Roh, Rice discuss nuclear issue

[Blackaxe]

On her one-day visit to Seoul yesterday, U.S. National Security Adviser Condoleezza Rice met with President Roh Moo-hyun and Foreign Minister Ban Ki-moon to discuss the North Korean nuclear issue, the realignment of U.S. forces in South Korea and other pending bilateral issues.

Ms. Rice said it was time for North Korea to completely dismantle its nuclear programs, adding the North "will be surprised to see how much will be possible" if it does so. "I wish Kim Jong-il would talk to Qaddafi," she said, referring to the Libyan leader's decision to voluntarily give up his nuclear program.

She delivered a letter from U.S. President George W. Bush to Mr. Roh, saying it contained Mr. Bush's thoughts on the U.S.-Korea alliance.

Blue House officials said the focus of the discussions between Mr. Roh and Ms. Rice was on strongly maintaining the U.S.-South Korea alliance. Ms. Rice reiterated Mr. Bush's reassurances that Washington will continue diplomatic efforts to resolve the North Korean nuclear issue peacefully through the talks among the two Koreas, the United States, China, Russia and Japan.

2. So now she is the postal employee that delivers letters

to other leaders in the world, by the request of her husband. Errr I mean her boss and her president , of course;.

Condi Rice has become irrelevant and at long last has slipped into the reality that she was, after all, only a token black woman who survived by capitalizing on her color in order to become a token after all

. It is obvious to me.


She is just riding out the storm, no one pays the slightest bit of attention to her and she and will retire into some lucrative paying job, as long as she continues to lap at her husband's feet--err I mean George Bush's feet.


So has Powell, although he keeps lying and trying to maintain that superb black man made good image as the quintessential, sober, analyst of world affairs that has mystified him into a legend that is unassailable as a great black man who has "made it" in spite of his color. All he has made is another token black man. I think though that he is content to retire with all that money and all that promise after he leaves. He apparently has NO political convictions other than his own survival.

All he had to do was to dance for his massa in order to achieve that.
