"Blame" Harry Woo [a big contributor to Public Citizen] and his sponsor Jeff
Fiedler, who, I think, is still at United Food and Commercial Workers [he
used
to be in the AFL_CIO's corporate affairs dept]. Fiedlers' a rabid China
basher
and, according to some union organizers I know in King County, CIA. Just
plug
his name in google.
The name is Harry Wu. I know it is a terrible disappointment to folks who
went defend the 'socialist' motherland of PRC that Chinese dissidents such as
Wu and the Tianamen student leader exiles supported the AFL-CIO position on
China's entry into the WTO, since it makes it just a little difficult to
present it as the latest version of the 'yellow peril,' but then again, facts
are difficult things.

Power concedes nothing without a demand.
It never has, and it never will.
If there is no struggle, there is no progress.
Those who profess to favor freedom, and yet deprecate agitation are men who
want crops without plowing the ground. They want rain without thunder and
lightning. They want the ocean without the awful roar of its waters.
