Kim Jong-il thanks you.

Because of a weapons program that may not even have existed (and no one ever thought was far advanced) the White House got the North Koreans to restart their plutonium program and then sat by while they produced a half dozen or a dozen real nuclear weapons -- not the Doug Feith/John Bolton kind, but the real thing. It's a screw-up that staggers the mind.

Hilzoy has more...

And then we have the tiny bank in Macau.
