Bush league diplomacy 

Mike Allen and Glenn Kessler of WaPo here:

BANGKOK -- President Bush said yesterday that he is willing to commit to a written guarantee not to attack North Korea in exchange for steps by the country toward abandoning its nuclear weapons programs.

"We will not have a treaty," Bush said during a photo session with Thailand's prime minister, Thaksin Shinawatra. "That's off the table."

Hmm.... "written guarantee" but "no treaty"... Maybe Bush thinks he couldn't get a treaty through the Senate? Who knows?

Meanwhile, why on earth would anyone believe Bush about anything? First thing the administration does when it gets into office is tear up every treaty they can think of. Then they lie their way into a war. Actions have reactions...
