I bet Mr. Bush even owns many products made by those nasty communists. In fact- I bet everyone here does- your toothbrush, the plastic Happy Meal toy in your kids lunch, and even those nice little American flags we bought at the 4th of July parade.....

We are paying them billions of dollars when (apparently) we should have been bombing them. What WERE we thinking?

:-)

You know I'm joking GST, but for anyone who might have thought I was remotely serious, I'm not.

Communists who have embraced capitalism and abandoned international revolution their idealogy.

No one there believes in Communism anymore. In fact, I heard a Chinese person (in China) say so in a radio interview not too long ago. Now if it wasn't true he wouldn't have been brave enough to say that into a microphone.

All of which I'm sure you know as well as anyone.

Of course, the gov't is still authoritarian and determined to cling to power as long as possible.

China is closer to fascism than communism nowadays.
