Now, this is just ignorant slander. "He can't or doesn't know how to negociate." He is suburb with congress, probably the best since LBJ.

Bush just strong arms congress. He is an excellent fund raiser and controls the Republican money.

Bush had an opportunity last week to negociate with President Hu regarding China's undervalued currency and our huge trade deficit with China. What happened????????

Well, let's see. You probably know that the negotiations precede the meetings. Hu came with an armload of gifts that will improve trade balance. He ordered 80 Boeing jets, caved on intellectual property and ordered $500 million Windows installed in every Chinese computer, and reopened Chinese market to American beef. I was impressed.
