This has been going on for five years. Clinton's policies on transfers of military technology to China have remained in place - and even been loosened. Two years ago, this administration allowed the plant that manufactures smart-bombs to be transferred to China. The scum corporate owners made the usual empty promises not to allow the technology to fall into Chinese hand. Just like Bernie Schwartz and Loral did, once again proving Marx's sole truthful comment: There are plenty of businessmen who will sell you the rope today that will be used to hang them tomorrow. Useful idiots.
Heaven knows what else has been sold off. Once upon a time, this kind of activity was known as treason. The Republicans have to be in on the scam. That's why they let Clinton skate when they should have impeached him and tried him on charges of treason - a charge that's just a tad more serious than perjuring yourself about having interns give you blow jobs. More "compassionate conservatism" in action - compassionate to the bank accounts of treasonous corporate crooks, thugocracies, and third-world kleptocrats worldwide, with money freshly picked from taxpayer pockets. It's really horrible, and I'm sure we don't even know the half of it.
I don't have the answers to why Bush has continued following any of the clinton policies, but I do notice that when Bush speaks in public the last few days, it is a rough speech, as tho he does not want to be there, talking about whatever he is.......but has many more important things on his mind.
It has crossed my thoughts that Bush is being blackmailed by our enemies, to do certain things or they will attack.
Maybe far out thinking on my part, but still worth keeping an eye on.
