What John Bolton knew
Power Line —
... encouragement:
Despite Pyongyang's aggression, Mr. Bosworth has reiterated that the U.S. is "committed to dialogue" and is "obviously interested in returning to a negotiating table as soon as we can." This is precisely what the North wants: America in a conciliatory mode, eager to bargain, just as Mr. Bush was after the 2006 test.
I think it's safe to say they're smiling in Tehran (or should I say "the Islamic Republic of Iran"?) too.

Good Christ, the idiocy is flowing like wine this morning from the right. It's hardly surprising that right-wing bloggers can't tell the difference between the argument that a) North Korea won't test another nuke, and b) a North Korean nuclear test doesn't matter; they are, by and large, morons.
