On 12/10, The Guardian reports:
President George Bush said yesterday after meeting the Chinese prime minister, Wen Jiabao, that he opposes the apparent interest of Taiwan's leaders in taking steps towards independence.
He said he had told Mr Wen: "The United States policy is one China. We oppose any unilateral decision by either China or Taiwan to change the status quo. -------------------------------
Apparently, its quite fine for Bush to unilaterally overthrow one county to impose his version of Democracy, but it is not acceptable for another country to seek Democracy of its own free will?
But then, here in the states, we're not surprised by Bush's opposition to Democratic principles....
