He's still ronery.

Is there a point to this other than trying to discount a Clinton?

Clinton getting punked in North Korea would be nothing new for him.

TheRaven7: Is there a point to this other than trying to discount a Clinton?

Nope.

Spad31: Oh, how friggin' awesome would that be?

Not very?

Now let me ask you this:

Unless the two women are look-a-likes, I don't think he cares. He didn't go there to meet Kim.

Spad31: Emposter: Spad31: Oh, how friggin' awesome would that be?

Not very?

Why not? That's pretty damned funny for a lot of reasons!

Yeah...not really. At best it's slightly amusing, but really not surprising.

Come back when it's verified because one can pronounce his L's and the other can't.

Tor_Eckman: How do we know it was really Clinton that went over there?

That depends on your definition of the word "really."

Spad31: Emposter: Spad31: Oh, how friggin' awesome would that be?

Not very?

Why not? That's pretty damned funny for a lot of reasons!

I'm missing it, too. Where's the funny?

That's ok, that wasn't really Bill Clinton.


Actually it was George Clinton.

What was she doing in North Korea?

Fox's big story this week:

Those weren't the real hostages.

Spad31: The funny is in the fact that a supposed "scary" world leader would fark off and have a double meet with a former US President. That's pretty juvenile and comical.

I really don't think the NK'ers would do this to just have a laugh, though.

Punked? Hardly. Hell, unless Clinton was there to assassinate the little turd, I'd consider not having to meet or even see the real Kim Jong-il a huge plus for Clinton.

Sweet I can use these again. Last pic unrelated.

they all look alike to me.

In a way, the Norks punked themselves. They can put in a double and no one knows or cares enough about Kim to tell the difference.

Honest mistake. They all look alike.

FTA: "Some say..." that Glenn Beck [fill in the rest yourself].

mesohorny: they all look alike to me.

Scrolls...scrolls....scrolls..... aaaand there we are.

northgrave: Looks like the reul Kim Jong to me.

SO MUCH WIN.

FTFA - "The evidence of Kim stand-ins is far from verified"

So no evidence whatsoever just wild speculation and the article itself fully accepts that. Then even if the wild speculation did for some reason happen to turn out to be true, as pointed out earlier in the thread"

"TheRaven7: Is there a point to this other than trying to discount a Clinton?

So wild speculation about a non-story with no evidence to back it up whatsoever is journalism these days? Nice standards you have there ABC.

If it was a look-alike, it was probably necessary because Kim Jong is dead or dying.

Ooooooo, burn on Clinton!

Atillathepun If it was a look-alike, it was probably necessary because Kim Jong is dead or dying.

Yeah, that was how I took it also, if this were to be true. Not that they showed up Clinton, but they wanted Clinton to see a healthy looking Kim Jong. Which doesn't really make it a 'punked', more a dying regime desperately clinging to their self-contrived world standing.

From "a Japanese analyst claims" to "rumors now circulating" in 6 seconds.

From "Clinton is weakening America by meeting with Kim Jong Il! He's hurting America's reputation!" to "HaHa! Clinton got punked by a fake Kim Jong Il! That's f*cking GREAT! Yeahh! Rub that lotion on me fellas!" in a blink of an eye.

John Bolton has his troll face on.

Atillathepun: If it was a look-alike, it was probably necessary because Kim Jong is dead or dying.

Ooooooo, burn on Clinton!

Yep, considering the original complaint was that we "gave in to demands" by letting a high level international figure visit North Korea to improve their standing (IIRC, NK turned down the return of the prisoners when it was "only" Gore who was supposed to go), they have to have a damn good reason for a fake to meet with Clinton.

susansto-helit: Why would it matter as long as the two women were released?

Nope, but we can just pretend that Clinton wanted to visit and this was intended as a slight against Clinton, so it proves you should vote Republican.

Real, lookalike, who gives a shiat. He was over there to get the two journalists, he got the two journalists.

The sister of one of them is going to be in La Crosse on Tuesday; if I get a chance I'll ask her about it and see if she gives a damn.

cameroncrazy1984: With the size of Kim's ego, there's no way he doesn't meet Clinton.

I don't care who you are and what he sounds like now, if Bob Dylan mumbles he wants to sit in on your next set, you are a giddy school girl.

Well, if there's a rumor circulating, by all means ABC News should post it on its web site immediately. I mean, really, a rumor. It doesn't get much better than that.

Why would it matter? He still helped in the getting the reporters home and this would weaken whatever influence the North Koreans got from the photo op. . .so wouldn't this be a good thing?

Uh, who cares? Did they give him reporter look alikes? No? Well, the point was to get those reporters out, not meet Kim Jong Il. All this means is that Kim is way sicker than they are willing to admit.

For all the good it does to talk to that psycho, you could negotiate with a cardboard cutout, so BFD if Clinton didn't get the real deal.

Larry Mahnken: Now let me ask you this:

Unless the two women are look-a-likes, I don't think he cares. He didn't go there to meet Kim.

This.

Kim Jong's dong's Ill?

Oh well. Probably better off anyway

It just amazes me when people are so willing to accept a rumor like this.

What would NK have gained from Clinton talking to an impostor?

It seems a biatchildish to still be upset about Clinton success.

Though he did just have a 15' statue erected in his honor too.

Considering that Kim Jong Il is basically a figurehead/symbol who is above mortals, it does not really matter whether it was him, his double or an uncannily designed robot - they might as well use a red kite to symbolize Ultimate Power in North Korea and people would still be forced into worshipping that symbol.

Right, whatever, we heard the same shiat about Hussein and then it turned out he didn't have any stand-ins.

I think both GWB and BHO have stand-ins and the real ones are closeted away with the Illuminati, Trilateral Commission, Bilderberg Group and George Soros.

Dil Doe: Well, if there's a rumor circulating, by all means ABC News should post it on its web site immediately. I mean, really, a rumor. It doesn't get much better than that.

If ABC posts the rumor it on its website, by all means FARK mods should greenlight it with a trollerific headline so that we can all laugh at Bill Clinton. It doesn't get ANY better than that.
