OMG here is a blatant Bush lie

Bush canceled a visit with Chinese President Hu Jintao that had been scheduled for Wednesday and made plans to return to the Gulf Coast on Monday. Defense Secretary Donald H. Rumsfeld and Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice scheduled visits to the region, as troops continue to pour in.

I read in the foreign press today (am trying to find the link)
that the Chinese President cancelled HIS visit because of the way Bush handled Katrina.

Has anyone else seen that?

The Chinese government says President Hu Jintao has postponed his trip to the United States due to Hurricane Katrina.

9. The truth is irrelevant to them. Sometimes useful, always irrelevant.

These are very bad people. I am so sorry to say. And I have no pity for the dupes that support them.

My heart is numb.

7. That doesn't mean it was because of Bush's actions. The thing
I read today was that they had talked and agreed due to Katrina he should not come.

The link you give does not go into detail.

See if their lips are moving.

He cancelled his trip because a major hurricane hit the US and now isn't a good time, they never said it had to do with Bush's handling of the situtation.

8. Still, The Wash. Post is making it sound like Bush canceled.
Probably to give the illusion that he's hard at work :eyes:
