And this makes Condoleezza Rice what, exactly? A woman who helped a Chinese guy document their missile systems for us? Oh yeah, she started looking into some professor's get-rich-quick scheme involving the sale of some fiber optic stuff to the Chinese Army. But then -- organ music, please -- she stopped the inquiry and now won't say anything about it. Plus it turns out the professor was also working for DOD at the time, as a consultant to the SecDef! This proves it! Except I don't know what it proves. Maybe it proves that the DOD would just as soon know what kinds of toys the Chinese are buying, and where they are getting shipped. It's not like the Chinese couldn't buy fiber optic stuff from Japan or Germany or Russia. Maybe it also proves that somebody from DOD paid a visit to Ms. Rice and, concerning her "investigation," told her to fuggedaboudit. |
I don't get it. Some guy came over here from China, went to Stanford where he documented Chinese missile systems for our government, went back to China, and was subsequently arrested by the Chinese for passing their state secrets to the U.S.
