I have to say I strongly support the NeoCons on this one. Bush's comments may be to our short term diplomatic advantage, but they are so at the price of being totally illogical. Should the people of Taiwan not be able to express their views on China through a democratic process? The mind boggles and the blood boils!

NeoCons oppose Bush on Taiwan
