Hillary goes to North Korea, still thinks she’s home
How much traction can blame Bush get overseas?
The secretary’s comments at a subsequent news teleconference only compounded the speech’s lack of strategic breadth. Asked her assessment of the Agreed Framework, the Pyongyang-Washington agreement concluded during her husband’s presidency, Clinton regretted that "the Bush administration completely walked away" from the agreement. She said that "information" about North Korea’s uranium enrichment efforts "should have been dealt with very seriously" but "in addition to the Agreed Framework," not in place of it.
This is a breathtakingly confused position. First, North Korea’s repeated violations of the Agreed Framework breached the agreement, not the Bush White House. Pyongyang cheated on the agreement’s central premise — the North’s denuclearization — and lied about it.
It might give the North Koreans an excuse and a talking point, but it only illustrates that the obamateur hour is still campaigning for office because it doesn’t know how to do anything else.
Yes it really IS the OBAMATEUR HOUR.
