Comments on: U.S. Giving China A Pass On Human Rights?

CBS Evening News: In Beijing, Clinton Stresses Collaboration On World Crises As Top Priority

The real deal is that if China will donate to the Clinton Foundation (Off Shore) then Hillary wont bring up Human Rights Issues. There is also the matter of her campaign debts that need paying. China just might be in a position to see these cleared up.

Clinton and anyone that won't address China's human rights violations might as well join Bush and Cheney in the list of people in our government that have their hands soaked in blood.

Clinton didn't talk about Tibet and China didn't mention Abu Ghraib, Guantanamo, Afghanistan, Palestine or the million killed in Iraq. Good thing old Hil kept her mouth shut for a change.

%u201COne could also ask why HRC did not visit North Korea or Iran just as a way to get to know the governments%u201D

Wanted to expand on this line from my post near the bottom of page one. First I want to change the word or to and. She would have been as safe or safer because I think Kim and Ahmadinejad would have been thrilled to have such a high ranking US official visit if only to say I wanted to come to meet you. SOS is a very high ranking job. Ahmadinejad likes flowers on his talk table and sure HRC would have seen a garden full. Im not sure how the setting in Korea would have looked like but im sure it also would have been grand. What a better way for the US to reach out after years of failed policies. They all know OB is busy at home dealing with the mess we are in. I just hope he spends a little more time in Washington and a lot of less time on air force 1 looking for photo ops. We all know what he looks like we don%u2019t need anymore pretty pictures for awhile. Well im just thinking out loud but it seems politics always get in the way.

It would be extremely awkward to berate China for violations while asking them to keep buying t-bills. Maybe we could cook up a deal with China to sell them San Francisco to redeem the T-bills.

With the "patriot act",torture as policy,& two foreign wars,how can the US point the finger at ANY other nation ?

You mean like Clinton allowing the sale of military satellite technology to China during his term(treason) as well as personally accepting Chinese money. That's why you wont hear anything knocking the Chinese. Plus she has to kiss their a$$, our govt. is expecting China to bail us out. You can't go to the banker, rip them a new one and expect a loan. Pucker up Hill, for the country of coarse.

Can we really stand another "Clinton" rape.

President Obama is just playing us...we are on our way...the Clintons are ever so socialist, and President Obama is trying to be real,

Posted by MommaKat64 at 05:46 AM : Feb 22, 2009................Both parties of our government are corrupt,,,,,they need to be replaced and those in office now need to be jailed for TREASON.

The simple fact,the simple mathematical and statistical fact is that the US has a larger percentage of its population in prison than China does. (or any other country for that matter)

Pot/Kettle, doesn't matter which. You can't get on someone else for a situation that you seem to be having an issue with yourself. Not if the issue is something you would rather not have people looking at.

She made it clear that the Obama administration sees China as an ally rather than a competitor or adversary.

She went on to say - Don't I look & act like a brilliant SOS compared to Condi? By the way Mr. Wong, Thanks for the generous gift to the Clinton Library. We're on your side $$$$$ concerning human rights. Cackle cackle cackele
