Jumping off the Peninsula

Jack Pritchard says bargaining with North Koreans takes just a little longer. He should know. As the top U.S. expert on North Korea Pritchard spent more than a decade pushing and prodding Pyongyang to dismantle its nuclear program. But Pritchard's bosses don't favor "go-slow" style of diplomacy.
The President decided that North Korea should be one of the nations on his now infamous Axis of Evil. Others in the Administration have called life in that country a "hellish nightmare." Some of the hardliners go so far as to say there should be no talks, no contact. So just before the last round of talks with the North Koreans, Jack Pritchard quit. Today, he talks about what works and what doesn't in dealing with North Korea.
