Hypocrisy Watch, Part 6493: Dems timing very bad on Armenian vote, but...

[Atman]

...it was cool for Bush to get down with the Dalai Lama, despite the objections of the country who holds most of our paper?

Am I the only just a little bit baffled by this? I mean, I think the timing of the Armenian vote was ill advised, given the very-current ME situation with Turkey. But was Bush's visit with the Dalai Lama any better? Don't we have at least a wee bit of interest in making sure China doesn't cut us off like a drunken ex?

Oh, wait...I'm actually thinking that Republicans are capable of being honest and reasonable. Never mind.

1. Oh, that's right, he insulted China too. I listed sick kids, Putin, David Gregory earlier in a post.

That press conference was scarier than Saw. MKJ

2. He can't frame the Dems as easily.

Turkey is ready to move on Iraq now, so the Dems are in a position to take the blame.

3. China won't do anything

to wreck our economy because it would cripple their's too. They need us as bad as we need them.

4. They also have a weakened "opponent" in the US, thanks to zero diplomatic efforts for seven years

and so on and so forth. MKJ
