 years...uh, who was President then?).

These things in fact DID happen on the Korean Peninsula under Condi Rice's watch. She capitulated (with Christopher Hill as her messenger boy and Bush signing off on the whole fiasco). Unfreezing BDA in Macao was just for starters.

Kim launched a series of combined missile tests including Taepodong-2 (long range) and Scud and Nodong into the Sea of Japan. Kim conducted an underground nuke test at the same location. In short, nothing particularly different than the last four weeks out of the North Korean regime under this idiot Obama.

The Bush/Rice action was: Paper tiger words and capitulation; The US MSM reaction was NOT to demand Rice take war action on North Korea but in fact to praise her "measured response."

Read your history. Rice did everything short of dancing the Maddy Albright jig in the Worker's Stadium in Pyongyang before a DPRK mass game. Given three to four more months into 2009 in full "Legacy Mode" (aka appeasement in search of ONE foreign policy success before leaving office for academia) and she probably would have. Please kindly don't spread falsehoods here on FR just to cover for the previous administration (like Clinton before it) who is handling off a terrible situation irresponsibly to the next administration. This current administration also being woefully unprepared or with the will do to anything about it, under this Obama character.

The only time the MSM raked the Bush Administration over the coals on N. Korea was when they were actually doing some correct things, specifically in the 2002-2005 time frame, before they went totally Chamberlain on us w/respect to Pyongyang.
