given the choice between "liberals" who protest a Communist Chinese dictator and American politicians and business leaders who grovel in front of same, I know who I'd have more respect for.
I actually have no idea what the ideology of these protestors is: liberal, conservative, or something else. But apparently this poster thinks they deserve ridicule--why, I don't know. You see the strangest things on FR lately.
My intent isn't to ridicule them, but rather, to point out that while they are busy protesting Hu and by way of Hu, the Chinese government, I'm sure they are buying up all the Made-In-China bargains they can, as do most folks.
On the other hand, we will not simply copy the political models of other countries
With China's oppression of Christians...Hu sounds alot like Howard Dean!!!!
