Question number two tonight 
in the president’s news conference was on the North Korea crisis. The answer was depressing. And the message was clear: we have no policy. The president wants help from the Chinese, South Koreans, Russians, Japanese, etc. etc. etc. Can anybody help? Does anyone have a policy we can borrow? Does anyone have another question? Next question.
Here’s the quote of the day from today’s Nelson Report …
It would be difficult to exaggerate the growing mixture of anger, despair, disgust, and fear actuating the foreign policy community in Washington as the attack on Iraq moves closer, and the North Korea crisis festers with no coherent U.S. policy. We get the phone calls and e-mails from all over this Administration, Capitol Hill, the think tanks, and even fellow scribblers. We’ve never seen anything like it, and we’ve been here since 1966.
This is a bad situation, getting worse. And the unavoidable truth is that we don’t have a policy and because of that we’re letting it hang.
