I'm conservative, capitalist, right-wing and probably on your side. I hate
many things
that Billy Boy and Hillary did . . . BUT The first time I recall China and it's
"most
favored nation" status was under ol' Tricky Dicky!

Excuse me, I misspoke; should have read "*permanent* status". Prior to Slick
Willie, China's MFN status had to be renewed periodically (annually, IIRC) to
remain in effect.
