“Celebrating Communist Chinese Anniversary 'repugnant'”
by OneNewsNow - - Chad Groening   
September 18th, 2009

A pastor, radio commentator, and former presidential candidate says he's outraged that the government of the United States would do anything to commemorate Sunday's 60th anniversary of the communist takeover in China.

The upcoming event has been mired in controversy. In July, the state-run China Daily reported that the Chinese flag would fly over the south lawn of the White House, which is considered to be the highest of honors. But the White House has denied that report, saying that the flag will instead fly over the lawn of the Ellipse, the public area adjacent to the president's residence.
 
Chuck Baldwin, who was the 2008 Constitution Party candidate for president, has written several columns on the upcoming 60th anniversary of the communist regime. He does not believe the United States should be flying the Chinese flag, even on the Ellipse.
 
"The fact that they would want to fly the communist Chinese flag anywhere in Washington, DC, is absolutely repugnant. I find it repugnant that we have people in this government who apparently find no problem with celebrating the anniversary of an event that led to the slaughter of upwards of 70 million Chinese people."
 
Baldwin says this regime has been an enemy of the United States since its inception, so the fact that the U.S. government would honor it in any fashion is more than disgusting.
