``The Bush administration continues to coddle China, despite its continuing crackdown on democratic reform, its brutal subjugation of Tibet, its irresponsible export of nuclear and missile technology...

It makes no sense to play the China card now when our opponents have thrown in their hand.''
-- Then Gov. Bill Clinton, Georgetown University, December 12, 1991.
