A Good Example of Why I Don't Like Chen Shui-bian « China/Taiwan »

He can be counted on to instinctively do what is good for his own political fortunes, to the detriment of Taiwan's long-term good.

It is similar to how many DPP supporters get confused and equate sovereignty/independence with democracy, so that even when Chen does anti-democratic things or hypocritical actions regarding democracy/popular opinion (like saying he has no choice but follow the will of the 1,000,000 people who sign a petition for a referendum, but dismissing the will of the 1,000,000 people who wanted him to resign), they defend him in the name of "democracy".

Instead, Chen Shui-bian and Taiwan's diplomatic corps should be pushing the justifications for why more countries should unofficially support Taiwan in the same manner US and Japan do. Instead, Chen pushes for official recognition, and just burns bridges.

Idiot. Politically savvy and an expert at taking care of himself. But greedy, manipulative, corrupt, too concerned with his own legacy, and an idiot when it comes to Taiwan's long-term sovereignty needs. In that, he reminds me of former US President Clinton.

Hey! Do you know if they make any plugins to assist with Search Engine Optimization? I'm trying to get my blog to rank for some targeted keywords but I'm not seeing very good results. If you know of any please share. Kudos!
