Tony Snow - Liar

Today the mouthpiece of the administration said that Clinton's policies have led to the current problems with North Korea. Specifically he said the Clinton administration treated North Korea with “flowers and chocolates.” He also said the Clinton strategy “failed” and President Bush had “learned from that mistake.”

The facts can be found here. At the bottom of page three in this document:

The scorecard:

  • Bush I: one to two bombs worth of plutonium

  • Clinton: zero plutonium

  • Bush II: four to six nuclear weapons worth of plutonium
No, more than likely what's led to the current problems with North Korea started when Bush Jr. lumped them in the Axis of Evil which caused them to fire up the reactors immediately. Seems they figured the only way to prevent an attack was to be prepared. Talk about a self-fulfilling prophecy...

And I'm not saying the North Korean leadership should be trusted! But blaming Clinton six years into this administration is really really really getting old. Can these guys EVER stand on their own record?
