Clinton hopes N. Korea's recent moves will not lead to trouble
2009-02-12
U.S. Secretary of State Hillary Clinton expressed hope Tuesday that North Korea's recent provocative moves will not lead to any instability in the region. ''We are hopeful that some of the behavior that we have seen coming from North Korea in the last few weeks is, you know, not a precursor of any action that would up the ante, or threaten the stability and peace and security of the neighbors in the region,'' she told reporters.

#11  i hope that old korean men would stop spreading manure in cabbage fields, but the likelihood of that happening is equal to the likelihood of north korea turning into a sweetheart of a country. god, i thought hillary was less gullible than this, now i see why bill got away with so much.

#10  What's this we sh!t kemosabe? ;)

I hope my rig doesn't break down fighting fire, but it's much better to inspect/maintain the vehicle before going out.

And yes, even the 'smart' ones are incompentent. The saying is, "DC is hollywood for ugly people," not "DC is hollywood for smart people."

#9  I "HOPE" President Zero, either grasps the facts, or is replace by someone who does.

Probability, Zero I'd say, he thinks all he has to do is open his mouth and magically all enemies are friends ( After all he IS GOD, Y'all proved it by electing him World Dictator.)

The strategy emanates from the top.

I HOPE I get a pony for Christmas.

#4  She's looking more like Albright every day. Physially too.

#3  So...this "smart power" that she and Obambi have been touting consists of groveling and hoping that our enemies won't do what they've been saying they will do.

#2  Hussein is a bumbling incompetent who managed to win the election, but has NO qualifications for Leader of the Free World. I expect NOTHING from him, and so will not be disappointed as he stumbles from one disaster to another. It will not please but neither will it surprise me.

#1  "Hope" is not a strategy. I hope she & Zero have one that goes beyond handwringing...
