 Although you found a single document from a "nuclear consultant" who was in Rome in 2000 who thinks so, I'm not sure that the only alternative to "putting the deal in the wastebasket" as of 2000 was to give North Korea "even more technology" that they could use to build a bomb.  I'm not saying I know otherwise -- I'm just saying I don't know.
Be that as it may, your post 's not responsive to my question.  I understand that you conservatives like to trash Carter, but Reagan was the demented ex-President, not Carter.  Nothing in the piece Spanky quoted suggested to me that he blames Bush for North Korea, whatever that means.
