You know how North Korea — a member of the "Axis of Evil" — just set off its first nuclear weapon?
You know how Republicans are trying to blame Clinton for that, even though Clinton managed to keep North Korea from becoming a nuclear power during his presidency?
Well, funny thing ’bout that North Korean nuke.
The nuclear material used to make the bomb was made in nuclear reactors. Where did North Korea get those nuclear reactors?
Well, six years ago, a Zurich company named ABB sold designs and key components for those reactors to North Korea.
Guess who served on the board of directors of ABB, and was asked to lobby in Washington to allow North Korea to get those nuclear reactors?
Just sayin…
I’ll let The Talent Show pick up the thread:
Give it a second for those last few paragraphs to sink in. One of the biggest enemies of the United States just joined the nuclear club over the weekend and our secretary of defense was involved in selling them the technology to do it. I won’t even bother to speculate about the ulterior motives that have surely shaped our policies towards North Korean non-proliferation, but I’d love to know how much money Donald Rumsfeld has made helping Kim Jong-il make a nuclear bomb. Between Rummy and North Korea, the Bush family’s close ties to the Saudis, and our nuke-selling, Bin Laden-harboring "close allies" Pakistan, I can’t help but look forward to 2008 when our country has another chance to choose a leader who isn’t all chummy with the bad guys.
Rummy? Chummy with the bad guys?
Oh, right.
