I bet the plane came from the CIA. Who else has a 737 with absolutely
no writing on it beyond a registration number (that may be bogus)?


I don't know.

maybe John Travolta?

If Nixon had won in 1960 there wouldn't be any Soviets in Cuba because

Castro would be a footnote in history and they would speak english in

Kim asked specifically for Clinton. Clinton had the fortitude and

him. What has come out here in rec.boats is foolish even on a Harry
scale of political one-sidedness.


I imagine they asked for Bill Clinton because Hillary wouldn't go. It
does give Kim a level of satisfaction with plausible deniability from
the US government. Actually not a bad move in retrospect as long as we
don't care what Kim says about it..



Do you boys *ever*' do more than guess?

When Kim Il-sung died in 1994, President Clinton sent a note of
condolence to his son, Kim Jong-il, the current dictator, who remembered
Clinton's thoughtfulness 15 years ago, and wanted to repay that act of
"kindness."

Also, as his term was ending, Clinton was involved in ways to improve
relations between the U.S. and North Korea. The idiot who succeeded
Clinton thought *that* was a bad idea, and now, eight years later, the
North Koreans have nuclear bombs. Yet another legacy of Bush the Idiot.


Careful Harry.

Now that Obama has been in office for six months, you can't blame Bush
for anything over the past 8+ years.

It's all Obama's fault now. Just like it was Clinton's fault when the
economy tanked after Bush took office. Huh?

discover Jesus and therefore be admitted through the pearly gates, right?

You've assumed he has grace, why not estimate its boundaries?

Not necessrily. However, I believe you assume He doesn't and is
limited.

If you are right Kim III will drop his nuclear program now, stop
threatening Japan and maybe we can bring home the 50,000 guys we have
on his southern border.
I bet none of them happen



What are you talking about? Clinton *did* send a letter of condolence
and Clinton wanted to de-escalate the situation between the U.S. and
North Korea, and Bush did more or less ignore ways to improve relations
with North Korea and, worse, make our relationship with that nation
deteriorate even further.

That has nothing to do with me being "right." It has everything to do
with our failed diplomacy during the Dubya years.

What Kim does now after eight years of Bush is unpredictable. He may
respect Bill Clinton, but who knows how he feels about the U.S., whether
those feelings can be improved, or whether his illness totally clouds
his abilities.

The point is that we could have been in a better situation vis-a-vis
North Korea but for the incomptencies, failures and wrong-headedness of
the Bush Administration. You righties keeping wanting to forget that
Bush more or less ****ed the world over during his presidency.
