And it’s not going to be easy because I am absolutely addicted to MSNBC (an NBC affiliate) for political coverage. But so help me God, NBC, CNBC, MSNBC, and any other part of that Beijing Olympics broadcasting coven will not play in my home during the games.

In addition to its myriad and well publicized human rights abuses, there’s this allegation of pure, unadulterated evil:

Book Reveals Fetal Soup Served in Chinese Restaurants

[..]  “New macabre manifestations of this conscienceless abortion mentality include the recent opening of five restaurants in the region of X, which began serving ‘fetal soup’ at the price of 300 Yuan (approximately $40) a bowl! Recent medical publications have praised the exceptional health benefits for the consuming of ‘fetal remains’ (this jargon allows them to overlook what this really is-unborn baby bodies). Therefore, local entrepreneurs jumped on the opportunity to distribute this new health breakthrough to the chosen few who could afford the price. So evil and scandalous is this fetal soup trade that the Government shut down the Web sites advertising the restaurants, in fear that they would scandalize the reputation of the People’s Republic to outside countries and businesses.

The book is The Seven Sorrows of China by Dr. Mark Miravalle (Professor of Mariology at Franciscan University). You can read the entire article (excerpted above) here.
