That's what Bill Maher just said, and it seems that his audience agrees with him. It also seems that John Bolton agrees with him.

Pancakes, I noticed that you totally ignored Bolton's opinion.

Oh, yeah its the same deal. But, even though I'm not a Clinton supporter he got blind sided by Carter. Carter negociated the deal "unofficially" and made it public and Clinton was forced more or less by politics to go along with the Carter plan.
What it all boils down to is all of Korea's neighbors want to bribe the North Korean's and they want the U.S. to come up with the money.
As I understand it we have to send that Dictator a bunch of aid before he has to do anything. Its baloney. I'd blockaid North Korean and starve them out. They'd either give up those nukes or starve. That's the deal I'd give them.

It amazes me how we just continue to appease these people and bow down to them. As soon as they get what they want, they'll go right back to what they were doing before. And not only that, Iran sees all this and the deal will most certainly cause them to believe they can get away with the same damn thing. Why don't we ever learn? Is it going to take the complete destruction of an American city before we wake up in this country. I'm beginning to believe it more and more each day.

Can you imagine an audience that doesn't agree with bill? He would have the building cleared. He basically has a show to massage his ego, little else.
This agreement is a little different than clinton's. Bush refused to negotiate with kim unilaterally, to the wails and screams of liberals. Now, multi-laterally, an agreement was made with CHINA overseeing it, among other countries. China, remember, basically feeds North Korea.

If John Bolton says so I believe it. What we REALLY need to do is start economic sanctions against N Korea instead of negotiating with them.....I feel we need to use strong arm tactics against them....the same with Iran.

the Koreans get more from Bush than Clinton gave them before...the Bushies bashed Clinton for it and Bush had no idea what it would take because he never tried until recently
