I had the opportunity of privately talking this Saturday to noted local RINO money-bags George Pillsbury and going into some depths on national threat assessments, and the warnings of the knowledgeable Chinese dissidents, such as Harry Wu. It was apparently too much for him to take in. He said " I don't believe that." So I said to him, why should the American people believe you and a small number of plutocrats over such chinese dissidents who are well-informed, intelligent spokesman for liberty? These are men who have put it on the line and who sincerely fear for our national security? He just stammered with a little bit of fear, saying "I just can't believe that, it's too upsetting." You summed that up PERFECTLY!!!! BUMP!!!!
Probably the majority of our government people feel this way. They don't care about facts. THEY REFUSE to accept facts.
If you find 50,000 machine guns in a Taliban hideout... and they are from a Chinese manufacturer... noooo, it absolutely WAS NOT the Chinese who sold them...
They are blinded by propaganda.
The real question is, how do they get to be the way they are...
First, they don't speak, read nor write Chinese. Then they go to China, and look at things with 'white eyes'...
In the end it boils down to, "wow, that guy in the hotel was so nice to me, therefore China is a great place..."
They base their whole assertations on nothing more than that...
China is notorious for kissing the right ass. They can terrorize the masses, but when a Congressman comes to visit, they all smile and shake hands...
The people who really get down and dirty and really see Chinese society from a deep level tend to see beyond the bull#$$%^.
The panda huggers are being played, and thats about all it boils down to.
I too have met with this same naive trust of China. I submit that people over look China's flagrant human rights violations and even their proven aid to enemies of the United States because THEY HAVE INVESTMENTS AND INTERESTS IN CHINA. THEY PUT THEIR MONEY WHERE they thought they could reap the rewards. GREED and confliects of interests is a primary factor in why AMERICA's interests are not being put first.
Many Senators have investments in China. If anyone is interested in more information on this, let me know.
