"My fellow Americans, China has joined Iran and North Korea as part of
the axis of evil. They are an aggressor nation in the process of
intimidating its more free and democratic neighbor, Taiwan. I feel it
is our duty to protect this small nation from being engulfed by a
fascist beauracracy which desperately needs a vassal of free wealth."
-Bush the straight shootin' Texsun

I don't think this will mean much. Its probably another thing to rouse
Chinese out of the apathy they have against the system.

Well *invade* of course! Isn't that his master plan to spread **US
BRAND** Democracy (TM) across the world?

There seem to be increasing rumors that George Bush has signed on
to reprise the role of Two-Face in the new Batman movie after his
amazing about-turn relating to two democracy issues reported on the
same day!

http://www.cnn.com/2005/ALLPOLITICS/03/08/bush.mideast/index.html
On March 8th, CNN reported that Bush trumpeted: "The trumpet of
freedom has been sounded, and that trumpet never calls defeat." He
also said, "We are confident that the desire for freedom, even when
repressed for generations, is present in every human heart, and
that desire can emerge with sudden power to change the course of
history."

But then China passed a law authorizing itself to use military
force to prevent Taiwan from formally declaring its independence
and Bush tucked his tail between his legs and looked the other way!
He didn't even have the guts to say the words himself, so some
lackey had to mumble "we would consider passage of this law
unhelpful."

Is this the same engorged mush who told us that he would stand by
any nation who wanted to stand up for democracy?

I guess we know what he's made of now. He can enforce "democracy"
in Iraq, because they can't fight him, but he's scared of China, so
they can pretty much do whatever they like. It turns out our
president is just a school bully, not even fit for a role as a
villain in a Batman movie. No surprises there.

this "law" in China?

Oh, a repetition of the bromide about the undefeatable trumpet
call of freedom might have comprised a minimum gesture.
