[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Why wasn't this an issue when a bunch of Republican Senators and Reps visited Taiwan last year?

[quote]A delegation of US lawmakers including Republican senators John Cornyn of Texas and Tommy Tuberville of Alabama landed in Taiwan on Tuesday in a [b]surprise visit [/b]organised by Washington’s de facto embassy on the island.
The group boarded a US Navy C-40A plane from Manila and arrived at Taipei Songshan Airport at around 6pm, according to Taiwanese news reports.
The presence of Cornyn and Tuberville was confirmed by two sources familiar with the trip. One of those sources, who said that six lawmakers were in the travelling group, said it also included senators Mike Crapo of Idaho and Mike Lee of Utah, as well as Representative Jake Ellzey of Texas, also all Republicans.[/quote]

I have bolded the pertinent words for you.

This whole thing has turned into a $hitstorm because *somebody* (the White House, maybe?) leaked the fact that she planned to visit Taiwan.  Had she just gone, visited, and left, there would be no craziness.  
Whoever leaked the trip should be ashamed. And, should lose his/her job.  [/quote]
