Watching TV is like dating. Do it long enough and you hook up with people you could swear you have already encountered, somewhere in your hazy, regret-filled past.

...part of a diplomatic deal. Although I have physically escaped totalitarianism’s shadow, China’s new leadership continues to stall political reform, and I have the moral responsibility to continue devoting myself to promoting democratic reform.
