I Thought Only Nixon Could

So President Bush is going to the Chinese Olympics. A lot of human rights groups are disappointed, but I can't say I'm surprised. It would have been quite a diplomatic slap in the face to boycott them.

I don't see how anyone can support China's human rights record, but as to what the President should do, I really don't know. Unless you've got a really good reason, better to remain engaged with a country. Sure, I'd like him to make a statement of some sort, but would it really help?
