#1 Pray tell, for what purpose? Roh's a stroke-job. I wouldn't accompany him anywhere - especially if it would serve to prop his tranzi ass up at home and puff up his coterie of too-soft too-stupid too-toolish for prime-time huckleberries.

Pfeh. This is just tfoolishness.

#5 Roh probably ambushed George: Who the heck knows where or what Kaesong is. Bush probably thought it was Roh's summer place. You cant keep track of all these funny names.

#6 Well,well...what goes around, comes around! "W" put those 'evil horns' on the Norks, now he's going to have to be the one to yank em off! I see alot of cheese in the corner of his mouth. Let's remember...he apologized to the Chinese exactly the way they wanted him to, to get that EP3 plane back (unassembled of course) and it's crew!!!

#8 . . . presidential spokesman Kim Jong Min later Tuesday downplayed Roh's remarks to Cabinet ministers and vice minister-level officials . . . , saying they should not be interpreted as an agreement between the two leaders.

Translation: Roh shot his mouth off. Sorry, trolls.

#12 It should be noted that Mr. Roh speaks no English and Mr. Bush speaks no Korean. I suspect that what we have here is a case of a simple exchange of courtesies in the hallway being blown out of proportion by the Koreans. I really blame the translators used by the Koreans. This will be the third time that they have bungled it rather badly. The first was when President Bush used the term 'this man' when referring to then President Kim Dae-jung during their meeting in Washington in 2001. The Korean press claimed that President Bush was 'talking down' to President Kim, whereas it was clearly understood by EVERYBODY ELSE that the opposite was intended with President Bush's use of the vernacular. This same incompetence by the Korean translators was demonstrated during President Roh's visit to Washington in 2003 when President Bush commented that President Roh was an 'easy' person to deal with. The Korean translators interpretation was that the term 'easy' was to mean 'naively stupid'.

Yeah, ya just gotta love 'em.
