Judy has a couple of posts up describing Ken Livingstone's latest apologetics for Communist China: Ken Livingstone, propagandist for China and The ultimate "Nobody's Perfect" line:
Now we have Ken Livingstone in China giving his opinions of the Tiananmen Square massacre of 1989. Ken sees them as having parallels in .... the Poll Tax riots in Trafalgar Square in 1990.
"In the same way that Trafalgar Square has had an interesting history, not always a peaceful one, there's a very clear parallel," he said.
"We've had some interesting riots in Trafalgar Square - I mean, only 20 years ago, the poll tax riots, and flames licking up."...
It never ceases to amaze -- the Left's stunning apologetics for totalitarianism compared to its ferocious condemnation and microscopic examination of all things Western and particularly American.
