The Chinese may brush W's behavior aside for the moment. This morning's NYTimes mentioned the lecture but the author suggested the rest of Bush's speech was so sugar coated that the Chinese could let it pass.
Still, when you are a guest in someone's country, you don't lecture, criticize or embarrass your host in public.
The Chinese may put aside the differences for the sake of future business deals. People have speculated that W didn't put the Chinese on his evil-doers list because he wants to drum up business in China for his rich friends. American jobs will find their way into China where the labor is cheap. For instance, Boeing may move jobs to China where they pay workers twenty or fifty cents an hour. Here, they pay them over $20.00.
So, W sends American jobs abroad and bankrupts our future by cutting taxes for the wealthy and spending our social security surplus on weapons. Unfortunately, we will need that social security money in a decade.
If W is re-elected our economy may become a former shell of itself.
Then, there is problem that W insists upon spending his time in office as W the Warrior. Since his posture his aggressive, you never know how other countries will react, do you?
On a lighter note, how was your trip to Nevada? |
