MEDIA: A melancholy article in the IHT about Andrew Hsia, our shadow ambassador to the UN, taking leave of that post and going to India. Brian David Phillips points to a NY High School where you can't discuss the Iraq war.Feiren has another post in Rank's series on Great Taiwan bike rides. Feiren also has a great review Taiwan Matters of just how bad a pick Vincent Siew is as Ma's running mate. I think Hsieh's chances of winning have gone up. Scott has another post on native speaker teachers: are we really better? David goes to the Taipei Artist Village. The Cogitator says Daoism is dumb. And that from a guy who believes in the Holy Trinity. Islaformosa blogs on the joys of scooter driving. Or not. UPDATE: Sorry! That's an old article. Here's the new one. Media Diary reviews Kan Hai de Rizi. Jon Benda has an interesting use for one of my posts. Technology has made obsolete the ban on Presidential travel. Patrick Cowsill blogs on colonialism and settlement in the Yilan area. Sponge Bear has great pics up from his trip to Japan.

Whenever DPP assumed it's going to have an election easily won, it lost mesirably. It would be a failure if DPP does not win and win by an unquestionable margin in 2008.
I love it when my country makes strong correct decisions!
The UN issue is 110% ELECTION PLOY!
The DPP does not have 50% of votes, they need every possible trickery imployed - and the UN issue is not going to happen!
