Kim Jong Il basks in international adulation...
2002-08-14
From August last year till today nearly 2,000 media of more than 180 countries have given wide publicity to the visit paid by General Secretary Kim Jong Il to the Russian Federation in the first year of the new century. Itar-Tass, Xinhua, Reuters, Kyodo, AP, AFP and other big news agencies of the world widely reported his Russian visit and televisions of at least 150 countries arranged special programs everyday at the times of highest audience rating. Leading newspapers of Laos, Iran, Tanzania, Egypt, Portugal, Germany, Peru and many other countries highlighted reports about his Russian visit and Russian media reported about it more than 1,200 times. Meanwhile, functions were held in at least 60 countries to congratulate him on his energetic external activities and his successful Russian visit. Their participants said that his Russian visit brought about a turning phase in the global cause of independence, adding that this success was ascribable to his high international prestige.
Yeah. Who has higher international prestige than Kim Jong Il?

I am funded federally;
I'm a taxpayer-subsidized purple dinosaur--
They sell my stuff in discount stores!"

Yes, I know the question was rhetorical, but I just couldn't help myself :-)
