I wonder what China thinks of Democracy the world over?

This was an excellent article.

I am a great admirer of President Bush and I believe it was providence that we have him for such a time as this.

Though some will disagree, I believe that President Bush epitomizes many of the best qualities of the West- including what some call a Wild-West, gunslinging attitude ;-).

In a world ruled by strong-men, the rugged toughness, character, and that fact that he's willing to back up his words with action keep many of our real enemies at bay (for now).

Though President Bush was talking about changes in the Middle East, as I read the text of his recent speech in the UK, I couldn't help but wonder what the leadership of China thought about his statements (paraphrased) that it is a G_d-given right for everyone to be free and that it's inevitable that Democracy would spread throughout the world?
