One of the very few Congressmen that currently understands what is going on in Korea, Congressman Henry Hyde is bringing the big time smackdown to Seoul and Joshua at the Korea Liberator has the scoop on what Congressman Hyde is going to tell President Roh. Here is what he is going to tell President Roh about a topic I have been covering extensively:

You want operational control of all forces during wartime. How is that going to work? Will there be a U.S. general and a Korean general commanding the entire force jointly or two forces separately? Either way, aren't those both recipes for chaos, given that the two generals might not necessarily share the same immediate goals? [Yonhap reports that Hyde has said (Yonhap's words), "South Korea is now ready to reclaim its wartime operational control from Washington."]

Here is the parting shot he is taking at Roh:

We're going to watch "Yoduk Story" when it comes to Washington in September. Have you seen it?

God, I hope there is video of this because this is going to be one brilliant conversation.


On one good note for Roh, Congressmen Hyde said he would help out with the visa waiver issue.
