USA Busted Trying to Bug China's Presidential 767

morcheeba writes "A new Boeing 767-300ER was refitted to become China's presidental aircraft. What goes into a plane like this? Besides the bedroom, sitting room, bath with a shower, there was a 48" TV, satellite communications, anti-missile defense systems and advanced avionics. And oh yeah, numerous high-tech listening devices. Wonder how those got in. Read the article at washingtonpost.com." CD: The question is, what was the bug in the headboard for?

    China doesn't give Communism a bad name, Communism gives Communism a bad name. Can you name a single Communist nation that you would hold up as a shining beacon to the rest of the world?

    Now, a certain degree of socialism, on the other hand... I'm down with that.

    . . . And I'm sure you'd react the exact same way if a Chinese plane was caught "in international waters" a few miles off of the coast of California and an American plane went down when it just "got too close," right?

    No, you and the rest of the fucktard "patriots" in the U.S. would be calling for nuking China.

    Uh, news flash, you are hypocrytical crybabies. And the world already knows it, so, too late. :/
