China must know that this...administration is good at controlling crowds
Edited on Thu Apr-20-06 03:55 PM by wndycty
This is a very interesting line:

-snip-
"It's hugely embarrassing," said Derek Mitchell, a former Asia adviser at the Pentagon and now an analyst at the Center for Strategic and International Studies.

China "must know that this Bush administration is good at controlling crowds for themselves, and the fact that they couldn't control this is going to play to their worst fears and suspicions about the United States, into mistrust about American intentions toward China."

2. Embarrassing? That's silly. Hu should know this is a democracy
Democracy is messy! Get over it. You want to sell your goods here, you have to deal with the people who are buying them.

If * got to hear what the public thinks more often he might actually get something right now and again. At least if we could get him to stop paying dress-up and mangling the language it would be a start.
