You're a friggin' idiot, Snippy.

What statement(s) in the article is/are false?

Want a list?

Yes.

Not necessary. One screwup destroys the author's
credibility. See my other message.

"The United States of America and the People's Republic of China have
agreed to recognize each other and to establish diplomatic relations
as of January 1, 1979."

Article's right. You're wrong.

Oh. I forgot. You need simplicity, so you point to the date when a
piece of paper was signed. You don't want to know that the Chinese put
on a banquet for Nixon in 69 or 71 - somewhere in that range, and that
we were also sending diplomats (and ping pong players) back & forth
constantly in those days.

If you put ping pong players ahead of embassies in the defining of "the
establishment of diplomatic relations" there is no hope for you.

Not that this comes as news to anybody.

So, you're not familiar with the sheer volume of government contact we had
with China, 10 years before that piece of paper was signed? I suppose if the
piece of paper suits your definition of "who sucked off the Chinese first",
there's not much I can do to change your mind. But, the fact is, it was
Nixon & Kissinger. Nixon *needed* to do it, to put some kind of positive
spin on his work at the time.

How old are you?

Old enough to remember it was the radical wing of the Democratic party
that started the modern day politics of personal destruction. They blame
Republicans for all their blundering. And let's not forget the subject
here, Carter has done more real damage to America than any other
President.
