I figure the wealthy, educated and numerous liberty-loving faithful Americans of Chinese heritage need to donate their politics dollars to other than the Bush interests.
Since Bush calculates to have the imigrant vote he doesn't need to love liberty for the free Chinese..Not the first time this has happened to the Chinese. Not the first time for the Bush family, either.
Makes one wonder how many "interests" the Bush clan still has in China.

Every American has some financial interest in China, not just the "Bush clan." Most Americans own index funds, and every index fund has companies whose future growth is dependent on China. America's markets are saturated so China is the next place to boost revenues. Intel just announced that China has become its #2 source of revenue worldwide. In addition, every American benefits from low-cost Chinese-made goods. The ability to buy these cheap goods makes American consumers' dollars go farther, helps keep US inflation low, and helps keep America's standard of living the highest in the world. China's presence on the economic global scene over the next several decades is the biggest "tax cut" imaginable for America's consumers. China plays the low-cost provider role today that Japan, Korea, Singapore, etc. used to play but can no longer play due to their wages having risen to First World levels over the past several decades.
