and since Lee is based in D.C., he was passing on info that had been told to him.

Whether this info was exactly as has been discovered or not, there is that video in this and other threads that distinguishes the plant in China from the IL plant where there WAS a Chinese flag - shown by a fence at street level (NOT the same one from that Chinese plant) - that was supposedly up while the Chinese workers who were visiting to be trained, were there.

Your whole post and response is ass-hattery to the max considering the point is to get info out there about yet another plant closing thanks to Bain chicanery and how Rmoney will ultimately profit from it. This thing obsessing over a fucking flag is bullshit. It's the workers and the Bain connection that is important.

So just fucking chill.

Not only did they insult Americans on American soil by putting the Chinese flag up, ywcachieve Oct 2012 #1
