Do you or did you believe that NK was attempting to develop nuclear weapons? Do you or did you think NK would be inclined to use them?
I thought most people who disliked Bush, thought that Bush made up the NK threat, just like they thought he made up the Iraq threat.
Bush's "cowboy diplomacy", pretty much is to "call" - to say to the opponent that I don't believe you - to eventually look them in the eye and say "do you feel lucky? Well do you, chump?" Now you seem to be saying don't believe the North Koreans, that they have lied in the past and would do so in the future and that they may actually be a threat.
Surely, I must be wrong. I must be misunderstanding your point. Please forgive me if I am, but I think I am in shock.
