Might the followers of Mao in the Obama administration have just had their first success?

The Washington Times reports that:
"President Obama recently shifted authority for approving sales to China of missile and space technology from the White House to the Commerce Department -- a move critics say will loosen export controls and potentially benefit Chinese missile development.

The president issued a little-noticed "presidential determination" Sept. 29 that delegated authority for determining whether missile and space exports should be approved for China to Commerce Secretary Gary Locke. "
See the second part of my piece earlier today for an explanation of the Maoist reference...
