Sept 20
By Hou Lei (chinadaily.com.cn)

The national flag of the People's Republic of China (PRC) will be hoisted at the South Lawn of the White House in Washington on September 20, media reported Sunday.

Chinese associations in the United States had applied to hold a ceremony in front of the US President’s residence to celebrate the 60th anniversary of the founding of PRC.

Chen Ronghua, chairman of Fujian Association of the United States, told reporters that their application was approved not only because of the sound Sino-US relations but also because China is a responsible country.

"Many Americans admire China due to the success of last year’s Beijing Olympics," said Chen.

More than 1,000 people will attend the ceremony and the performances held after it, according to Zhao Luqun, who will direct the performances.

Zhao said the performances will demonstrate the friendship, magnanimous spirit and kindness of modern Chinese people.

Maybe not from the Onion, but sure as hell from Bizzarro World.

Propaganda for the Freedom Haters is good for barack.

I really think a couple of kids from DU are running barack's administration - they have no idea about perception.

And we "respect" china because of the ****ing shame olympics they had?????

We respect China because they buy that respect - and the "full faith and credit of the US Gubmint" at a substantial interest rate.

I'd rather see it be a "Frog March" right to the firing squad. Why THE **** did I spend twenty years fighting communism ??
