Taiwan: Another March Against Ma

Half a million unhappy Taiwanese gathered in Taipei over the weekend in a new protest march against Ma.

The New York Times reports that protesters carried placards reading "Defend Taiwan!" True dat. The story quotes one protester as saying: "The government has not done enough to protect our own interests when opening up to China." Speak on, sweet lips that never told a lie!

You will remember the massive rally back in August.

View from Taiwan has more. Ma, slogging along with a miserable approval rating of 24%, is feeling the heat . . . and, frankly, he should.

Why do the Taiwanese hate their mothers so much? Mothers are important! They bring us into the world, they raise us, they sacrifice for us ... Are Taiwanese mothers different? Higher nagging-to-benefit ratio? What gives?
