My opinion is a mixed one on this one.
It reminds me of the "ukhaan" "na jaane gau ko bato nai no sodhnu" which , for instance, may apply for an American working in the coal mines of West Virginia. But as senior govt. official this guy should have done a quick research on the country of China and Nepal, where they are located on the globe and how the question of Olympic boycott stemmed from in the first place. His confusion of "Nepal" for "Tibet" may be because of the fact that the latter is not even a country and Nepal shares its northern borders with China.
Bush advisers are as incompetent as himself. This chap just inducted himself in the Bush Admin. Hall of Shame if such a thing exists. The other failures are: Rumsfeld, Cheney, Ashcroft etc.
BTW, a distinguished guy like George Stephanopoulous should be working for more esteemed channels like CNN or BBC and not for a lying bunch like ABC or Fox. Why he did not correct Hadley? It is not appropriate to correct a senior official. But all this time George was trying to elicit out of Hadley's mouth whether or not Bush will be attending the opening ceremony which the adviser was dodging. And mind you, when on air they are on time pressure to cover the most urgent and the most important issues and topics only.
