Time to start apologizing to the North Koreans, President Obama.

Time to start apologizing to the North Koreans, President Obama.

If you ask what the Obama administration’s policy on North Korea is, you have to then ask another question: What day of the week is it? Because the policy seems to change daily.

Ping: Back in April, when Pyongyang tested its first long-range missile, the President deemed North Korea a “regional threat.”

Pong: After the North Koreans’ latest missile test last week, he called them a global threat.

Ping: National security adviser James Jones said last week that the rogue nation poses no imminent threat to the US.

Pong: Later in the week, Defense Secretary Robert Gates said, “The United States will not accept North Korea as a nuclear-armed state…North Korea’s nuclear program and actions constitute a threat to regional peace and security. We unequivocally reaffirm our commitment to the defense of our allies in the region.”

Ping: On Friday, Gates dialed back the rhetoric and said, “I don’t think that anybody in the [Obama] administration thinks there is a crisis.”

The Obama administration should take note that no one beats the Asians when it comes to ping pong.
