The North Korean Foreign Ministry lashed out at Hillary Clinton today, mocking her intelligence and appearance after the Secretary of State had expressed frustration with North Korean belligerence.
During a trip to Thailand, Clinton said North Korean leaders were acting like "small children and unruly teenagers and people who are demanding attention."
A North Korean spokesman responded with a fury, saying Clinton is "by no means intelligent" and is a "funny lady," according to CNN.

Clinton was in Phuket, Thailand for a meeting of southeast Asian states.
