This is not a "sell-out" by Bush! Nixon. One China. Ford. One China. Carter. One Chine. Reagan. One China. Bush. One China. Bubba. One China. Bush. One China. Do you dim wits see a pattern here? What Bush did do as one of his first International pronouncements is that he would defend Taiwan. He later "clarified" it to be more diplomatic, but the message was clear to China. What other evidence do you people have that he has "sold-out"? Where did he say he would not defend Taiwan from China?

And since BillCompton didn't bother to read my post the first time around, Blackbird said:I don't really have a dog in this fight, meaning I really haven't an informed opinion on the one China policy, but I would be willing to wager that if China wanted Taiwan, they could have it intact within 72-96 hours.Too much time has passed, and China has made sure enough of "it's kind" have infiltrated, and Taiwan will fall from within. JMO...Blackbird.

Bill, I clearly stated I have an un-informed opinion. No dog in this fight. I didn't challenge W's policy, nor do I refer to anyone as "dimwit". I simply state that if China decides it want's Taiwan, Taiwan will crumble from within, and guess what dimwit, there isn't a damn thing you or W can do to stop it. Does this not match a "One China Policy"? It'll be over before CNN can setup a camera crew. Direct your diatribe somewhere else. Blackbird.
