The White House's acquiescence to a Chinese demand that Mr. Hu not be subjected to possibly embarrassing queries about political prisoners, religious freedom or censorship of the Internet symbolizes a major element of Mr. Bush's policy -- his willingness to relegate China's worsening performance on political freedom and human rights to a back burner.

The WaPo clowns ran this jab in the morning addition before the South Lawn incident. After what's transpired, one of three things will likely be discussed in the MSM tonight and over the next couple of days......

1) The talking heads will complain the Bush administration could not keep control over the event and embarrassed an "important world leader."

2) They'll complain it took a Chinese dissident to discuss what they were unwilling or unable to do.

3) The said dissident was a plant, designed to get out the message, while providing cover for the administration (a Rovian plot).

Any way you look at it.......IT'S BUSH'S FAULT!

Well, it is Bush's fault for not confronting these things head-on.

I'm usually a big Bush defenderr around here, but why is he unafraid to take on the rest of the world when it comes to terror but he's afraid to tell this SOB "This is MY country, you don't get to dictate terms, and we'll talk about anything we damn-well please"?

Sorry, I have to side with the Post this time. Because they're right.

So what is your take? Is the truth one of those three, or something else?
