Holy Korap. Bill Clinton met with Kim. <img src="http://i2.cdn.turner.com/cnn/2009/WORLD/asiapcf/08/04/nkorea.clinton/t1home.clinton.nk.04.gi.jpg"> Hopefully they didn't follow through with the subtext of those photos and spit on each other.

Bill back on the world stage, great story all around and a great outcome.

The part where the North Korean News Agency description of the trip gets closer to the truth than did the White House press release of calling this a private journey w/o any gov't sanction is a bit disturbing.

I was thinking something along those lines also. North Korean propaganda is some of the funniest in the world.

I've read more than once that guy is always drunk on cognac. The North Korean, not Bill of course. I'd rather China, Japan, et al deal with the nut job and not always be in the spotlight on every side of the globe on a daily basis.

the North Koreans got what they wanted here, a visit from a prominent former head of state. there was a good line on one of countdowns last night, i think it was craig ferguson, that Bill agreed to do the job when he learned it was about bringing home chicks.

Would have been fucking balls if Kim Jong Il just went all crazy and took Clinton hostage.

Any idea what he had togive up in exchange? Or will we have to wait for the waivers on Dick Cheney to expire? Later

Imports enough Hennessey to satisfy any rapper , Wikipedia says Kim has been Hennessey's #1 customer over the past decade. When his doctor urged him to quit smoking Kim then banned smoking altogether in NK..
