"No, I'm not a dictator. HE'S a dictator!!!"
This is beautiful.
In the ultimate, geopolitical example of the pot calling the kettle black, the Chinese government has issued a report rating the human rights record of the United States. Needless to say, it's a litany of every societal ill in this country, from overcrowded prisons to the preponderance of sexual assault to the proliferation of gun violence.
I love how George W. Bush has managed to bring out the "inner cowboy" in all the rest of the world's heads of state. The new Chinese president, Hu Jintao, might actually start thinking he's running a superpower.
