The invitation is there. We'd all be better off if we'd let the enlightened progressives make decisions for us. And what's a few human rights violations anyway?

Quote:Watching both the health care and climate/energy debates in Congress, it is hard not to draw the following conclusion: There is only one thing worse than one-party autocracy, and that is one-party democracy, which is what we have in America today. One-party autocracy certainly has its drawbacks. But when it is led by a reasonably enlightened group of people, as China is today, it can also have great advantages. That one party can just impose the politically difficult but critically important policies needed to move a society forward in the 21st century.

Nothing that Mach hasn't alluded to in the past.

Friedman has just shot himself in the foot with a 12 gauge. He is rightfully going to be raked over hot coals for this editorial.

Does his 'politically difficult but critically important policies needed to move a society forward in the 21st century." statement include the Chinese "one child" policy? Charging families the cost of the execution of the petty criminal son? Visious crackdowns on dissidents?

I don't get worked up much anymore about political editorials, but this literally made my jaw drop.

Obama is gradually making the mask on the left drop.


John Podesta has hired Van Jones to work for him. So the supposed "Center-Left" apparently just loves them some conspiratorial 9/11 Truthers, self-professed Communist and full blown Cop Killer Apologist in their ranks. Oh, did I mention Racist too?

China is selling organs of it's dead prisoners to wealthy foreigners. People get the death penalty in China for something they say.

Doesn't look like too much of an environmentalist to me. ...but that's the liberal mantra, all for me, none for thee.

how has Friedman made his money other than whatever the NYT pays him and his book sales? I wouldn't think both of those could afford the above?

The creatures outside looked from pig to man, and from man to pig, and from pig to man again; but already it was impossible to say which was which.

Nonsense. I'm sure his pool has a solar heat cover.
