Johnson Brown:
Democrats Assail Bush's N. Korea Policy
By LIZ SIDOTI

WASHINGTON (AP) - Democrats seized on North Korea's brazen act to criticize President Bush's record in confronting the communist regime, contending the administration's focus on Iraq ignored legitimate threats.

Democratic Sen. John Kerry, the president's rival in 2004 and a potential 2008 candidate, assailed Bush's policy as a ``shocking failure,'' and said, ``While we've been bogged down in Iraq where there were no weapons of mass destruction, a madman has apparently tested the ultimate weapon of mass destruction.''

El Cabong!:
It was the democrats who gave North Korea the reactors and the plutonium during the Clinton administration that allowed them to build this bomb. This is what democrats did. The North Koreans had a treaty to only use the reactors for producing electricity. It was the Bush administration who caught them cheating and breaking the treaty and exposed them for trying to build the bomb. This is why the Bush administration refuses head to head talks with a liar and a cheat.

So tell me, how are the demorats right on this issue? Do you know much about this besides what the recent news reports offer?

The Democraps are a 100% right this time?  I don't think so. The Bush administration and sitting Republicans have let the sands of time slip through the hour glass and have failed to act on many issues that people who put them in office to accomplish. That said I would cringe at the thought of having anyone of the opposition in their place.
Since  President Bushes first day in office the Democraps have done nothing but complain and logjam every issue but never have a better solution. Where was Clinton when trade center bombing 1 took place. Where was Clinton when they bombed the  Kohl, and all the other terrorest bombings that took place against this country during his watch.
 What would Kerry be doing now to keep America as safe as the Bush administration has since 9-11 possibly some endless talks in the UN or maybe he would turn to France for some help. Or send Jimmy Carter he was always great at diplomacy.
Iraq has not been the cake walk that it was cracked up to be  however Saddam is gone, Qaddafi is out of the atomic weapons game and Muslims terrorist are being rounded up each day. The terror network is disrupted, America has a foothold in the region  and resources are  now being used in Iraq that could have been used to kill us here in America.
Yes Iran should have been the correct target for war in that region however the American people can hardly stand to fight in a debilitated country as Iraq was  how would they stand up against a more formadable enemy. America has the military capeability to deal with any situation what it doesn't have is backbone to follow through. Dealing with Iran and Korea requires back bone. So Democraps cut the election time bluster and come up with some real solutions besides the UN and working with the global comunity and Jimmy Carter  because honestly looking back over recent history it would be a waste of time.

Carlyle:
There is one crucial difference between North Korea and Iraq. If the US attacked North Korea the North Korean artillery would demolish Soul. The US needs support from South Korea to deal with North Korea but it will never get that support.

Hmm...  Let's see.

Under Clinton,

1. Al Qaeda murdered Rabbi Kahane HY"D in 1990, exploded a bomb
in the WTC in 1993, and continued to organize for 9/11.

2. An assassination attempt against Bin Laden that was likely to succeed
was aborted.

2. North Korea developed its nuclear program.

3. Israel was pressured to sign the Oslo accords, thereby surrendering
partially the responsibility for its own defense to its mortal enemies,
and not only that, but supplying them with the weapons they later
used to kill Jews.

4. Clinton promised to release Jonathan Pollard, but then reneged
on his promise (surprise, surprise).

5. Christian Serbs were bombed in Yugoslavia in a totally unnecessary
and unjust war.

I'm not saying Republicans are the best, they're clearly not.  But they
are certainly better than Democrats.  The Democrats are good
in only one thing---assigning blame.

As far as I'm concerned, I will never vote Democrats, no matter
what.  The choice for me will be between a Republican and a third-party
conservative, and if voting for a third party will indirectly assist Democrats,
then so be it.

We already know what is the outcome of "least worst" and "lesser of
two evils" considerations.  There is a huge number of conservatives on
many web forums I visit that are disgusted with Bush and regret voting
for him in 2004.  But no suggested alternatives ever included
voting for someone like Kerry.

If Tom Tancredo switches to the Democrat Party, I will vote Democrat
(But of course, he won't for obvious reasons).  We should vote based
on a person's character and issues, not party affiliation.
