We should subject China to an Olympic boycott
By Sam Leith
Last Updated: 12:01am BST 05/04/2008s
Vladimir Lenin framed the fundamental question in politics as Kto
kovo?, or in English "Who whom?" It is a question that frames
political power in grammar. Who is nominative, and whom is accusative;
who is subject and whom is object; who controls the verb and whom gets
the verb in the jacksie.
It was stylishly - albeit ungrammatically - restated by Aretha
Franklin in the title of her 1985 album Who's Zoomin' Who?
And it has found new expression in China with the summary jailing for
three and a half years of the 34-year-old human rights activist Hu
Jia. Hu whom? Given that the Chinese leader shares a surname with the
dissident, we could even recast Aretha: Hu's zoomin' Hu.

Well, what do you know? Wacky Wrong came out from his hiding in a
cave to respond. Maybe the CIA gives him extra money to do this.

No, Wacky Wrong does not deserve any smile, but a whipping. He's a
CIA running dog doing all CIA's dirty work.

Take him out to the nearest tree and hang him.
