[Mount Athos]

You know part of the uncomfortable job of Secretary of State is putting forward the policy positions the USA has had for years and years. That would include Powell's statement on Taiwan. This was not him putting forward his own opinion, that was him putting forward the consistent policy of the United States. Can you criticise the policy without demonizing the spokesman?

You are simply wrong. That has never been policy, expressed or inexpressed.

We went over this before on earlier threads when Powell made the comments.
