#1 Actually it does and has been the cornerstone of 40 years of policy towards Tiawan and China.

Dumb bitch. Shut up before you empower the enemy more and kill millions.

#5 Di Fi is vulnreble on lots of issues if California conservates could/would break the deth grip that Orange County has on the Republican leadership and direction of the State.

This is just one, energy and immigration are otehrs.

This is totally stupid and the ChiComs should not think she speaks for the US Government, she doesn't. She is just one Senator a law maker and ratifier not the management or court system.

#7 We're not all foolish newc. SpoD is right, the True Believers have had a death grip on the party here for a while. Seems they would rather be at total peace with themselves than win elections.

I used to think DiFi was tolerable and reliable in a pinch. But I guess she's just decided to be Barbara Boxer's twin. A shame really, she used to have some spine.

#8 nor is San Diego County or Imperial County, Dem central. The state' ssplit upper (read SF/LA) coat vs the rest of the state. Too many conservative republicans (I consider myself one, with some libertarian ideals) would rather remain pure, and in the minority, than win statewide with some moderate positions in the plank. Those dinosaurs will become our future fuel oil for change

#9 I think she probably has a point, simply through current observation and extension. Apparently, we are "under no obligation to defend" ...... California, Arizona, or Texas.

#10 
Di-Fi is up for re-election this year. Is there anyone running against her? She has to go.

I hated her when she Mayor of SanFran, I was appalled when she was elected to the Senate.

#11 Translation: you Chicoms gave dough to Clinton / Gore, I want some too.

#12 This isn't dumb, this is dangerously dumb. The Korean War started after a Truman administration official left South Korea out of a map that indicated what we would and wouldn't defend.

#13 CHicoms > iff Clintonian SOCIALIST Amerika doesn't have the gonads to defend TAIWAN, why should it defend any of its Allies in East Asia, from Australia to Japan. Why should Americans defend Amerika - AND NOW YOU KNOW WHY INTERFAX, ru > RUSSIAN BOMBERS BUZZED AND PENETRATED CANADIAN AIRSPACE. Good Clintonians demand to be saved by the Commie Airborne, so that they can rewarded by being those special seats on the future CPUSA's Plitburo and Presidium which Russia-China never promised to give them. The Chicom white paper may had alluded to Amer Holocaust but there is no holocaust becuz, ala CLINTONISM, Socialist Amerikans demanded to be destroyed anyway, to be ruled by anyone except an American or even any American Socialist. ALL TOGETHER, BOYZ, LIKE BRITNEY - OOOOOOOOPPPSSSIES, and say it wid feeling. Now make the Commmies, your parents, and American Socialism proud by getting out there and enthusiastically reporting to your local death camp for extermination, to the best best Best BEST B-E-S-T, D *** YOU, of your ability. There are Commies and Absolutists out there starving, dying, and cannibalizin' becuz of Amerikan Rightist Socialists selfishdesire to stay alive and live a prosperous life without universal dependence on Government or even "proper/true Socialism. We Amerikan Rightist Socialists are despicable, selfish, mongrel. arrogant Male Brute lot, aren't we!?
