1. "At the Chinese Foreign Ministrys regular press conference last week, spokesperson Liu Weimins revealed that Chinese Premier Wen Jiabao was awarded the Best Friend of American Worker by the US International Longshoremens Association. The Chinese ambassador to the United States reportedly received the award on his behalf. Liu explained:
2. 'The award presented by the US International Longshoremens Association to Premier Wen Jiabao is to thank the Chinese Government for its efforts to encourage Chinese enterprises investment in the US and to promote bilateral economic cooperation and trade. This gratitude is sincere and heartfelt. Premier Wen Jiabao visited the Port of Boston during his visit to the US in 2003.'
3. The International Longshoremens Association, an AFL-CIO affiliate, has not publicized the award.
4. The Chinese-government-backed China Daily, however, in an anti-GOP article, reported on the award and recognized the diplomatic relationship between the union and the Chinese government:
5. When Republican presidential candidate Mitt Romney attacked Chinas trade practices recently, he probably didnt expect that the Chinese premier he met in 2003 when Romney praised trade between the two countries would later be granted the Best Friend of American Worker award.
6. On Tuesday, the AFL-CIO, of which the Longshoremen Association is an affiliate, endorsed President Obama for reelection.
Unions plan to spend $400 million in the upcoming campaign season, according to the New York Times."

Hilarious! There have to be 70 million murdered Chinese rolling in the aisles! What a knee-slapper.
Beck revealed last week that Dunn idolizes Mao, the brutal Communist dictator of China responsible for the slaughter of tens of millions of innocent victims."
