Too bad they didn't think this way when the country was Iraq....or Iran, for that matter

Stephen Hadley, yesterday, on CNN:

It would be a "cop-out" for countries to skip the opening ceremonies at the Beijing Olympics as a way of protesting China's crackdown in Tibet, President Bush's national security adviser said Sunday.

The kind of "quiet diplomacy" that the U.S. is practicing is a better way to send a message to China's leaders rather than "frontal confrontation," Stephen Hadley said.


Especially when you're talking about the country that owns your sorry ass.
