No, i'm not mad that you used to word "communist", i just get the feeling that you feel they are lower than you, and beneath you, which aggravates me. In England, Manchester, it is slang to say "everytime", i didn't mean it literally.

You obviously made a huge deal out of China (which, is a communist country by the way) being communist as you felt the need to point it out to everybody that China (communist, if you didn't know) is a communist country, and what does that actually do?

Or was it just flame-bait aimed at the French, to get your fellow countrymen wound up that the French deal with "red commies".

I don't mind you using the word "communist", i'm not one, don't support their ideologies and believe it is impossible for a Communist country to fully work properly, but I don't like it when you feel the need to point and (what seems to me) laugh at a country because it's not "the norm".

Now if I misunderstood your post then so be it, but if you can show me what you meant to achieve by posting (communist) after saying "China" then please, tell me.

It might be because both Tiawan and mainland China both claim to be the real "China."

there's your whole problem....you freaking assume way to much....get a grip...you took somethign I posted as a political FACT..and drew all sorts of implications from it....get a grip man.

after all, you know me well enough....if I want to laff at something..I will do it out loud....not thru implication.

I dont see how the posting of a fact gets into all this implications, lol.

ok, let me get this right..I am supposed to explain and justify everythign I say...to you??? How is it that I am answering to you all of a sudden????

you need to quit drinking all those sugary drinks...I think youre getting a head rush or something.

China has OPENLY stated that if Taiwan tries to break away that it WILL start WW3.

It's only a World War if we get involved Our Pres and VP are rarely in the same place at once, makes them hard to kill at the same time.

well, the implication is that China KNOWS that America is bound to assist and protect Taiwan...so they know that if they invade or bomb Taiwan etc...that it would be about the same as bombing the USA.

----------------

I see that the election was won by less than 30000 votes out of 13 million or so.....Chen (the incumbant who just got shot, lol) won...the other dude is asking for a recount. Thats sort of too bad cuz it shows a nation that is almost perfectly divided...like America in 2000.

http://www.cnn.com/2004/WORLD/asiapc...ons/index.html

Maybe they will say Chen stole this too??

But being equally divided like that just leaves the door open for further issues.
