There was very little news coverage on the raising of the Communist flag just across from our White House in Washington, D.C., on Sept. 20th. I am sure if it was a Confederate flag, it would be all over the news and we would hear an outcry of hate.

At this event, there were hundreds of Chinese celebrating the 60th anniversary for their communist regime. This is an outrage! The communist leaders of Mao's China were called the "Butchers of Beijing." Since seizing control in 1949, they have murdered from 50 million to 70 million people. This is the first time that a communist flag has been raised in Washington, D.C.

William Gheen, chief of American Legal Immigration stated, "our concern is that sovereign wealth funds, like the Chinese, now control the executive branch more than the American people." China is not our friend. China is our enemy. Our enemy is coming and raising their flag in a type of proclamation.

According to a Washington Times report (July 28, 2008), U.S. economists believe that China holds nearly $1.2 trillion in U.S. securities, mostly treasuries and corporate bonds. It appears that we have been sold out to communism! As Vladimir Lenin said, America would fall like an overripe piece of fruit into the hands of communism.
