Re I wonder if there’s a Chinese word for chutzpah? Well, try “Tibet” as being Chinese. Now that is chutzpah.
When my late friend Ed Hunter talked about what became known as “brain washing” (he was doing an Air Force study in the Red Chinese attempts to brainwash/indoctrinate our POWS captured in the Korean War), he really got into Red Chinese “thought reform” and the deliberate “reeducation” of people by changing the true meanings of words.
So here we have Red China doing a George Orwell “1984” turnabout where “human rights” means “violations of human rights” and Americans are denied voting rights while the Chinese people all have them (except for the Uyghirs, Tibetanese, all political prisoners and their families, many non-communist Chinese and many overseas Chinese.
I need an aspirin!
The next time Kerry or Hillary or Obomination go to Red China, please let them stay.
Obama would be a perfect reincarnation of the Boy Emperor, Pu Yi, but he would be called “Pi Yu”.
By the way, for a historical footnote, Ed Hunter was the only American newsman to ever get an interview with the Boy Emperor (I believe it was in the Forbidden City). Ed went on to join the OSS and CIA, and was one of our foremost authorities on “brainwashing” and wrote a key book entitled, not surprisingly, “Brainwashing in Red China”, about 1954 or 1956.
I’m sure the countless millions of female babies snuffed out at birth for the crime of being female since the imposition of the “one child rule” would disagree... but they’re not available for comment.
Given the HHS abortion mandate, the infringements on our right to keep and bear arms, and other new Obama commands, I can see a few openings for criticism of American human rights. Overall though we are still far better than China - a situation that Obama is trying to reverse.
No, they’re either referring to our practice of putting melamine in our baby formula or our rounding up Christians for not joining our official church.
Those of course would not be points of criticism from a communist regime.
