From some previous posts that I have seen over the last few days, it appears that there more here than meets the eye and that a possibility of a trade is being spoken about in closed sessions.

Colin Powell is the biggest disappointment of the Bush Adminsitration. It has been rumored that it was Powell -- and Mineta -- that he was referring to when he said he regretted some of his appointments.
Condi would be good.
Adios Colin.
it's the policy of the President, so how is Colin to be faulted for something that President Bush believes? For decades? I doubt it. How many years has this country been doing business with China despite their human rights abuses?
So did the South in the Civil War.

I'm sure they wouldn't care. It is not our job to bring freedom to anyone. When we've tried in the past, countries have either outright resisted us (veitnam) or have eventually turned on us (South Korea: 38,000 dead Americans to free them. Now they are violently anti-American).
Taiwan would just turn on us as South Korean and Europe have turned on us. Better not to give the Taiwanese the chance to do the same. I'm more concerned with the state of America than that of foreigners.
