At the same time they pretend to be friendly with us. Hmmm.

Quitcher winin. Dubya knows best. As for those slave laborers, etc. whatchabitchinabout. Walmart has socks on sale today from China. No sense not sending cash to a country and not granting MFN status when those industrious guys and gals can make 6 pair of socks and sell them to me for 2 bucks. Makes 'em disposable. Jiang said it in a speech today. All China wants, and all the Chinese people want, is peace.

Peace in our time. Peace on our terms. Peace of your country. Peace means you sell us more technology, let us steal more of your secrets to take back Taiwan, then that other pesky Chinese nation Japan, then maybe San Francisco...lots of Chinese there.

If Clinton was bad because he sold out to the Chinese, and Bush is supposed to be good because he sold out to the Chinese...oh well, I'm sure one of the Bushleaguers will explain.

There is a big difference between Clinton and Bush! Clinton was actively aiding the Chinese by giving John Huang his job at the Department of Commerce. Also, Clinton allowed sensitive military technology transfers to China. At the same time, Clinton recieved political funding from the Chinese. Much more could be said about Clintons sell out of America.

Bush has done nothing like Clinton. He believes that economic cooperation will eventually bring China around. I believe this is a mistake in his foreign policy, but there is nothing unethical about it or even close to what Clinton did.

It is difficult to determine whether products are made in China or the U.S. of A. It's all part of the so called 'global capitalism' approach which is really international communism.

Well there is nothing noble or humanitarian about the Chinese. My friend has worked with these people and knows them very well. From their one-child policy to literally destroying a company, it's hard to say that these people create anything at all. Much of our military technology has been stolen and sent back to the PRC thanks to Clinton. Furthermore, they stick their communist flags on company bulletin boards (one person I know found one of these flags, took it and threw it in the bathroom urinal). Last but not least, they hire their own people in American firms. TRW is a perfect example of such a company going down the tubes.

Re: #36

This whole PNTR thing did not originate with Bush or Clinton. It goes way on back to the Kissinger era.

Basically what this whole thing is about is... Back in the 70's when trade started the US required annual reviews of China trade based on all kinds of stuff. They extended them a package, then told the Chinese 'we are going to review it every single year'.

With the thing now, the package has not changed. Not the one we gave them at least. The only thing we did is end those annual reviews. It did not change any of the framework at all as far as I know.

I think we did that because it is required for China's WTO entry. Why is WTO important? It is not that it will give China more access to the US, but it will give the US more access to China. Supposedly it will make trade more reciprocal. At least thats the theory.

I think we did that because it is required for China's WTO entry.

Actually, we made PNTR dependent on China joining the WTO, not the other way around. But you've got the essentials right. However, Bush is the one who made it permaaent, i.e., not subject to annual review.

In this respect, business dealings with, catering to, and the continued siphoning of our manufacturing and industrial base to the Red Chinese who represent the antithisis of what our nation is supposed to be ... it has been business as usual ... and it is an irresponsible and a danmgerous business:

I couldnt agree with you more and the fact is that its only going to get worse considering the fact that big business is the side seat driver in D.C. Politics.
