« Slick Hillary | Main | TACIR Overstates Tennessee's Infrastructure Needs » November 2, 2007Gov. Bredesen Ignores the Sad Truths About ChinaKnoxville News Sentinel columnist Greg Johnson says Gov. Phil Bredesen's gushing about China glosses over the real - and horrifying - truths about that country. The real scandal of the Chinese toys being recalled for lead paint isn't that they have lead paint, but that they are made by virtual slave labor in a country where people lack the basic freedoms of speech, religion and assembly that we enjoy. For his part, Bredesen admits he chose not to raise those issues on his trip. Posted in Tennessee Government News
