Agreement on US beef imports to South Korea
Well Washington took its time to agree to South Korea's demands for modification of the thoughtless agreement South Korea's president Lee Myung-bak signed. The delay has infused a determined campaign by South Koreans calling for Lee's resignation. As we know, he's holed up in the Blue House, isolated from his people by a wall of cargo containers. Although he's reshuffled his cabinet, twice apologised to his people, he hasn't got the message. Bulldozer Lee, what an affectionate adjective?!, has little time left in office. Bubble head pundits and reporters in the US and the UK have largely ignored the protests and how weak Lee is. They will no doubt pat him on the back and of course Herr Bush for saving a man who threw himself at Herr Bush's feet to draw closer to the American president. Little good that's done Lee, as events have shown. Herr Bush's attitude towards South and North Koreas bear the stamp of ineptitude; Herr Bush prefers blindly going for the jugular vein rather than thoughtful diplomacy. And as a result, he has proved once again what a klutz he is and unworthy to his two terms as president of the US. More than tricky Dick Nixon, he has turned the US into a helpless giant, and as a weak man, wanting to prove he's couillons between his legs, he has undermined a willing ally in the Blue House in Seoul, our wet behind the ears, failed businessman Lee Myung-bak.
