In the Nov 7th post, Chutzpah, I mentioned that a Chinese official visited Taiwan, and demanded that the Taiwanese flag and pictures of the Taiwanese president be removed from places he visited. Kinda like having a vampire over and he orders you to hide all your mirrors.
The Taipei Times tells of the response. The KMT, ever eager to be in the good graces of the Butchers of Beijing, complied. I wonder, would the American Democratic Party have been so accomodating if the Soviets had made similar demands during the Cold War?
It would have been political suicide. Not here, though. Not here.
