    I'm sure the Chinese are crying in their beer that Americans won't be docking at their ports or searching for missing US servicemen on their territory. That's quite a blow we've dealt them.

    Why does this whole thing with China remind me of the Open Door Policy and gunship diplomacy of the beginning of the 20th century?

    JV I hate to be a conspiracy theorist, but that's all the info, we as citizens, have been privy too. I'm sure there are countless other things that we don't know about.

    What really bothers me about the article is this line...

    "There was no public announcement made of the
    change in policy and officials said the memo
    could not be released to the public."

    It just means that we will dispose of the Army berets we bought from them for $27m and buy them again from someone else (at a much higher price).

    I thought Cheney found the fact that China allowed us to inspect our plane an encouraging sign ? That headline was today.

    Did you see Dubyah's press conference?
