Bush criticizes Syria while Senators talk

It's about time that the Congress takes over the foreign policy that bush is incapable of doing. Not talking to so called enemies is not foreign policy.

Christmas in Tokyo

July 13th, 1987 - US Senate votes to prohibit Toshiba from selling products in the US for 2 to 5 years. The sanction vote was intended to punish Toshiba, whose 50.1%-owned Toshiba Machine subsidiary joined with Kongsberg to sell then Soviet Union top-secret US Defense propellor technology, that enabled Russian attack submarines to move quietly underwater and thus escape detection by US forces.

December 16th, 2006 - Westinghouse, America's pre-eminent nuclear powerplant development company, recently bought out by Toshiba, wins an award to sell China four nuclear reactors. The $8B deal requires transfer of US nuclear power technology to the Chinese, so (still Red Communist and trading partner to Iran) China can become the new global discount price leader. "The US, which is running a record trade deficit with China, estimated that the deal would create more than 5,000 American jobs. At the heart of the deal was the promise of transfer of US nuclear power technology from the US firm to China, analysts said."

Poof ... for 5,000 short-term jobs, and 12 silver shekhels...our US State Department gives away what they're then demanding US taxpayers pony up $100B and 30,000 fresh recruits, to fight a two-front war against China's nuclear trading partner, Iran.
