U.S. Sen. Patty Murray heads up a congressional trip to China this week, and has decided to blog about it.
This is not some travel-blog that talks about the best Peking Duck and sight seeing spots. The trip involves meetings between U.S. and Chinese officials on things like trade, human rights and energy, so those who are interested in those topics can check in.
The rest of us will just have to wait to see whether there’s a description of eating birds nest soup or a photo of Murray at the Great Wall.
The blog can be found by CLICKING HERE.

Axe, exactly what is it about the senator’s 2002 comment that is not true? Unlike your attempted spin, the senator was explaining Bin Laden’s tactics. He was doing what the US needed to be doing there to win over hearts and minds, namely building schools, roads and even day care centers.
Interesting that at the end of his administration, Bush advocated doing that very thing in Iraq.
