Stephen Hayes talks to McCain about Bush taking North Korea off the list of terrorist states:
"I don’t agree with it, and I think we have basically contradicted Ronald Reagan’s great dictum of trust but verify. And particularly–many aspects of this are disturbing–but we told the South Koreans and the Japanese after we had made the decision. That’s not a partnership with the allies."[…]
"It’s a decision that I hope we don’t regret over time because the North Koreans have a long pattern of breaking–a long history of breaking agreements that are not verifiable. I was very critical of the Clinton agreement–the Agreed Framework as I recall–because I didn’t think that one was verifiable and I don’t think this one is verifiable."
