Yay China!

This week marked the 60th anniversary of the rule of Communism in China, which was celebrated by lighting up the Empire State Building in red and yellow. This caused numerous human rights organizations - such as Human Rights Watch, who has offices in the building (as well irking many Americans who are still paying attention), to exclaim, "say WHAT?!?" due to this political party's tendency to um...deny people basic human rights. But, even though communism is the antithesis to the American ideal, a classic American icon is lit up in China's colors to celebrate. Of course, they do own us now. Hooray! So put on your ultra-cool Che shirt, read up on Marx, and give a salute. It's good practice.

So this is how the Obamanation Lefties think "Homeland Security" should work. Decorate and celebrate our buildings with communistic themes, and they won't be bombed, burned, or brought down... Love it.

I hear the Kennedy Center is going to be presenting "Springtime for Hitler" in celebration of Fascism! We have to hit the other side of the spectrum.

Maybe we should all get out of school for a few new holidays: V.I. Lenin Day, Mao in May, Party for Pol Pot, Merry Mussolini Day, and who could forget Kim Jong Il Appreciate Day!

You forgot Castro. Doesn't he deserve a holiday too?
