Bill Clinton flew to North Korea, or as it is officially known, “Democratic Peoples Republic of Korea” (that name still cracks me up) and less than 24 hours later, he lifted off to return back to the U.S. with recently imprisoned journalists Euna Lee and Laura Ling in tow.
The charm, persuasion, and charisma of Clinton was too much for the Crazy Motherfucker-in-Chief of North Korea, Kim Jong Mentally-Il to resist.After spending time with Clinton, Krazy Kim pardoned the journalists who had been sentenced to twelve years hard labor for illegally entering the paradise that is North Korea.
Hell, I guess the two had a great meeting and good times discussing things other than the fate of the two journalists.
Kim even held a State Dinner for former Prez Clinton.
I don’t know how Clinton felt about that, because it’s kind of hard to get excited about a meal consisting of fettered water, tainted rice and dirt sandwiches. But, it’s the thought that counts.
Anyhoo…Clinton pulled off the release and I say to him…
“Way to go my man. Your years of having Al Gore by your side have given you unparalleled skills in dealing with crazy people.”
Oh how we need to send Clinton elsewhere in this world full of people whose cranial glue has melted.
I truly think his actions and successful negotiations are strokes of beauty. I hope other people recognize that as well. I seriously doubt that anyone else could have pulled this off. Kudos, Mr. Clinton.
It reminds me of the time fifteen years ago when former President Carter visited North Korea. He was smoothing things over on behalf of our two nations…and that worked pretty well too.
Eight years after Carter’s peace and humanity talks with the North Koreans, he won the Nobel Peace Prize and the Koreans had a nuclear weapons program. Talk about your win-win situation!!
I can’t see where this effort by Clinton will win him the Nobel Peace Prize, but I wouldn’t feel too badly for Clinton. Being a man who has no ego, Clinton is not into awards, praise, or acknowledgement.
No sirree; he is into one thing, and one thing only…Anyhoo…Clinton pulled off the release and I say to him…

Is it personal success? Is it his sense of duty to his fellow man? Is it simply his adherence to the Golden Rule? No…
Bill Clinton is really into chicks of Asian descent. And trust me, while he won’t get a major award for his actions, all the way home, he was eatin’ at Euna and Laura's Sushi Bar.
I hope the three of you had an incredibly hot, steamy, and bumpy flight home together.
Congrats to Bill Clinton and a warm welcome home to Euna Lee and Laura Ling.
Cheers!!
