17. IMO, every on-air Democrat needs THIS ammo from Kerry, giving
the before (1-2 bombs worth), during (24-hour VIDEO SURVEILLANCE of unprocessed plutonium), and after (1-2 bombs worth) of Clinton's control over NK nuclear proliferation:

From http://blog.thedemocraticdaily.com/?p=4469 :

"KERRY: Let me go back in time. Bill Clinton was in office for eight years. When he started out in office, there was enough fuel for bombs for about one to two bombs. They were members â " North Korea was a member of the non-proliferation treaty and North Korea had not tested.

At the end of Bill Clinton¡s term, they had enough fuel for one to two bombs, they were members of the non-proliferation treaty, and they had not tested.

Now they have enough fuel for nine to 10 bombs. They say they¡re going to build â " get enough for five to six more. They¡ve pulled out of the non-proliferation treaty. We no longer have cameras in the reactor. We no longer have inspectors in the reactor. We no longer know where the fuel rods are. We know that they have now tested.

The United States of America is less safe, and the six-party talks have been a cover to get away from the idea, because George Bush and Dick Cheney decided ideologically in 2002 they would break off the oil trade, they would not build the nuclear reactors, they would not keep the framework that had been agreed on, and from that moment on, it¡s been downhill with North Korea.
