If I remember correctly, Bush.jr did make a point in his meeting with the Chinese premier on democracy.
The priorities of the cold war made Nixon resume diplomatic ties with China. Something had to be done to counter Soviet-Union, that was the first priority.
But, it was really Henry kissinger's idea. He feigned illness in Pakistan and a handwritten note from Yahaya khan in pakistan to Zhou EnLai was taken by Kissinger to China.
But, remember, Nixon was undecided till the very last moment, to choose between India and China. During a chat between Zhou EnLai and Nixon, EnLai asked Nixon, "Have you read Nehru's book 'discovery of india"? Kissinger sensed that Nixon had not read that book. So he immediately butted in, "He was thinking of a great indian empire.!!!"
Immediately EnLai also butted in and said, "Yes Yes, He was thinking of an great indian empire from Malayasia to Ceylon to Afghanistan and it would probably include our tibet as well." Nixon tilted towards China.
But the whole project
was Kissinger's doing.

I don't dispute Saddam Hussein's atrocities. I also maintain my
assertion that they are being conveniently brought to light to
justify the US military action and killing. Just as those of the
Chinese are being conveniently ignored.

Oops, I forgot, you enjoy living in the political past-- well then
wouldn't it be most accurate to say all of this friendliness with
the Chinese is actually...Nixon's fault, for resuming diplomatic
relations with them in 71?

When? He just had his chance a week ago with the Chinese premier and said nothing, zip. You are indulging your story again...
