LOL:

"Tourists were squirming as the city's 102-story landmark ? which gained a special significance for New Yorker's after 9/11, when it again became Manhattan's tallest building ? was being converted into a shining red beacon for Chinese communism."

Uh-huh, I bet "tourists" were just about to faint in fact, hail ants!

Only 40 showed up to protest in NYC? Alert the media!

More fail from FNC.

I like that the NY consul said the celebration honors "the 1.3 billion Chinese people and the 60th anniversary of their country" when Chinese culture is one of the oldest on the planet, and the land itself, despite numerous redrawings of the boundaries, has been known as China for hundreds of years. 60th anniversary of a revolution maybe, but not their country.

I don't really care for this, seems in poor taste to honor a nation that treats its people that poorly.

Not afraid of communism, just think China doesn't deserve to be honored for the systematic destruction of human rights.

And yet, you buy their shit, made by people making $50 or less a week, with no overtime limits. Free market FTW!

In a country where $50 goes much farther than it does here....perspective, sir.

Sure you can. Vote out the pieces of shit that sold out blue collar America for higher profits, and bring industry back to America. Or is that too Socialist for you?

Closing down factories, firing all the employees, and shipping all manufacturing jobs overseas where they can be done for pennies on the dollar without reducing the price customers pay, netting an enormous increase in profits for executives and shareholders while the former employees get nothing?

But what does that have to do with China?
