He looked reasonably cheerful in photos with U.S. officials after the deal was made. Then, just a few hours later, he told CNN, We are in danger. If you can talk to Hillary, I hope she can help my whole family leave China.
The most logical explanation for the sudden turnabout is that China reneged on its deal with the U.S. once they had Chen back in custody, but that would be a huge betrayal at a moment when Hillarys in the country for talks on a variety of issues.
I guess its possible that the State Department really did lie to him about the deal to get him out the front door of the embassy, on the theory that preserving good relations between the U.S. and China is more important than saving one dissident from Beijings police state. Thats hard to believe, though. If its true, it would destroy Os credibility as a bulwark against China among the Far Eastern nations hes been courting lately.
And if someone in the Department leaked to the media about it, itd be a huge domestic embarrassment for him and serious campaign artillery for Romney and the GOP. In fact, heres Boehners statement this afternoon hammering O even at a moment when events are in flux:
Like millions of other Americans, I have followed the story of Chen Guangcheng with admiration for his courage and concern for his safety and that of his family. I am deeply disturbed by the most recent report by the Associated Press, which suggests Chen Guangcheng was pressured to leave the U.S. embassy against his will amid flimsy promises and possible threats of harm to his family.
In such a situation, the United States has an obligation to stand with the oppressed, not with the oppressor.

Our muslim in chief, commie loving, pencil necked, illegal alien resident of our White House will undoubtedly hang this guy out to dry.
Why would anyone think the most pro-abortion president the US has ever known would help a pro-life activist?
This is so, so sad.
Dude. You dunn been rickshawed...
Join the club, Chen, we’ve got jackets.
Always go with your gut Chen.
To this poor blind Chinaman I say:
Welcome To Obama-Clinton World.
As Otter said in Animal House, “You F’d Up, You Trusted Us!”
"Lets face it, you F***** Up! You trusted us"
“Chen: I cant help feeling like the U.S. lied to me a little”
Frankly, I think that he has a lot of nerve complaining about this. We live here, pay taxes and so on, and it happens to us “a lot”.
As the bumper sticker says, “Think You Can Trust the US Government? Ask An Indian.”
“I guess its possible that the State Department really did lie to him about the deal to get him out the front door of the embassy, on the theory that preserving good relations between the U.S. and China is more important than saving one dissident from Beijings police state”
Ya think? Just maybe? Chen represents everything the “vanguard of professional revolutionaries” ruling America hates. It was easy for Barry and Hillary to sell him a bill of goods to get him back in the hands of China’s communists. “Birds of a feather flock together”

Welcome to the party, pal.
Sorry Chen, Hillary and Obama have China’s back. They are Marxists through and through. Hell, Obama has Mao Xmas Ornaments on his Xmas Tree in the WH.
Obama loves the doublecross
