Why are we as a country collectively kissing the President of China's @$$?

I don't support the Communist and their Dictator Hu. They have committed genocide on China's people for years. Look at their abortion laws and population control, that alone is genocide. It's the Republicans and their uncontrollable greed. Communist China is an atheist Country, and there are way to many things to list in here. It's a total travesty and embarrassment to the American People and our Democratic society. I want to know if this is what the Republicans have in mind for America to become a Communist Nation. I am not going for the Dictator thing now with George Bush.

Because two people loving each other is just OUTRAGEOUS! We all know that that's what this nation needs, more hate. *sarcasm*

Bush and his cronies are not very good at diplomacy or cooperation.  It's not surprising that the rest of the world would not be happy with a country that's taken such a "my way or the highway" stance.  After all, we haven't signed the Kyoto treaty, we won't talk to countries we don't like, we call the UN names and bully them while refusing to pay our dues (uh, that predates the Bush era, but still), we've got people who claim that the Geneva Conventions are "quaint", and we've decided that's it's perfectly okay to wage pre-emptive strikes on sovereign nations without UN approval, which is something that's been a huge no-no ever since WWII.  Frankly, we've not been good world citizens, largely because of the Bush administration.  I think the world hopes the Dems are like their colleague, Bill Clinton, who is, if nothing else, very good at making friends.

This guy's actually got a point. I'm not so sure on the specifics of any yahoo involvement, but I do know for certain that the Chinese government is very oppressive to anyone who questions its motives or policies. Instances may have tailed off over recent years, but beatings and torture are still a regular part of protocol there. America simply chooses to ignore it because we're more concerned with preserving our good economic relations with China, even though a lot of the cheap labor we outsource there is indeed done by slaves. We really should wake up and start seeing the truth.

They still seem to like one another at personal level.  But politically it is another story.  They like each other because they both are hawkish type of people.  Politically, they are very different people who protect interests of there respective countries as they see them.  Since  Russian and American interests differ in many ways and since these two countries want to impose their influence in the same parts of the world and there is only so much space, there interests frequently collide.  Consequently, there are some political confrontations between the two presidents.

Yikes! The U.S. (at least) recognizes Taiwan as a sovereign country and is a great supporter of its president. (Some mainland Chinese are sore losers.)\n\nPresident Chen Shui-bian\n\nVice President Lu Hsiu-lien\n\nHead of Government: Premier (President of the Executive Yuan) Frank Hsieh

People seem to be forgetting that U.A.E. is a very valuable ally.  George Bush probably knows much more than we realize.  If he does the U.A.E. this favor, the U.S. will almost definitely get a very valuable favor in return.  We are also forgetting that the current leader of U.A.E. is close to death (maybe he is even dead already, for as much as I know).  This man is a very good friend of the U.S., but there is no guarantee that his successor will be.  If we do the U.A.E. this favor, we increase the liklihood that they will remain our valuable ally.

Maybe it is a culturale thing.  Like how Chinese peaple like to spit on the floor.  Nobody seems to mind.

I see President Musharaff as a good guy.  I'm an old man and I think I can judge people pretty well.  But I must say that my assesssment took a hard knock - a very hard knock -when he appeared on Chinese TV, during his visit to Beijing, with ORANGE HAIR !!   Mr President, are you sure that you're not going mad ?\nDon't think I'm joking - I saw very clearly when my heroinne Maggie Thatcher went exactly the same way : it was during a visit to Tunbridge Wells, when she rambled on about rhe lovely old ex-army types there who backed her.  Next thing was the poll-tax (certain death!).  I was very much saddened, but could see the writing on the wall.\nDon't lose your grip Pervez !!

Hu nor China is Bush's friend.China is likely to make it difficult for the rest of the world to use peaceful sanctions against Iran by buying oil that no one else will.\nThere are also the many human rights violations.

i'll answer your question without going off on a tangent like some of the other morons who've already answered.  First, i wanna address that idiot "DarkStarInMyAsss":  You're right that your U.S. people have the rights to change/abolish your own government, and not the Yellows, but did you consider what YOUR U.S. People have been doing around the world? WHO made you guys THE BOSS of all other countries.  So basically, DarkStarInMyASSS, you're a frickin' HYPOCRITE who's literally confused in life.  Here's a dime, now go and contribute to help pay off your U.S.'s $6 Trillion debt to foreign countries (the majority of which idiots like you owe to China).\n\nNow, to answer the REAL question:  Would i mind if China invaded and occupy the U.S. ?  NO !!!  Maybe it's time for this country to have a taste of its own medicine, and see what it's like to be invaded by a foreign power.  But you know what?  If the invading country happens to be China, they're not going to do it through animalistic and barbarric brute force and strength like the so called "nice and benevolent" U.S. did to the Middle East (what a crock of BULL !!!), because China is a better country and people than the cocky U.S. people.  Instead, China will economically and peacefully buy up all the major businesses and corporations here, and will control everything financially, and I think that's the better way to do things rather than bombing people.  And the U.S. should get ready for a wake-up call too because it WILL happen pretty soon.  You can see it already:  Chinese, as a language, will be the global language in the upcomming century, and English will take second place.  There are just too many Chinese running the world right now.  Oh well, too bad.  Learn to live with it.

The U.S. (so the politicians believe) cannot afford NOT to be friendly to China - a huge emerging market, producers of low-cost consumer products, etc.  So even though the Chinese are just as anti-democratic as the Cubans, even though the Chinese undoubtedly have a more horrific human rights record than Castro's Cuba, even though they meddle and interfere with Bush's interests in Central Asia, we give them a pass because we need China as much as China needs us.\n\nCuba, on the other hand, has very little to offer economically.  So we can afford to play the bully, to assert our Monroe Doctrine dominance over the hemisphere and freeze out the Cubans in the hopes that Castro (or, more likely, the guy who comes after him) will fall from power and we can go back to making Cuba the pro-U.S. cheap-sugar-and-smokes satellite that it was for decades.

They only want it democratic which it will never be, so they can run the oil refineries cause they are afraid of China.\nPussy boys better lighten up and get a clue,  China is actually a pretty decent culture and they have respect unlike racist Americans.\nSo==you do know that usa is building a pipline so oil can be pumped from Afganistan and Iraq into Israel who is gonna share with their baby sister USA and momma Britian.\nSupposedly, but the kiss of betrayel is not a good one.

Becouse its a sign of affection and apreciation of each other.\nA friendly remark you might say. Its been going on for the last maybe 30 years. I think the tradition began in Mexico 1970's world cup.

I think our relationship with China is on even keel....but bordering on adversarial unfortunately.\n\nTheir military build up is on going and for what?  Who are they getting ready to fight?  Probably no one....but we are in debt to the Chinese in the billions of dollars.  Eventually we will have to concede that they are on our tier of dominance.\n\nI agree with a previous poster's analysis in that they will be the superpower on one....it may not be real soon, but it will be one day.\n\nThis is the thing.  Small thing.  All they have do is....drumroll please.........convert to some form of democracy.  That's all.  Nothing major.  They can do that in a few weeks.  \n\nSeriously.....Communism does not work.  And look at what America is trying to do.  Bush was over there wanting China is ease up on religious tolerance....along with a few other things.  But see....we don't really want them to have a democratic system....we want them to have widespread, capitalistic tendency.....democracy-styled freedoms.  There is a massive difference.\n\nWe don't want a mega copy of us.....we are Miller, or Budweiser.  We want them to be Zima.
