BREAKING NEWS: Bill Clinton gets Kim Jong Il to pardon Euna Lee and Laura Ling!!! The ex-president has already departed North Korea, and Euna Lee and Laura Ling are on board heading for Los Angeles to be united with their families. Yo Bill Clinton…. much respect! You d’man!

Ex-President Bill Clinton has landed in North Korea. The breaking news today is that ex-President Bill Clinton is in North Korea to help win the release of Euna Lee and Laura Ling, the two American journalists who have been in captivity there since March. This marks the first time a U.S. President has stepped foot in North Korea since Jimmy Carter in 1994.
It is believed that Kim Jong-Il may be using them as bargaining chips against the U.S. amid heightened tensions between North Korea and the world. North Korea has recently conducted both nuclear and missile tests which has alarmed the entire world. The U.N. Security Council condemned North Korea’s most recent actions and had passed a resolution to further expand an arms embargo.
Euna Lee and Laura Ling were captured along the North Korean and Chinese border back in March and were held on trial in Pyongyang for illegally entering North Korea. They were tried and sentenced to 12 years of hard labor for “committing hostilities against the Korean nation and illegal entry.” Secretary of State Hillary Clinton tried to pursuade North Korea into releasing the two journalists by seeking amnesty for them but that was unsuccessful. Previous to that, the families of Euna Lee and Laura Ling pleaded with North Korea to graciously release Euna and Laura, but that fell on deaf ears. Hopefully ex-President Bill Clinton can finally convince Kim Jong-Il to be rationale and release the two American journalists and reunite them with their families. Euna Lee, the Korean-American, has a young daughter and husband.

Politics and diplomacy is not going to work with DPRK. They went too far down the road and pass the point of no return. They are mad men and rational reasoning will not buy anything. What they want is money. Money to stay alive and continue to do what they’ve been doing; making and selling bombs and kidnapping more innocent people. I won’t be disappointed if Bill come back with empty hands.

Bill Clinton Takes Private Jet Abroad To Pick Up Two Women…
In ordinary times this would be just another ordinary Headline for a typical 90’s news story. Nothing to see here people. Go home, nothing to see here! But these are not ordinary times and North Korea isn’t an ordinary threat. It’s been reported that this was a “surprise” trip. We all know this is BS. I can’t see Kim Joog Il coming out of the bathroom one morning and saying “Bill, is that you”? “I’m so surprised”!”Ah, if I’d known you were coming I’d have baked a cake”. One doesn’t travel to N. Korea in surprise fashion lest ye be shot down. So clearly the statement is false and preparations were made. Plans were in the works long enough to write Al Gore out of the script. After all, it’s Al’s network where the young ladies worked. Why didn’t he go? So bill goes to N. Korea, we get what we wanted, freedom for the two journalist, nothing more to report… except…What did Kim Jong Il get?
