Commies suck
This post probably marks the bannination of my Web site from China.
Its formal name is the People's Republic of China, which is two lies for the price of one.
A) It is not a republic. The kind name for it is dictatorship.
B) It does not belong to the people. Tell the members of the Chinese Politburo to go slosh through a rice paddy and see what happens to you.
It already was bad enough.
It's getting to the point where people are beginning to forget that major convulsion that was the year 1989. But I remember. I remember this:
What happened to him? I don't know. I seriously doubt he's alive today, simply because he took a stand in a country and culture that does not place the same value on human life that the Western world does.
Nor do they place a lot of stock in the basic human rights, such as the right to information.
From the Washington Post via Reuters, China to begin controlling Internet news.
George Orwell may have written 1984 when the Soviet Union was the dominant worry, but history once again repeats itself and totalitarianism rears its ugly head.
And these are the people the United States does business with. Basically we promote this kind of dictatorship. We have an ongoing trade relationship with the country that has one of the world's worst records of human rights violations.
This may be the land of the free and the home of the brave, but I wonder just how much we are guilty by association...

America isn't that much better. In fact, aren't you getting the feeling that it is slowly turning into a military dictatorship instead of a democracy? Bush doubles defense spending and no one speaks up about it. Bush plans to place weapons in space, and no one speaks up about it. The traditional image of America as a defender of peace is slowly crumbling because of incompetent politicians. And may I mention those monstrously high casualties in Iraq. Yeah, I know, you crushed a dictatorship. Good for you. Now you replace it with a puppet democracy. Even better.
