Hillary Clinton has kicked off her trip to Asia (and her first trip as Secretary of State) after arriving in Japan Monday. When she landed in Tokyo, Hillary wasted no time in emphasizing the importance of the US-Japanese alliance.
One Asian country not on the itinerary — North Korea — will surely be discussed during her trip. This week the isolated country hinted at its intention to launch a ballistic missile capable of hitting the US. Clinton commented on the development yesterday, saying the US expects North Korea to dismantle its weapons as it's agreed to but that the country also has a right to peaceful space development.
Clinton will also be making a stop in China. Before leaving for Asia, she asserted that the US would "not be shying away" from human rights issues, but noted that it would be one topic on a very broad agenda.
It sounds like Hillary Clinton has a lot of work ahead of her.

Hillary how about you telling the N. Koreans to feed their people before they develop peaceful space exploration......

2Today's topic: cheerleading.
3Tomorrow's topic: nuclear disarmament.
I was not crazy about Hillary as SoS, but I think she's doing a good job so far. I like the stance she's taking and the rhetoric she's using.
4I will hold my opnion of her as SoS until after I see what she does with N. Korea and China. I'm rooting for her to impress me.
5That is a scary picture of her.
6Ohayo gozaimasu Clinton-san.
7The Obama administration is learning that words have consequences. No more "Monday Morning" quarterbacking, no more voting present, no more talk about “principled stand”
