Ruebacca: I have Jung Chang’s biography of Mao on the shelf a few feet from my desk. I would make it assigned reading on college campuses so everyone would realize what a monster the man was.

It’s very funny to read the howls of the leftists here, who are very critical of US “warmongering” and love bambi for wanting a world without nukes. Dunn hero had no problems starving his own people to build China’s bomb:

The cost of China’s bomb has been estimated at US$4.1 billion. This amount could have brought enough wheat to provide an extra calories per day for two years for the entire population – enough to save the lives of every single one of the nearly 38 million people who died in the famine. Mao’s Bomb caused 100 times as many deaths as both the bombs the Americans dropped on Japan.

Moronic PJM trolls: “Oh, but Mao wasn’t as bad as Limbaugh and Beck!”

Pretentious PJM troll “Well, who cares how many millions he murdered? His Mandarin was quite eleqant.”
