CK,

12 weeks into his presidency, Bush has provided us with doubletalk on a remarkable range of issues.

1. The economy is sinking.
2. The economy is looking up.

3. Against arsenic reductions.
4. For stricter arsenic regulations.

5. Won't apologize.
6. Apologize.

7. Defend Taiwan.
8. Don't defend Taiwan.

The "man" is a moron.

Bush's Remarks on Taiwan Cause Stir

By PAULINE JELINEK, Associated Press Writer

WASHINGTON (AP) - President Bush (news - web sites) has changed nothing in U.S. China policy, the White House and State Department are insisting. But on Capitol Hill, nobody seems quite sure exactly what he did.

Some lawmakers said his remarks that the United States can use military force in Taiwan's defense negated traditional ambiguity in U.S. policy while acknowledging that there is but one China.

Others said even if that's what he did, the time for ambiguity is over.

``Ambiguity never was any good,'' Rep. Dana Rohrabacher (news - bio - voting record), R-Calif., a longtime foe of China's communist-led government, said Wednesday. In all of this, the White House and the State Department asserted Bush's comments represented no change in policy toward China and Taiwan, the island in the Taiwan Strait that Beijing considers a renegade province.
