I think we need to have a curfew of foriegn chefs. They can no longer leave their restaurants, may not drink after 10pm, and I'll expect a day of reflection for them to properly think about thier behavior while on foriegn soil.

I wonder how much China pays these people to come into forums like this and scream about an anti-bias?
The footage is not cooked. They call say the bias is from "the west", but not all the footage is from the US, or "the west". Footage is available from other media that shows the exact same thing. Is the ENTIRE world editing their footage to show an anti-China bias?
And here's the tricky part? Is everyone, all over the world, editing the EXACT same footage to show the EXACT same thing? Yea, what are the odds that manipulated footage, but different people, is gonna result in the exact same footage? "Hey, what a suprise... I inserted a guy with tan pans and a blue shirt hitting the exact same guy as you did..."
Get over it.... the images displayed are the truth.
China has an immense history of doing whatever it wants and then when it gets seen by the outside world.... they deny, accuse and whine about how everyone hates the poor, misunderstood, Chinese. Their statements will, 100% of the time, use the words "ignorance", "hostility" and "vicious"...
It would be almost funny if it wasn't so predictable. It happens EVERY time. You know what else? You can take "China" in the entire above post and replace it with "DPRK" and it is just as true.

No... He is "FORMER President Clinton". His wife, who ALSO thinks she is "former President Clinton" and him share one little attribute that they other former presidents, senile or not, don't. These TWO STILL believe they are ACTIVELY in control (her more than him, surprisingly!). And with the politicial spin doctors she has, it's no wonder.
They are only "Mr. President", even if they are formally President, when addressed in person (out of "respect", I'm assuming, for the position they held, not the job they did!). Their ACTUAL title is FORMER.

Simon,
Your right, they don't buy your life, but this is NOT about thier private life, or even their private email. This is about company provided email accounts. That are run on company provided email servers. That go thru company provided network lines. That the company pays for.
In other words, your using company equipment, on company time, supposedly doing company business. There should be no expectations of "private and personal" on the company dime using company technology. There is NO civil liberty infractions going on here.

Farmboy... you know... that is quite an astute observation. I'm surprised there was more than a couple of posts before someone mentioned it.
FNC... "well-respected"? Well, duh! Anyone that capitulates, caves and gives the other side (whomever it is he is dealing with at that time) everything they ask for is of COURSE gonna be well-respected by them. His negotiation skills are internationally renowned on ALL the middle school debate teams. With the exception of Egypt (which was more Begin than him) exactly WHAT has the peanut farmer done for the US?

Grouchy,
It certainly was yelled at the protective detail when Bubba was prez... She thought the military were her aides to be ordered around on little errands like retrieving Chelseas school books she left behind on a trip to Camp David.

"If you were captured by the Taliban or some other terrorist group, strapped to a board and waterboarded to within an inch of your life, would you complain?"
Hell yes, I'd complain. I'd also tell them anything I knew that would stop it from continuing. THAT IS THE POINT. And it works.
Lying, to get them to stop, does no good. Information that is lies tends to not get collaberated, or is obvioius when combined with other information. It may stop the torture NOW, but when it resumes, it's gonna be much worse.
One point. The current "war" we are in is not something the framers could have possibily predicted and been prepared for. THAT DOES NOT MEAN THAT WE CAN DO ANYTHING WE WANT. What it does mean is that there needs to be some flexiblity, installed by the courts (warrantless wiretapping WITH VERY GOOD OVERSIGHT), the administration taking some steps to protect the population, and the politicians pointing to a goal and then staying the hell out of the militarys way to obtain that goal. And for our representatives to either support the military entirely, or shut up.

Sushi... "Heh, I'm guessing that dano2002, redacted, Sarge, etc. and all the other JT posters who embrace torture haven't actually been within 1,000 miles of the Iraq or Afghanistan battle spaces, and I also bet they don't contribute in any meaningful way at all to fighting the "War on Terror."
As I'm one of the "all" your talking about, I'll take that bet. When should we get together for you to hand me whatever winnings that are coming to me?
Has it not occured to you that some people may support those things BECAUSE they've been within the "battle space"? Those that have spent time in the AOR can tell you, and often prove quite easily, how the MSM reports are either inaccurate, incomplete, and often flat out wrong. And those reports are what YOU base your information on. So why, pray tell, would those of use with experience in theater, listen to those whose experience tends to be entirely "frantically typing insults on their PCs"?
And your offbase. WAY off base.

Grouchy... I bet Ezra will disagree with you about the extent of Canadian Free Speech. I certainly agree with you, but it is obvious after everything that Ezra has gone, and IS going thru, that freedom of speech is no more "balanced" than it is in the U.S.

"you not wanted or needed"
You know, I haven't heard anything that funny in a very long time. You should come and preach to all my Japanese neighbors. They LOOK Japanese. They sound it. They even have Japanese names. Funny enough, I guess they're not in the majority. Not a single one of them will tell you that we are not wanted or needed. Not a one of them has treated me different than before the murder. Matter of fact, just about every one of them has approached me since he was turned over to the JN's telling me "tai-hen desu ne?" (I just know that spelling is whacked!) or even "good job".
