I was watching Charlie Rose last week, I do that sometimes. It's like a former musician who doesn't play anymore; in that every so often, they'll see whats going on ...
On The Radio.Anyway, Nic* Burns(w/ no K..*raises eyebrows) from Harvard, Elizabeth Economy, real name, Council of Foreign Affairs, Jim Fallows from the Atlantic, all weighing in on Osama and his trippin off to Chiner.
Bottom line is that This admin is gonna have to wait for Chiner; they're too comfy being at the top of the heap. Oh sure Osama will get some of what he wants,(bs session) but having an ally like C the way we (US) want to USE an ally, aint gonna happen any time soon.
However the importance to get Right w/ Chiner, they say, was significant. But the part where they(china) get tuff w/ Iran just isn't there. They want to wait three or four years till Okmadeanajad (sic) retires...or...Oh,
...and they think they're doing enough w/ climate change.
So what did Baraq get?
