...could say Chrysler has the red, white and blues. Despite spending nine years under German ownership, Chrysler remains the most American-focused of Detroit's Big Three automakers. The company - which was sold in August by Germany's Daimler to the private equity firm Cerberus for $7.4 billion - is more dependent upon the U.S. market than either General Motors or Ford. Only 8% of Chrysler cars are sold outside North America. While, in decades past, that may have been a sensible strategy, this concentration is increasingly a liability as U.S. market growth has slowed, and competition from imports is revving...
...reason for Harvard’s negligence is woven deep into the composition of its student body. Over the course of the last century, pathogens have polluted our ranks, harboring dangerous loyalties to countries that could hypothetically be our enemies, countries like red China, yellow France, and multi-coloured Canada. They’ve been indulged by pinko leftist faculty, who spout drivel about “global citizenship” and “internationalism.” They are international students, and if this university is to reclaim its proper place atop American society, they must be purged...

After being removed from River House dorm rooms before the start of the school year, the red phones that used to be standard issue for all college students are set to make a comeback. Harvard officials cited safety concerns as the reason for reversing their decision yesterday, with the news coming to students as part of an e-mail circulated by Dean of the College David Pilbeam to the undergraduate community outlining emergency communication measures. “We think this is the right way to go,” said Associate Dean for Residential Life Suzy M. Nelson...
...Wang, who once created propaganda for the Chinese communist party before moving to Canada in 1989, describes his first film, “Sunrise Over Tiananmen Square,” as autobiographical, illustrating the evolution of his views away from what he refers to as “the Red Dream.” Wang says that the film was not released in China because of its short form. But he also speculates that its depiction of political clashes, the opium war, and the 1989 student massacre at Tiananmen Square made it too controversial for the Chinese government?...
