Let's not get melodramatic here; no one is embracing evil. They're being polite to one of our biggest trading partners. If that's embracing evil, every shopper in the country is snuggling up to the Devil....

How are the Chinese evil people? Man the ignorance that comes from threads like this amazes me at times.

I admit, I didn't read all the posts this morning. Maybe I should have. It's early.
If you're responding to my original post, that was sarcasm. It's the government I have a beef with.

It would seem that China has us,American vs. American fighting each other;fighting with more then just words but also our feelings.The anger and other hostle feeling bother me.We the People...Where is our brotherhood? A time will come when we as a Nation will be at war with china,I have a way of being right about things like this.But there will be no clear victor,and no glory what so ever.
I will answer the call to arms,just as I've done in the past;with absolute conviction to the oath I swore.I do not look forward to filling my heart once again with hate,it poisins your soul.
We have a duty to each other,all of us that have worn the uniform;and I'm of the opinion that here on the forum we should agree to disagree rather then fight.We have a duty as Americans to be civil to one n'other,no matter what your stance on the issue may be.Lets take a few deep breaths,and calm ourselves.
Save it for the enemy,not each other.

One should not classify the whole of China based on what their LEADERS do. Same goes for any country unless there is something running more deeply than that.
I bet their leaders are pretty power hungry right now, but have learned the lessons that they saw from Russia. Oh yeah. Chineese patience for the win.

But I am sure if you weren't, I'm sure every friggin' liberal blog, website and group, starting with moveon.org., the SEIU, and probably ACORN sure would have a problem with this if it were Bush or some other Republican. Heck, they're all still blaming him for everything. I mean, it's only been what, going on 9 months now. lol
| Nope, wouldn't care. But then, Bush II was never big on diplomacy at all, was he? So he wouldn't have been likely to do it anyway.
Oh I'm kidding, Bush II kissed and held hands with a guy from Saudi Arabia, if you wanna talk human rights violations.
See? easy to play that game right back, but I'd rather not.
But that's all this is, typical diplomatic junk, like all civilized governments tend to do. China may poke at us and their human rights record is indeed, garbage, but they'll never do anything serious because their economy is wedded to ours.
And we can all blame business as opposed to politics for that annoyance.

Well regardless of your intent words like that could certainly be construed otherwise.

Blaming others for being in a perpetual state of indignation while being in a perpetual state of indignation over their perpetual state of indignation is just as bad as being in a perpetual state of indignation over the original issue.
Isn't it?
Thus, putting one's health at risk?

Troy does seem to have an overabundance of stress when he enters this site.
