Oh yeah!

The Chinese were freely advertising Mao and Obama as the same person until The Messiah arrived, and BAM!!!!!

Suddenly it's an arrestable offense to compare the two?

What about freedom of speech or freedom of expression? The Communists cannot allow that all of a sudden?

Why isn't the American media reporting this story?

Why must I turn to the internet to find out what is REALLY going on these days?

I found a seller on ebay a few days ago with this t-shirt. In Kentucky! (not from China). It was $10 with shipping - might be $20 today!

The front of the t-shirt says “Serve the People” in Chinese. The Chinese version of ...To Serve Man..? Is the little red book a cookbook?

Soylent Green is people!!!

Are these the “anti Obama” shirts that were banned in the USA?

Note: this topic is from the 16th.
CNN reporter Emily Chang was detained for two hours today in Shanghai for holding up a T-shirt depicting Barack Obama wearing a Red Army uniform. "Chang bought the T-shirt at a basement souvenir shop in Beijing and brought it with her to Shanghai as she covers President Obama's visit to the city." The front of the t-shirt says "Serve the People" in Chinese. On the back, it reads "Oba Mao" in English. The shirts have been seen in Chinese shops for months, but were "banned" ahead of Obama's trip.
