Eight Honors and Eight Shames →
This is why China will ultimately beat us unless we really start reflecting. In this country we’re busy fighting over nonsense.
Translation of Hu’s Socialist Concepts on Honours and Disgraces:
Love the country; do it no harm.
Serve the people; never betray them.
Follow science; discard superstition.
Be diligent; not indolent.
Be united, help each other; make no gains at...

OReilly (pompous voice): "Alright Morris, what's your take on this?"
Morris (weasly whiny voice): "Bill, it's obvious what's happening. CNN is losing massively views and ratings are down.."
