Did you hear any of Bush's speeches and comments today? Some of them were almost like Reagan ... almost. Some Europeans "get it" when it comes to the threat from Iran, communism. I'm proud of them.

One quote that I found interesting from President Bush concerning China was this one: "China's leaders believe that they can continue to open the nation's economy without also opening its political system. We disagree." So put it into policy. Disagreeing with words and agreeing with actions will reap the reward the actions, not the words, demand. Clinton talked even tougher, and as we know, Beijing all but owned that administration.

Our fair president seems almost as unwell as Jimmy Carter where it concerns understanding the things which make the Communist state more complex than the garden-variety tyranny or two-bit dictatorship. I suppose that isn't too different from the elder Bush however, although at least he to some small degree seemed to benefit from his close proximity to President Reagan. ;)
