As the earlier poster noted,<BR/><BR/>"please, if you're going to make an argument, make a substantive one."<BR/><BR/>But then, as we've repeatedly seen, you're not capable of it. All you can do is whine that I want everything to be like the Taipei Times, which is a nutjob comment.<BR/><BR/><BR/>"Let's see how tolerant you are against dissenting views..."<BR/><BR/>The idea that the anti-democracy side is engaged in dissent is frankly, laughable.Michael Turtonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17974403961870976346noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10698887.post-33359475024161660262007-06-25T00:51:00.000+08:002007-06-25T00:51:00.000+08:00Nobody forces you to read or reply to my comments....Nobody forces you to read or reply to my comments. I simply rebut your whining about journalists allegedly doing 'injustice to Taiwan'. Have you stopped crying already? You want everyone to adopt the Taipei Times style of reporting, but that is not going to happen. Live with it! I will keep commenting whenever I feel you are being nonsensical. Let's see how tolerant you are against dissenting views...JZhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10212825239568291402noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10698887.post-18481198573349293342007-06-24T20:41:00.000+08:002007-06-24T20:41:00.000+08:00No Zy, you haven't touched a nerve.

It is funny how you speak of truth and lament reporters for allegedly reporting false stories when they do not adhere to the TI view. You just stick to your TI cocoon for now until the 'truth' catches up on you.<BR/><BR/>By the way, I do not serve authority. I just reject TI with all my heart, just like million others do out of their free will. This is something you do not understand: for every TI supporter, there are 100 people against it.JZhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10212825239568291402noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10698887.post-66478750300324172007-06-24T17:35:00.000+08:002007-06-24T17:35:00.000+08:00No, zyzyx.

As long as newspaper reporters show fidelity to truth, they'll get no argument from me.<BR/><BR/>Now, unless you have something intelligent to say, why don't you go comment somewhere else and quit wasting everyone's time. I understand why people want to have authority, and I understand why people fight authority. But I will never understand the kind of mind that wants to serve authority.<BR/><BR/>MichaelMichael Turtonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17974403961870976346noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10698887.post-10933318175352277392007-06-24T17:29:00.000+08:002007-06-24T17:29:00.000+08:00Michael wants the International Press to parrot th...Michael wants the International Press to parrot the Taipei Times by promoting Taiwan independence, just like you. That is fortunately not going to happen. Well, OK, it happens, but not all the time.
