On a long-planned trip to Asia next week, he will also visit Japan and South Korea, the White House said.

On Saturday, China declared aircraft crossing the zone must obey its rules or face "emergency defensive measures".

US Defence Secretary Chuck Hagel called the move "potentially destabilizing".

There you go..... a sign the administration doesn't want to end the dispute.

I doubt his Chinese jokes will go over very well. I'm sure he will try, but ...

This is a clear example of how little Obama understands foreign policy.  Yusef bin Biden is good for one thing and one thing only, being an emcee at a clown convention. :broc:

This is going to end well.  The jokes just write themselves.

Hey, do you guys really eat dogs? I have a dog. Actually, it's my wife's dog. I can't stand the little yappy thing. You could put it in your pocket. I tried doing that once, but it bit me. Hey, are you going to eat that? What is it? It isn't dog, is it?
