Who is Soong trying to kid? - TW
People First Party (PFP) Chairman James Soong (???) is the last person in Taiwan who should be lecturing anybody on democracy. The White Terror's former gestapo chief is a fountain of misinformation.

Soong's real complaint is that he isn't the leader of Taiwan after he and Chinese Nationalist Party (KMT) Chairman Lien Chan (??) were squarely, fairly, and soundly defeated in the presidential election last year. Therefore the two of them and their parties continue to thwart any real political or constitutional reform or legislative action and in fact do their best to cripple Taiwan both politically and economically in an effort to destabilize the current administration.

If Soong and Lien were to follow democratic traditions, they should both have resigned the leadership of their party when they were beaten in national elections the first time back in 2000. The KMT and the PFP need to put their democratic houses in order before coming out and lecturing on democracy.
