“China strongly calls for immediate stop of military actions against TIBET, return to track of political solution to TIBET issue,”

that would be a much more worthy statement.

[Willie Green]

Fundamentally, we believe that the U.S. government needs to devote more resources and put in place new programs to build wider expertise about China and to protect our industrial base from eroding as a result of our economic relations with China.

Well I'm a descendent of King Tut and I call for the descendent of Confucious to bite me.

[Shenandoah]

I wonder how many descendents of Richard the Lionheart or William the Conquerer are now rolling through Iraq?

[homeagain balkansvet]

Well, hey, as a direct descendant of Adam and Eve, I tell my cousin Quan to go p!$$ up a rope.

[Hermann the Cherusker]

Some descendants of William the Conqueror's minions are watching enviously.

[inquest]

Wouldn't Quan be his given name? I thought family names came first in China.

Confucius say: Don't mess with the EAGLE's NEST and you won't get CLAWED. The sharp eyed Eagle will find those WMDs.

[Maedhros]

They do. I don't know if the author switched things around or is just ignorant.

The mathematical study of genealogy indicates that everyone in the world is descended from Nefertiti and Confucius, and everyone of European ancestry is descended from Muhammad and Charlemagne.

I don't quite buy that most Patagonians are decendants of Confucius or Charlemagne, but it's an interesting hypothesis.

Tell him to put it in a fortune cookie. We'll get back to him.

For some reason I thought this was another John Kerry ancestry surprise.

[Shenandoah]

Really?! You're a descendant of Adam and Eve, too?! What a small world! So am I! Maybe we ought to start a club.

[BSunday]

My question is - why the heck would anybody care what Confucious or any of his descendants say? He was just a man, and is now dead and with the devil.

[Free Vulcan]

Wow, there's probably what, 5-10 million or more people that could trace their lineage back to Confucius? And that's some seriously strong DNA that can pass his traits across 3,000 years.

[homeagain balkansvet]

I'd never join a club that would have me as a member. Except FR. :-)

[Snickersnee]

My daughters (one coming in from Turkey & another from Kuwait) are descendants of William Wallace. Poor, poor Sadaam.

This was delivered in a fortune cookie, I suppose..
