Smith (R-NJ) on Washington Journal now re human rights hearing on China

[Skidmore]

Concerned primarily about the persecution of religion in China and political dissenters. Fair enough. I wonder if the congressman is equally concerned enough about violations of human rights by our own government to hold hearings as well.

1. it's only a violation if Christians are persecuted

those other religions aren't persecuted. :sarcasm:

2. he talked of China's one child policy. and while china has many problems

with this law (women killing themselves. forced abortions etc)---Smith just wants China to abolish birth contol period.
