Chutzpah = killing one’s parents and asking the court for mercy because one is an orphan

by Bill Levinson

We came across this glaring example of chutzpah from the country that murders political prisoners to sell their organs, and that recently sold us poisoned pet food, in the Wall Street Journal. Wei Xin, Press Attache, Embassy of the People’s Republic of China, will probably be dragged home for “reeducation” once his masters realize that he made his country look ridiculous with this letter. After all, he is talking to educated Wall Street Journal readers, not Chinese peasants who know only what their masters choose to tell them.

This is a good lead-in for the chutzpah of prominent Democrats who are blaming George Bush for involving us in Iraq, when they themselves bayed for Saddam Hussein’s blood as loudly as any Republican ever did. This underscores their total lack of character, maturity, ethics, and judgment, plus their obvious contempt for the American people whom they expect to believe their line of taqqiya.

Let us begin, however, what the pet-poisoner, dissident-torturer, and organ-seller had to say.

As a member of the United Nations Human Rights Council, the Chinese government has always been committed to the promotion and protection of human rights and basic freedoms, except when Mao Tze Tung slaughtered about seven times as many people as Hitler did while executing political prisoners and selling their organs. China has also been involved in dialogue and promoting cooperation among cultures and religions to this end. However, as a sovereign country China has the right and duty to punish criminals, which is China’s term for anyone who opposes the government, practices Falun Gong, or is a Christian. A person engaged in compromising China’s territorial integrity by recognizing the independence of Taiwan or complaining about China’s illegal occupation of Tibet is in no position to make indiscreet remarks in this regard.

We know how offensive it is to call a gentleman a liar, but Mr. Xin’s signature under this statement shows that he is not a gentleman. Furthermore, his apparent expectation that the Wall Street Journal’s highly educated readers would actually believe this can only be taken as a deliberate insult to our intelligence, and it deserves the most contemptuous response: Wei Xin is a liar, not a gentleman, unworthy of the courtesy a gentleman or lady of breeding shows a pet or domestic animal, and a total disgrace to his parents and ancestors. The presence of his dictatorship on the United Nations Human Rights Council simply underscores the UN’s dishonorable and worthless nature as well.

What is truly frightening, however, is the fact that there are people in this world who actually think lies this blatant are believable. Holocaust deniers expect to convince people that Hitler did not murder six million Jews, three million Polish Catholics, half a million Gypsies, and a substantial number of Slavic Russians and Ukranians. As George Orwell pointed out in 1984, he who controls the past controls the present, and vice versa. The person who can rewrite history to suit his own agenda can indeed control the world.

9/11 Denial, as practiced by MoveOn.org, the Jeff Rense Show (tonight they were talking about the evil effects of fluoride, along with mind control rays), and Rosie O’Donnell, is exactly like Holocaust denial except it excuses, explains away, writes off, or blames on someone other than the actual perpetrator four missing airplanes and two missing skyscrapers instead of ten million missing Jews, Polish Catholics, Gypsies, and so on.

Next we come to Democratic Demagoguery, also known as Blame Bush. While Bush deserves plenty of blame for running the war in Iraq the way Lyndon Johnson ran the war in Vietnam, the Democrats’ claim that he lied to the country and/or led it into an unnecessary war simply underscores their own chutzpah, lack of character, and lack of character. This is what Al Gore, a two-bit phony who rakes in millions of dollars from his global warming scam while his own house uses as much energy in a month as most people’s do in a year, had to say in 2004:

He betrayed this country! He played on our fears. He took America on an ill-conceived foreign adventure dangerous to our troops, an adventure preordained and planned before 9/11 ever took place.

Let’s compare this to what Mr. Gore said in 1998, while he was still Bill Clinton’s vice president.

Albert Gore, 16 December 1998: “If you allow someone like Saddam Hussein to get nuclear weapons, ballistic missiles, chemical weapons, biological weapons, how many people is he going to kill with such weapons? He’s already demonstrated a willingness to use these weapons. He poison-gassed his own people. He used poison gas and other weapons of mass destruction against his neighbors. This man has no compunction about killing lots and lots of people.”

In Bernard Cornwell’s Sharpe’s Enemy, Richard Sharpe says of the deserter Obadiah Hakeswill, “A liar, a thief, a rapist, and a murderer. That’s not a man; take it away.” This can be adjusted to fit Al Gore perfectly: “A liar, a phony, a hypocrite, and a fraud. That’s not a man; take it away.” What is truly frightening is that this individual came within a few hundred votes of being elected President, with the aid of illegal Chinese campaign contributions and also 501(c)(3) tax-exempt money from the Million Mom March. We remind Mr. Gore that we had the personal satisfaction of breaking the latter organization’s back earlier that year, so maybe we are personally responsible for him not getting those few hundred votes. We certainly hope so.

Now let us take a look at what Bush’s other detractors, including the Woman Who Would Be Queen (Hillary I, Regina Dei Gratia et Imperatrix Mundi) and Genghis John the Khan Kerry, have to say.

Hillary Rodham Clinton, Floor Speech of 10 October 2002 (from her own Senate Web site): “In the four years since the inspectors left, intelligence reports show that Saddam Hussein has worked to rebuild his chemical and biological weapons stock, his missile delivery capability, and his nuclear program. He has also given aid, comfort, and sanctuary to terrorists, including Al Qaeda members, though there is apparently no evidence of his involvement in the terrible events of September 11, 2001.” http://clinton.senate.gov/speeches/iraq_101002.html

John Kerry, 23 February 1998: “Saddam Hussein has already used these weapons and has made it clear that he has the intent to continue to try, by virtue of his duplicity and secrecy, to continue to do so. That is a threat to the stability of the Middle East. It is a threat with respect to the potential of terrorist activities on a global basis. It is a threat even to regions near but not exactly in the Middle East.”

Thomas Daschle, 1998: a 1998 use-of-force resolution would “send as clear a message as possible that we are going to force, one way or another, diplomatically or militarily, Iraq to comply with international law.” “We have exhausted virtually our diplomatic effort to get the Iraqis to comply with their own agreements and with international law. Given that, what other option is there but to force them to do so?”

Albert Gore, 16 December 1998: “If you allow someone like Saddam Hussein to get nuclear weapons, ballistic missiles, chemical weapons, biological weapons, how many people is he going to kill with such weapons? He’s already demonstrated a willingness to use these weapons. He poison-gassed his own people. He used poison gas and other weapons of mass destruction against his neighbors. This man has no compunction about killing lots and lots of people.”

Tell us again how Bush “betrayed this country,” Al. When we last heard, you and not he took illegal campaign contributions from a hostile foreign power. How much did China pay you and Bill Clinton to betray our country, Al? Is (Chinese) Judas gold why you are supporting greenhouse gas regulations that would encourage manufacturers to move jobs from the United States to China? Are you still on Beijing’s payroll, Al?

Now Chung is having a second moment of infamy, because he has told investigators that he received $300,000 from Liu Chaoying, a top executive at China Aerospace International Holdings (the subsidiary of a huge Chinese satellite-launching outfit), and funneled at least $35,000 of it to the Democratic National Committee. Here’s where it gets sticky: after Chung passed illegal money to the D.N.C., Clinton approved the transfer of commercial satellite-launch technology to China–technology that might have helped China improve the accuracy of its long-range ballistic missiles that threaten the U.S.

In his new book, “Selling Out America,” Kenneth Timmerman follows covert Chinese campaign contributions to the Clinton-Gore re-election campaign and states flatly: “For the first time in American history we had a president of the United States who took money from the head of a foreign intelligence service. In any other era, such behavior would have been called treason. During the Clinton presidency, it was dismissed as just a ‘mistake.’”

Floor Statement of Senator James M. Inhofe, R-Oklahoma (excerpts, full text is at his Web site)

Mr. President, China’s theft of secret data on the so-called “W-88″ nuclear warhead may be one of the most serious breaches of national security in our lifetimes…..More serious than Aldrich Ames. Perhaps more serious than the Rosenbergs. …

Just think…that with the technology that the President has transferred to China and what China has stolen and the President has covered up, China is now capable of producing a 150 kiloton bomb small enough to fit ten of them on top of one missile, each bomb targeted at a different American city with accuracy and reliability. Just extrapolating the numbers, that–in theory–is enough destructive power to kill as many as 7,500,000 Americans–with just one missile.

And, due to this president who stopped our national missile defense effort, we have no defense. We have a president who acts as if he doesn’t care…about us.

So finally, Mr. President, let me repeat the six proven incontrovertible facts:

1. President Clinton hosted over 100 campaign fundraisers in the White House, many with Chinese connections.

2. President Clinton used John Huang, Charlie Trie, Johnny Chung, James Riady, and others with strong Chinese ties to raise campaign money.

3. President Clinton signed waivers to allow his top campaign fundraiser’s aerospace company to transfer U.S. missile guidance technology to China.

4. President Clinton covered up the theft of our most valuable nuclear weapons technology.

5. President Clinton lied to the American people over 130 times about our nation’s security while he knew Chinese missiles were aimed at American children.

6. President Clinton single-handedly stopped the deployment of a national missile defense system, exposing every American life to a missile attack, leaving America with no defense whatsoever against an intercontinental ballistic missile.

Again, it doesn’t matter whether President Clinton did these things for Chinese campaign contributions because the motive for aiding and abetting our adversaries is not important. The fact is President Clinton did it and he knew exactly what he was doing.

I’m not a lawyer, Mr. President, but I have to ask, could President Clinton have been tried for impeachment for the wrong crime?

Why am I here telling the truth about the President? Because no one else will. They know this president will lie with such conviction that the American people will continue to believe him and they don’t want to take the risk.

An opinion piece in the New Australian meanwhile said it quite plainly: “To put it bluntly: President William Jefferson Clinton is guilty of high treason. It’s time Americans woke up to that awful fact.” (Clinton’s guarantee to Beijing, By Peter Zhang, No. 118, 10-16 May 1999)

That’s right, “he betrayed this country,” but “he” refers to Bill Clinton and perhaps Albert Gore, not George W. Bush. This is how we have to answer blatant chutzpah: by denouncing its producers in the most scathing terms possible, and as widely and as publicly as possible.
