BEIJING OLYMPICS: MONEY TALKS

Files under General | Jul 6th

President George Bush:

“The Chinese people are watching very carefully about the decisions by world leaders and I happen to believe that not going to the opening ceremony for the games would be an affront to the Chinese people, which may make it more difficult to be able to speak frankly with the Chinese leadership.

What about human rights?

What about jailed journalists?

Well, money talks.

But we need world leaders, not merchants.
