- Detritus, on 10/12/2007, -1/+5I'm sick of making Saints out of people before they've been been dead for a really long time... First it was Mother Terresa, and now McCain. Technically I think he's still alive, the will to live was just sapped out of him. Remember when he was a great man? I miss him, that zombie voting to allow torture that Rove put in his place is just in bad taste.
- Dopamini, on 10/12/2007, -0/+3As much as I like McCain, he's still a Republican, and in the end to win the White House he needs the Republican vote. The religious right needs a reason to vote for him, the neocons need a reason to support him...so it's easy to just go for their #1 American enemy.
Really, people need to stop playing the blame game. As long as we have nuclear weapons rogue states and terrorists will always try to acquire them, and there is little we can do to stop them if they set upon that goal. Isolation and containment is the only viable option for the first case without risking American lives, and we just have to pray weapons are being protected better in Russia in the second case.
I say blame Daffy Duck and the Acme company. They warped poor little Kim's mind.

- sonofdy, on 10/12/2007, -8/+2Well clinton did give North Korea TWO nuclear reactors....
- ElectroOverlord, on 10/12/2007, -0/+5Lets look at that in more detail...
North Korea had been suspected of maintaining a clandestine nuclear weapons development program since at least the early 1990s when it constructed a plutonium-producing nuclear reactor at Yongbyon, and various diplomatic means had been used by the international community to attempt to limit North Korea's nuclear work to peaceful and scientific means and encouraging the totalitarian state to participate in international treaties. In 1994 the United States and North Korea signed the "Agreed Framework", whereby North Korea agreed to freeze its plutonium production program in exchange for fuel, economic cooperation, and the construction of two modern nuclear power plants powered by light-water reactors. Eventually, North Korea's existing nuclear facilities were to be dismantled, and the spent reactor fuel taken out of the country. - Dewhead, on 10/12/2007, -1/+4Actually, he didn't. He agreed to give them the kind that generates only power and not bombs, but the US never did because NK broke their part of the deal. The US did give NK a butt load of money and NK agreed not to develop the bomb which of course they did.
- FlaG8r, on 10/12/2007, -0/+3Don Rumsfeld was on the board of the company that actually sold nuclear technology to North Korea.

- amanpour, on 10/12/2007, -0/+8There was a time I might have voted for McCain. I really felt for him when he was smeared by the Bush people in South Carolina. I thought he was a man of honor.
More and more he has become my biggest disappointment in politics. From kneeling before Falwell, to bending over on the torture bill and the violation of Habeas Corpus, he has registered one disappointment after another.
What a sad, shameful waste of a man.- whiskeymb, on 10/12/2007, -0/+5Agreed, I'm not a repubo-pool-boy like some commenters here on digg but I did like McCain a few years ago. Lately he's just become another partisan hack. He had a chance to actually get something done with the detainee bill and instead he bends over and lets bush violate him and this country in multiple ways.
This bill has done more damage to the foundation of this country then anything else in the last fear years. Interesting how just as the media starts jumping on this the Foley case comes out and completly distracts people from it. Pundits want to blame the democrats for hiding this information so they can make it a political issue but I think it's the republicans who released this info to distract from the eroding of our country that they continue to do.
***** Bush, ***** Chaney, ***** Condi, and ***** their supporters.

- dexterfrost67, on 10/12/2007, -2/+8Wow, just wow. How can anyone put their faith in individuals who take responsibility/blame for nothing. It's like a bad joke where everyone knows the punchline. No matter what happens Clinton did it. He's the ultimate boogie man. These ***** are priceless.
- ElectroOverlord, on 10/12/2007, -6/+1Are you Clinton? This post looks too apologetic!
- motivator, on 10/12/2007, -0/+4i'm not going to say clinton handled north korea perfectly, but it's been a while since he's had influence over this situation. it's not as if we just found out last week that they had nuclear aspirations. i'm gonna go out on a limb and say labeling a country as part of the "axis of evil" wasn't exactly a step in the right direction if we were interested in diplomacy.
- FlaG8r, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2But refusing to deal with them directly was brilliant diplomacy!
