"and you can bet he asked for asylum" 

Says YOU, and NOT those on the ground.

Obviously he stayed at the embassy for six days, so they didn't throw him out.

“I can tell you unequivocally that he was never pressured to leave” the U.S. embassy in Beijing, Locke said. “We waited for him to make his decision.”

re: "If this occurs I expect Muffin to apologize for his out of bounds attack on Obama. (yeah right...)"


And what about if it DOESN'T, clo?

Remember, Chen was in the U.S. embassy for six days. You can bet that he didn't go there for the food. He was in danger, and you can bet he asked for asylum. Embassy officials escorted him out - after speaking to the White House.

So, who should apologize if Chen DOESN'T make it to the U.S.? Note that Hillary left without him. He's best forgotten, in her view. This is a campaign year, and it's obvious that the President just screwed up big time. (Again! His whole term in office has been a long series of screwups, hasn't it?) 



Clinton leaves China without blind activist Chen Guangcheng as fears grow for those who helped him flee to U.S. Embassy
