I would have liked to have read the article (unfortunately I clicked on the link too late) to see what supporting evidence the WTimes cited to indicate that former congressman/ambassador Funderburk was deserving of this wonderful honor. The fact that during his time as ambassador, he was aware that Ceausescu was an authoritarian tyrant, indicates that the man was breathing.....not a particularly original or seminal thought at the time :-) ESG (extremely silly grin)

Closer to the thread topic, also from the Wash Times:

China 'not a threat'

Former President George Bush says China poses no threat to the United States if relations between the two are handled well.
Asked on "Fox News Sunday" if China is a threat, Mr. Bush -- who served as ambassador to China in the 1970s -- replied with a firm "no."
"It's a threat if we mishandle the relationship, but it's not a threat," Mr. Bush said.
"China is not seeking hegemony. I see no evidence, and I'd like one person who's a critic of China on the Republican right or the Democratic left to tell me why they think they're seeking hegemony," he added
