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.
Yep. The Communists are in the White House. Unbelievable!

Bo's hizzle. Fo' shizzle.
Will there be any Korean War veterans demonstrating at the White
House?
Former members of the 1st. Marine Div. and the Chosin Few should be
leading the charge.
Will the Marine Honor Guards at the White House be wearing black arm
bands?
