....and what about Bush and his approval of launches from China? What was he influenced by? Free Peking Duck? What secret components are onboard an Intelsat satellite? Intelsat is owned by a 142 country consortium---Comsat is the US signatory, and they do nothing without Congressional approval. So are you saying that US military technology was onboard this satellite? If so, it was approved by congress and shared with 141 other nations. This whole sham is preposterous--I am sick over hearing such filth out of people.

Dave,
I had read that the policy of granting waivers to American companies to allow them to launch on Chinese rockets began under President Bush. Did Bernie contribute to Bush also?

Isn't it a little early to conclude that the Chinese have gotten their hands on the encryption codes or anything else for that matter. So far these are unsubstantiated allegations. Don't misunderstand me. I don't claim to have any idea of what really happened. Most of us only have what we read/hear in the press to go on. It's funny how everyones political prejudices have so much impact on how they "see" these types of things, be they lib or conserv... Dave
