Anger at star-studded benefit to raise $150M for WHO

[Mac-7]

The Cold War with the soviet union is over

you can keep dredging up old history

but I am dealing with the present

So am I. In the present, getting in the middle of a slap fight between Beijing and Taipei over who is the real government of China really isn't in our interest.

We have always been in the middle of that fight

Its why we fought and died beside the chinese in WWII

And why we defend Japan and s Korea (and Taiwan) from communist china today

Uh, we were fighting the Japanese in World War II. Then in 1970, Nixon realized Red China was a better ally than Taiwan.

Uh, we were fighting the Japanese in World War II.

no kidding?

I can tell you have really done your homework on this

Imperial japan was bad then, just as communist china is today

Then in 1970, Nixon realized Red China was a better ally than Taiwan.

now tell us how much you admire nixon and what a wonderful president he was

go ahead

from their ivory towers in academia lib scholars in the west believed that communism was just a passing fancy in china

from nixon to obama they always hoped that if we were nice to them china would be our friend

even today many libs view china more favorably than their own country

Nixon did a lot of good stuff. he ended Vietnam, he created OSHA and the EPA, he opened relations with China.

And he also did that Watergate thing.

History will be kinder to Nixon than Trump.

even today many libs view china more favorably than their own country

Which libs are those? The problem isn't that we compare poorly to China, it's that we compare poorly to other industrialized Democracies.
