This posted in response to the article "Western reports get a lashing from foreigners" if west media wants to come into china and tibet, they should apologize to 1.2 billion chinese ppl for publishing those misinformed pictures and articles first ,fire those who were responsible second. Otherwise why would china let a bunch of lying and hating journalists into their country? and by the way, to show a good will, US goverment should open guantanamo bay prison to chinese media immediately.

Shanghai Daily Shanghai Daily is reporting that not only the Netizens but foreigners are taking their side. "WHILE some Western media have accused China of a "violent crackdown" on the "peaceful protests" in Tibet Autonomous Region, some foreigners have spoken out against the coverage." So here we go again. Does it ever end. NO! Please go read about these "Foreigners" and what they really had to say.

New York’s Governor David Paterson (D) boasted that unlike his predecessor, the disgraced former Democratic Governor Eliot Spitzer, he’s never paid high or low priced prostitutes for sex. “Eliot doesn’t have mojo,” Paterson asserted. “When you’ve got mojo like I have the babes beg for it.” Mojo, however, may not have been Paterson’s only asset in wooing the babes. It appears that campaign cash and appointments to state jobs may have played a role in greasing the skids for his liaisons. At least two state employees have been alleged to have had illicit trysts with Paterson “during the rocky years...

Normally at this stage of the campaign season there is a big lull until the conventions during the summer. The big primaries have passed and the nominees of each party have been designated. All that awaits is their coronations at their respective conventions...until this year. That pattern was SHATTERED in a dramatic fashion by one Rush Limbaugh a few weeks ago when he suggested that Republican voters in Ohio and Texas switch over to the Democrat party for the express purpose of causing chaos. Despite some initial MSM skepticism, Rush's plan worked BEAUTIFULLY. Hillary won both states and is...

In general I've little interest in the Hillary Clinton-bashing pervasive in the men's and fathers' movement. One example of Hillary's alleged misdeeds which is often cited by men's activists is the "No woman is illegal" incident. It occurred while Clinton was campaigning in Nevada in January and is based on the following from the Las Vegas Review-Journal: "Clinton and her busload of traveling press moved from there to the popular local Mexican restaurant Lindo Michoacan, where a 'roundtable' that was actually square passed a microphone around to tell her people's concerns about the mortgage crisis and foreclosures. She took notes...

Ok, it must be really really embarrassing for Democrats to discover that their saintly Obama probably hates America just the he way his wife, minister, fellow congregants, and friends do; the way the O.J. Simpson jury did, and the way his children someday will. And gee, they thought he was such a nice man with such a nice, safe, pure, transcendent message. Yet, it turns out that all the transcendence and hope was in direct proportion to his hatred of America. And no wonder he was so transcendent - if he had talked in any real way he probably would...

The Zionist Organization of America has “called upon Democratic presidential candidate Senator Barack Obama (D-IL) to quit his racist, anti-American, anti-Israel church and repudiate his pastor, Jeremiah Wright.” Noting that the National Jewish Democratic Council condemned Mitt Romney for appearing at the museum of a long-dead EX-antisemite, we are confident that NJDC will support ZOA’s request. Henry Ford retracted and repudiated The International Jew, but Jeremiah Wright has never retracted, repudiated, or apologized for his own hate speech, his publication of a manifesto from a genuine Hamas terrorist, or his placement of quote marks around “state” of Israel, as if...

Feministing brings us today's outraged-over-nothing report, with Taco Bell's Mysogynist Hot Sauce (I'm not kidding). The feminists are complaining about Taco Bell's new ad campaign, called "Direct Daniella", in which they've partnered up with Sports Illustrated to give some lucky customer the chance to be the photographer in a Sports Illustrated: Swimsuit Edition photo shoot. They are, of course, offended and simply OUTRAGED!: "One of our readers sent us an email recently, rightfully confused as to why Taco Bell's hot sauce packets are now printed with a website that leads you to perhaps the creepiest ad campaign ever. "Direct Daniella"...

The Democrat Party leaders yesterday seized on the 4,000th U.S. death in Iraq to score political points with their base.The Democrat Party, for the last five years, has done everything they can to ensure defeat and retreat in the war on terror.Will the ghoulish use of our brave Troops, as a political calculation,be a milestone or a millstone for the Democrat party in November?

Obama's Church: Israel Planned Ethnic Bomb To Kill Blacks & Arabs More Dirt on a Dirty Church-- Obama's Church published anti-Semitic articles claiming Jews were working on "ethnic bombs." Sweetness and Light and American Thinker discovered this "Open Letter to Oprah" today from Obama's church newsletter the Trinity United Church of Christ. The letter describes how Israel was working on an ethnic bomb that would kill Arabs and Blacks: Carl from Jerusalem reported this ethnic bomb: Israel was the closest ally to the White Supremacists of South Africa. In fact, South Africa allowed Israel to test its nuclear weapons in...

Democratic presidential hopeful Sen. Barack Obama is currently hiding his anti-Israel views in order to get elected, according to a well-known anti-Israel activist. The activist, Ali Abunimah, claimed to know Obama well and to have met him on numerous occasions at pro-Palestinian events in Chicago. In an article he penned for the anti-Israeli website Electronic Intifada, Abunimah wrote: "The last time I spoke to Obama was in the winter of 2004 at a gathering in Chicago’s Hyde Park neighborhood. He was in the midst of a primary campaign to secure the Democratic nomination for the United States Senate seat he...

You say you are devoted to Reverend Wright because he brought you to Christ. I can only imagine how powerful a relationship that forges. But, my imperfect understanding of the Christian Faith tells me you can do him an equally magnificent service: You can help bring him back to Christ. Show him redemption and salvation lie not in the satisfaction of doing little dances in a pulpit while you slander good and decent people. Teach him that great leadership and Christian love abjures the very filth – and I pick that word deliberately – that he spews on an apparently...

By popular demand (meaning regular commenter DEC, who writes the bizarrely riveting blog Jungle Trader), herewith the CBS News report that tags Hillary with having fabricated "sniper fire" during her trip to Bosnia back in the 1990s. It rather graphically shows that Hillary made the story up out of whole cloth. Hillary's campaign now says that she "misspoke," whatever that means. This is a perplexing gaffe, because it is so easily revealed as wrong. There were many reporters with rolling cameras following Hillary around Bosnia, and the absence of actual snipers or even sounds that might have been confused with...

“I remember landing under sniper fire.” War Room: When she stepped up to the dais, Clinton too remembered the harrowing Balkan adventure. “I remember landing under sniper fire,” she recalled. She and her retinue were then sent “running with our heads down to our vehicles.” Her courageous fellow travelers for that 1996 trip included her daughter, Chelsea — oh, and singer Sheryl Crow, plus comedian Sinbad. As Sinbad remembers it: I never felt that I was in a dangerous position. I never felt being in a sense of peril, or “Oh, God, I hope I’m going to be OK when...

I might have to FedEx out a mass shipment of Kewpie dolls to the DUmmies for having a brief moment of mental clarity. They seem to have an accurate understanding about Hillary and Obama. Of course, they think their own candidate is pure as the winter slush but they are saying things about each other that, until recently, only the EVIL Republicans have been saying. This is particularly true in the DUmmie comments about the Clintons as you can see in this DUmmie THREAD titled, "Is anyone else asking themselves, 'Were the Clintons always like this?'" So let us...

Here's a True Crime Update and Easter did not stop the criminals. We've got stories on the awful person who slaughtered the mountain gorillas and the identity of this person is shocking. It's okay for a famous steak house to demand that patrons speak English, a cop is charged with rape, a thief hypnotizes his victims, a man whose dog killed his son is arrested and some alleged humans torture a retarded human being to death. Finally, an update on the lady on the toilet for two years and a lawsuit by a man who got his by a stripper's...

What if the far left got everything they whine for?

Many conservatives are feeling left out of the 2008 presidential race, with the likes of Hillary Clinton and Barack Obama battling for the Democratic nomination and the GOP endorsement likely going to U.S. Sen. John McCain, who has worked with Democrats on campaign limits as well as amnesty for illegal aliens, and in 2004 actually was thought of as a possible running mate for Democratic candidate John Kerry. Some prominent leaders, including Focus on the Family founder James Dobson, even have said they will not vote rather than vote for the liberal leanings of McCain. So is 2008 the year...
