#1 Sausage? How aptly named. Its that discarded goo-waste thats shoveled up off the floor at the end of the shift and oozed into some sort of membrane.

I think you mean, “…move on.org…“.

It’s the “this time” part that set me off.

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.”

Hearing the chinese officials swear there is no smog is rather reminiscent of “Baghdad Bob” telling us that the americans are nowhere in sight in Iraq!

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.

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.

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”.

So you think that Gitmo represents America abusing human rights?

Like I said, pathetic.

I Do Not Think It Was Wise to Include a Tibetan Figure….

They should have stuck with pandas. It’s called “leading with the chin.”……

Quick, outsource the southern border security to the Commies. They don’t give a dam about rights. Perfect!

Let us also not forget the gross persecution of Christians in China.

I think what Sausage was pointing out, sarcastically, was that the MSM would have been all over it, if “one of them is stuck in Guantanamo Bay!” But, since it is China…well…the MSM always gives them a pass.

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.

Then I apologize for referring to you and misrepresenting your comment, TT. I should have clicked on your web link first.

Lefties can’t tell the difference between a convicted child molester or murderer and an innocent unborn child, how should we expect them to be able to discern between a TERRORIST and an innocent Chinese person having their basic human rights stolen from them?
