If "Ching Chong" Sends Democrats into a Tailspin, Does Communism Make Them Smile?

Over the weekend, AP stories conveying the supposed outrage Asian-Americans felt toward Rush Limbaugh’s mockery of Chinese president Hu Jintao were ubiquitous. The stories were so racially charged and unapologetically one-sided that it was evident someone somewhere was either not telling the whole truth about what Limbaugh said or was not telling the truth about why he said what he said (or that their liberal minds simply couldn’t comprehend the crux of what Limbaugh was trying to accomplish).

As I looked deeper into the AP’s contention about Asian-American outrage toward Limbaugh, I quickly saw that all the news stories rested on the complaints of three different politicians, all of whom happened to be Democrats: an important point which was not brought to the forefront in the coverage. (I guess a headline of “Democrats Outraged at Limbaugh for the 1,000,000th Time” doesn’t draw near as many readers as “Asian-American Politicians Demand Limbaugh Apology.”)

The three politicians upon whom the demands of the AP stories rest are Representative Rep. Judy Chu (D-CA), Representative David Wu (D-Or), and California state Senator Leland Yee (D-San Francisco). All three are quoted as feeling various degrees of disgust with the way Limbaugh mocked the Chinese president’s White House speech last week. Chu said she was “shocked and appalled,” Wu believed Limbaugh demonstrated a “fundamental lack of character,” and Yee called it a “classless act [that] is an insult to over 3,000 years of cultural history.” (There was no mention as to whether these same three lawmakers have been bothered by China’s blatant Human Rights’ violations, evident in China’s ongoing persecution of Christians and their forced abortion/one child policy, or the steadfast Communist mindset that robs their citizens of freedom in a myriad of cruel and unimaginable ways.)

Instead, all we learn from the AP news is that three Asian-American politicians, who just so happen to be Democrats, are outraged over the fact that Limbaugh took time out of his January 19th show to translate a portion of Chinese president Hu Jintao’s White House speech thus: “ching chong, ching chong chong, cha.” (FYI: Democrats have yet to offer an alternative translation.)

Perhaps the best thing that can come of this is that someone might sit down with San Francisco’s Representative Yee and explain to him that Limbaugh was not insulting 3,000 years of Chinese cultural history. Rather, he was mocking the fifty-two year old history of the People’s Republic of China: a despotism by any measure which cost 45 million Chinese citizens their lives via starvation during the years that the murderous Mao Tse-Tung spent conducting his “Cultural Revolution” (which literally undid, rather than just insulted, 3,000 years of Chinese cultural history).

Hu Jintao carries on the “proud” tradition of Mao Tse-Tung and the real shame is not that Limbaugh translated the speech phonically, but that Democrats continue to defend Communist thugs and dictators.

Limbaugh has successfully outsmarted the CHICOMS and their sympathizers once more.
