excerpt from today's speech about china - all over the press


I have spoken clearly, candidly, and consistently with China's leaders about our deep concerns over religious freedom and human rights. And I have met repeatedly with Chinese dissidents and religious believers. The United States believes the people of China deserve the fundamental liberty that is the natural right of all human beings.

A joke? Maybe--but not a funny one. Hearing him talk about security is funnier. He ain't about that either.

But nothing but nothing oozes irony more than Cheney wrapping himself in the flag. Wonder if when he goes to Dubai to avoid the Hague he'll wrap himself in their flag?

That's the problem-- he's proven that the word Liberty, to him, is just a word.

Once again, a natural right reduced beyond even the ideal. The molecule of DnA was not known by our founding fathers. To them, even the endeavor of narrowed study itself was known more as "natural philosophy" than "science." Our founding fathers were ignorant of the cognizant sciences. They weren't aware that the heart was a pump that moved the blood. Washington was bled to death by excessive bleedings performed by a doctor.
So, a natural right doesn't narrow down to the human conscience but to the soul. A natural right was that one thing we all had common in our souls. The soul of a king and the soul of the least peasant had the same natural rights. For a king to violate the natural rights of a peasant meant that he was violating his own soul -- his conscience. This gave our founding fathers the right to deem the authority of the king as tyranny.
So, Bush doesn't need to be spreading an American agenda whatever that strange thing might be. The American agenda exists as the conscience of every human soul. They know better.
