How long does our national nightmare still have to go?

President Bush on Sunday defended his decision to attend next month's Olympics opening ceremony in Beijing, saying that to boycott "would be an affront to the Chinese people."

No, it would show that you (and by extension we) care about those who the Chinese Government harm. Bring their plight to the forefront. You know, what we freedom loving countries are supposed to be doing. Your going says everything's A OK. Which it ain't. Don't you see how this weakens your denouncing of other countries for their human rights abuses?

One HYOOGE problem wiff us not showing up would be the Chinese calling in our loans we can't pay. And where would Wal-Mart get all the cheap shit we buy?Also, wasn't America built on stealing other people's land?

Also, we seem to have lost the ability to talk about human rights without the rest of the world, well, you know, laughing and shit. But I do hate the Red Chinese. Hate.
