Bush said he will call for the lifting of sanctions against North Korea under the Trading with Enemy Act and notify Congress that he intends to take it off the terror list, a move that will take 45 days.

"The next 45 days will be an important period for North Korea, to show its ... cooperation," he said. But, North Korea will have to end its nuclear activities in a "verifiable" way, he added.

Exactly. Jimmy Carter once again demonstrates that narcissism and dementia don't mix.

And maybe these goobers are trying to honor the wrong President.
