3. China is not all Bush's doing. I believe alot of our issues with them started with Clinton selling them technology, however, there are some serious trade issues with them that need to be straightened out. How much poisoned pet food came over during his term? What about the led paint ordeal? It all happened during his time in office. Many of our jobs went overseas under his watch.

Wow! 
Looks like you drank the Kool-Aid. I don't think you have actually read the Iraq and Afghanistan plans or examined the planning in detail, have you? Did you get these points from the evening news, or a newspaper?
What do you think the EPA is doing to manufacturing in the country, along with unions and new regulations?
Bush had a Repub Congress for six years. The Dims have had it for almost four now. Look at what they have passed or tried to pass since they took charge. Very anti-business and anti-jobs. Those jobs are never coming back.
Clinton gave the Chinese MFN status, IIRC, and let the camel's nose under the tent.
