North Korea

As you probably know, Gov. Richardson has been off in North Korea - living up to his image as a diplomat and internationalist. I thought I would post this little blurb about the trip, from the MSNBC First Read political blog:

RICHARDSON: New Mexico Gov. Bill Richardson is in North Korea today and tomorrow, along with NBC’s own Andrea Mitchell. "Richardson said the timing of his visit is important and will show North Korea the United States' good intentions. He said the North Koreans will understand the symbolism of a delegation that includes Anthony Principi, Bush's former veteran affairs secretary, and Victor Cha, a top adviser on North Korea. His group is expected to oversee the transfer of remains from the North Korean army to U.N. personnel. On the plane trip over, Richardson's delegation watched the 2006 movie Behind Enemy Lines II, Axis of Evil. It is a story of a group of U.S. Navy Seals who have to fight their way out of North Korea after being sent there to destroy a missile site."
