CRAWFORD, Texas - President George W. Bush on Thursday granted permanent normal trade status to China, calling it "a final step in normalising US-China trade relations".

Bush also terminated the 1974 Jackson-Vanik law that bars normal trade relations with communist states that restrict emigration.

More recently, Jackson-Vanik has been at the centre of annual debates over the human rights records of China and Vietnam, with lawmakers challenging presidential waivers of the law made to promote trade.

Beauty ... this is the far more interesting bit.

Comes just in time for the big roll back to the US ... back to the US ... back to the USSR of the old Eastern Bloc.

Boy, things are shaping up nicely noose-wise.
