The lost China Olympics mascot

By Michelle Malkin  •  August 8, 2008 04:11 PM

The soft-and-cuddly Communist p.r. operatives designed five lovable mascots for the Olympics, including “YingYing the Tibetan antelope:”

Doug Powers strips off the whitewash and redesigns the logos the right way:

    Nice shot..ok, not so much.

    I dont think you can logically make a case that compares how gitmo detainees are treated to China’s human rights record.

    But feel free to try, if you like exercises in futility.

    The trials are underway, Sausage, what more do you want? And you can bet, Hamdan got off a lot easier going before the Gitmo tribunal committee than he would have most U.S. court systems, or at least those outside NY and CA.

    I’m almost willing to bet good money that a month after he’s “repatriated” Hamdan is either killed or captured in Afghanistan.

    That’s assuming of course, that we don’t give him political asylum along with a taxpayer funded house and a job here in the U.S., since we can’t find anyone to take him without promising to not torture him. /sarc

    Oh, and I agree, sausage is giving the Chinese government way too much credit if he’s comparing treatment in Gitmo with treatment in a Chicom prison camp.

    I wonder how many Chinese political prisoners are gaining weight and reading the Bible?

    Except that a Chinese, cartoon mascot never murdered a great kid who started his first job, on the same day, at the same firm that I did, but then later, moved on to work at a firm on the 105th floor of Tower One at the World Trade Center on September 11, 2001.

    I’m also referring to Khalid Sheikh Mohammed down at Gitmo, and before I forget to mention it…thanks sausage, you’re a real class act.

    And just like Al Pacino said it in ‘A Scent of a Woman:’

    What bugs me is that the media, El Presidente Boosh, even Drudge are focusing — as was no doubt intended — on Olympic Glory and are letting the Chicoms slide on human rights, pollution, economic sabotage and a host of other little nasties.

    Has nothing to do with Gitmo. We have treated our enemies like we treat illegal aliens: with more care than many Americans get.

    What’s with the stupid assertion that all prisoners are the same. In China virtually everyone posting here would be eligible for prison and torture just for what we are writing. Think about that: if right now you had to worry that Bush would be ordering someone to come get you and haul you away for what you’re writing. Not a concern is it? Don’t trivialize how freedom loving people live under the Chinese thumb. Gitmo prisoners are accused of trying to kill Americans, not just speak out. And they will get real trials not pretend ones with predetermined outcomes.

    It does seem to stupid to be serious.

    If it sarcasm: Great point, I agree, and my previous post is for all the moonbats who often make that silly relativistic point.

    If not, then we have a moonbat.

    Nice try, except for this little jewel:

    it’s China abusing human rights this time

    As we all know, the last time human rights were being abused was in Gitmo, right? Right, at least, in Sausage’s version of reality.

    I don’t condone China’s real (not perceived) human rights abuses, but saying that Gitmo even comes close to constituting human rights violations, especially relative to China, is absurd.

    Plus, let’s not forget that this is “Sausage” we’re talking about. It’s funny how liberals never seem to hold actual criminals accountable for actual crimes. Many liberal heroes are mass murderers and criminals of various ilks. No, they expend inordinate amounts of energy villifying people (and governments) whose only real “crime” is disagreeing with far left, socialist ideals.

    To compare the detention of captured terrorist and illegal combatants to the atrocities committed against Tibet by Communist Red China is pathetic.

    Liberals see the two as equivalent examples. Facts don’t really ever get in the way of liberal “logic”.

    I’ll give you a “B” for demonstrating the tu quoque fallacy, but you fell short of an “A” due to the lack of actual human rights abuses at Gitmo.

    I gotta go with Sausage being wholly sarcastic about the world-wide pass the Chinese get for their well documented abuse of human rights…. as compared to the unsubstantiated reports of alleged abuse at Gitmo.

    I also find it ironic, that the press gives more of a damn about so-called abuse at Gitmo, when on the other side of the fenceline, Cuba will beat and jail anybody for anything….and we rarely hear about it.

    Same here, Brian NY. It read – and still reads – like Sausage is equating our treatment of Gitmo detainees to the treatment China exacts on its dissidents, which cannot be made: China murders its “detainees.”
