Will Bush offer congratulations to Chinese?
Given his callous nature I doubt he will.

1. You know what's funny...
I was watching the early news..."world news now" I think but I'm not positive...and the commentator asked the reporter covering the launch..."Do we know if this represents a threat to the U.S...?"

:wtf:

The reporter was shocked and didn't know how to answer...

BushCo will probably send them a "form letter"...!

2. No...
And even though restrictions on those very type of technologies were in fact relaxed in the Reagan Admin they will blame China's techno boom on Clinton ~

Believe It!!

3. I also heard some space industry watcher
Say that the Chinese weren't out to impress the US they were more concerned with their neighbors.

I say...good for for them. We all know the dangers envolved and anytime a human being leaves earth and returns safely is a time for celebration.

4. No! Scott McClellan was rude to the Chinese reporter who
brought it up at a press briefing.
