...Even if Ma overcomes Hsieh and wins the presidency, he could face serious hurdles in realizing his vision of improved cross-strait relations. Much of his success will depend on the attitude of Beijing. On the surface, the interests of Ma and Hu Jintao appear to be dovetailing. Under Hu, whom Ma compliments as "sophisticated," China has dramatically softened its stance toward Taipei, and Hu these days sounds ready to compromise. In his speech opening the Chinese People's Political Consultative Congress in early March, Hu reiterated his offer to sign a peace treaty. "Status in negotiations would be equal...
...Clintons’ (kind of) good name; such is the nature of bruising national politics. However, when we as unbiased political observers say that Geraldine Ferraro seems a hypocrite and a bigot in making these conspiratorial accusations about not one black politician, but all of them, we would appear to be justified by factual evidence. After all, these men confront the same sort of barrier to entry that she came upon two decades ago. One could argue that theirs is even higher...

These animals don’t appear on the Animal Planet Channel, nor does the media monitor their individual plights. Masson notes that while his two books on highly popularized animals—When Elephants Weep and Dogs Never Lie about Love —quickly sold over a million copies, it was a harder task to market...
...using gross fluids and substances to pose as innards, but there is really no way to know as the video is so visually bizarre that it’s difficult to think about its message. As Santogold walks down the street we see images of a woman who appears to be vomiting green slime (which is really coming from tubes hooked over her ears) and two men that appear to be pulling links of cucumbers out of a man’s body cavity. Perhaps Santogold is using this video to outline the dangers of being an artist, or perhaps...
