That is too funny. The Obamarama walked into a Chinese trap. They probably thought that the blind dude would make for a good campaign story and give them some leverage in the negotiations. The Chinese whispered 'boo' so the blind dude got thrown under the bus. The Chinese are laughing at the stupidity and weakness while demanding an apology.
What should we expect? Well, we elected Obama because he called himself "black." He then filled the Whitehouse and diplomatic positions with activists, socialists and rich liberal elites who gave him a lot of money.

Activist Chen Guangcheng says China not honoring deal with U.S. officials
http://www.washingtonpost.com/world/...y.html?hpid=z1
Quote:
Chen, from his hospital room, still managed to thrust himself into the center of the stage-managed diplomacy when he told interviewers that he wanted to fly to the United States with Clinton.
“My fervent hope is that it would be possible for me and my family to leave for the U.S. on Hillary Clinton’s plane,” Chen said in a telephone interview with journalist Melinda Liu of the Daily Beast.

Quote:
Mr Chen is not a fugitive from the law in China. He did not escape legal custody for having broken a law and nor has he been accused of doing so. Yet he and his family had been illegally confined to their home (though they were reportedly reunited with him yesterday). His young daughter has been harassed. His wife has been badly beaten and subsequently denied access to medical facilities. Those who perpetuated such acts have long let it be known that they are employees of the Chinese authorities.
In fact, all Mr Chen did was to escape illegal imprisonment in his own home and travel to another part of his country to seek safety from his tormentors. Mr Chen has reportedly not sought asylum from the US authorities. There is no law that prohibits a Chinese citizen from entering or staying in a foreign embassy if invited. The Chinese demand for the US government to apologise for hosting Mr Chen for six days is ridiculous.
