How do you know他不甘心?

Well，我不知道，我只是問他甘心嗎？這個問題只有宋先生可以回答。即使是你，也不可能知道答案。

I answered it and expressed my position already.  No need to repeat it.

I believe he doesen't need the title of "President of ROC" to respect himself with dignity.

那他為什麼要選那個沒有聲音，且無權做事的副總統？你不是說他想為人民服務嗎？

First, did you imply that there is an equation: "bidding for vice presidency" is equal to "giving up the dream to serve"?  However, I don't want to get further into this nonsense since it is very clear for a normal people to see how unwise it is to say that equation is true.  

Great! Why James Soong made concession to KMT?  You have your interpretation.  But the general public's belief that he tried to consolidate the Pan-blue forces is a better answer than yours.

Thank you for giving us a good example.  You do have a very unique brain to form your judgement.

On the contrary, James' giving up the dream or idea of "being a president" provides a solid proof enough to make most of us to see he is not a person who puts himself first and insists nobody should go in front of him?  

How about your God? (more next)

Are you telling me that there is nothing for you or your boss to have dignity and stands upright, except the title "President of ROC" ?

Are you telling me that　宋楚瑜選總統只是為了想為人民服務，別人選總統就一定是為了總統的title？Another prejudice ！

As stated above, I did say James want to serve his people.  But that doesn't mean I say all others are for the title?  Did I say that to your Ma?  Where I said that? 

The only clear-cut fact shows that your God Ma did not care what advice or wisdom Lien Tsan gave him.  The fact is that he annouced his bid for 2008 presidency regardless of what can happen to his party.

James has always given the top priority to his people. That's why he created a great Party called "People First Party."

不知道你是不是選擇性記憶，大家都知道，宋並不是因為造福人民，才創立你口中Great的親民黨。他當初離開國民黨，是為了選總統，選戰失敗後，因自今仍未知的原因，沒有回國民黨。既然國民黨回不去，為了安排身邊挺他的政治人物，「只好」成立另一個黨。這種說法有點難聽，但卻是事實。

I don't know who has 選擇性記憶 

Well, that is your fantacy without supporting facts.  Are you telling me that James Soong's dislike of Lee's policy or governorship is NOT the reason he left KMT? 

Immediately after the election, James created "People First Party."  In Politics, it takes time to cook something.  He did it and let me remind you not to forget the term "immediately." 

How can you justify your implied statement that People First Party was created long after the election was over (It took about 4 years after 2000 election to let the fact up to the surface that James has no way to go back "IN" KMT.  And you claim it is a FACT(卻是事實)?

Do you really believe your interpretation acceptable to an average man with reason? A lie, truth, or 選擇性記憶

Going back to something like junk, pacifying with a corrupted man is definitely out of question, not even a "option"

宋先生因興票案被政治迫害，物傷其類，我不認為他會像你一樣，站在民進黨那一邊，認為馬英九是個corrupted man.

Gee!  You are such a genius with eys like a polarized lens.  If not blue, it shall be green.  No way out for an intellectual to be objective.  No way to stay in the middle for general public? 

Trust me, go out of Soap-Trash City to check around what is happening in CDN.  So many bloggers express their "independence" in reviewing Ma's charges even they are used to prefer the Blue.  I am just one of them. I am not sided with DDP. 

To make it clearly, I am always trying to be with the Truth. When the DA accused Ma of "corruption", I will look at the evidence and judge them with my conscience and knowledge.

Okay! I am not a person like you guys.  You guys accused James Soong of 興票案 and damaged his reputation all the time with your full efforts, even he was declared "not guilty" by court. 

I am not like you guys.  Did I have the luxury without limit to talk dirty words against your Ma after he was charged? 

Tell you one thing, I did ask a Mayor of CDN not to attack Ma personally and put his efforts to review our whole system or policy two days ago.  I have high ethnics to know what makes the difference  between a gentleman and a jerk.  Do you have the same when you deal with James?

how about Red China for you to worship, that is the only thing can defeat 民進黨 (TIM), claimed by YST? Is that your last goal? ........and last, but not the least, to make China free ( or independent) from Communism.  

恭喜你已經學會民進黨那套戴帽子的手法，你明知我的意思是指選戰，卻故意把焦點轉向中共。這麼說吧，你的意思是，只有民進黨才能阻止中共赤化台灣，這個帽子怎麼樣？

Who is here trying to 戴帽子 to a honest person as you did in the above paragraph, remembering that you just positively affirmed and accused me of "像你一樣，站在民進黨那一邊"? 

Did I say you are a pro-Red China element? I don't believe you will be royal to Red China.   I know that is out of the question to you before I asked. 

Since I know the right answer, why I ask the question? All I really said (more precisely "asked") is "whoever can defeat 民進黨 is the one you surrender your royalty. Is that your goal?"  I pushed it into an extreme way to mention Red China to shock your minds up, hoping it would be enough for you to realize how wrong it is to say "whoever can defeat 民進黨 is the one I surrender my royalty".  It is absolutely different from your accusation to me:像你一樣，站在民進黨那一邊"

Please understand there is no way for me to accuse someone of something he/she did not commit.

Tell you what my goal is: To survive ROC, To make ROC stronger, To keep two President Chiang's position playing Taiwan's role as a lighthouse to all the Chinese people

兩蔣在台灣已是歷史，再好的歷史也都過去了。台灣早已不是以前的台灣，中共也已不是吳下阿蒙。中國現在已不是共產國家，他比我們還資本主義，不肯認清這個事實，或許你會和台獨基本教義派比較談得來。

Time is changing.  Everything is changing, except the truth.  In certain ways, I can see why you say "中共.........現在已不是共產國家，他比我們還資本主義 . 不肯認清這個事實

But with my professional knowledge on international politics, I see China as "one" country (both sides of Taiwan Strait) and this world as a whole in a knowledgeable way. It is quite different from a layman.  I know the international reality and framwork better than you do. I am not one of the blinds touching the elephant as YST.

14 months ago, DDP's Minister of foreign affair Chen Tan-sun released his "serious" concern over the Vatican diplomatic relationship.  He sound like Vatican would be the next sovereign to cut tie with Taiwan.  I immediately posted an article to express my objection by saying "Vatican will be the last one country to sever diplomatic relationship with ROC in the world," not the first in line.引用文章小丑不自重﹐當然斷交啦﹗ 

Tell you the truth, I firmly believe that under rational situation in the current modern world, there is not going to have a "war" broke out between ROC and Red China in the future.  No chance at all unless there is someone stupid and crazy, Peiod. 

The only one situation can make situation so intense to cause irrationality is that Taiwan is no longer under ROC. Therefore, I have always held a position that I am against Taiwanese Independence Movement with all my hands, feet and heart. 

Probably I am the only one in CDN saying that 我早就說這票彭明敏『台灣主權未定論』的信眾﹐是伊娘的『笨蛋』(引用文章冤有頭﹐債有主﹐話是我說的 ) How can you say "或許你會和台獨基本教義派比較談得來"?

Who is here trying to label others unethnically?

No wonder we are so different! 

Did you say James make you sick before?

Your expression make me understand why you looked down at James.

我的原話應該是這樣：我對他哭泣與下跪的做作行為覺得噁心。No,You don't understand why I look down at 宋，because 你不願意承認，宋楚瑜只是個政客，just like馬。那可能是源自你的「否認」心態。

政客要面對選舉，所以無法不媚俗，我看不順眼宋的某些行為，但那並不表示我就該愛之欲其生，惡之欲其死。每個人都有其陰暗面，just like us.這就是為什麼我提出這個忠告的原因。

I am so sick and tired of your distortion.  But let me remind you that "self-denial" is not 「否認」.  If you translate it into that in Chinese, you don't fully and correctly capture the spirit of the term.

I won't be surprised if you do that to Ma by your logics!

在投票的時候，我從不會感情用事，我想的只是自己的利益。我的目標就是不要民進黨執政，因為他會讓我日子不好過。馬英九再好，如果他的勝算等於零，對不起，我就必須放棄他。但如果馬英九並無讓我看不順眼的行為，我是不會像對宋那樣對馬的，這才是我的邏輯。

如果你無法用中文回應，那請恕我不再回應，因為這樣我會很累，怕誤解你的意思，這也是我無法詳細回答你問題的原因。而且我並不想defeat你，看起來比較像是你想defeat我。

Yes, you are right. You don't have a feeling to vote, let alone love, reason, justice or principle.  The only thing you have in your brain is religion or 棄保.  Right or wrong? Do you know the real essence of what you say? 

My position still remains the same as to saying "I won't be surprised if you do that to Ma by your logics!" because nothing here sufficient to change my observation on you. You went even further to openly confirm my observation about your attitude toward Ma.

引用文章Please answer a question with a crystal answer.

there is nothing for you or your boss to have dignity and stands upright

馬英九不是我的boss，我才是他的boss。如果有更好的人能幫我打敗民進黨(這就是大是大非)，我二話不說立刻fire掉他。

My dear, you missed the point here.

The point for our discussion is: "without the Presidency of ROC, there is no dignity for you or your GOD ? (okay, let me change the word "boss."  Ma is not your boss.  You are his boss.  But since so many people call you guys as the "God of Ma" gang in CDN. Is it a fact to someone or isn't?)

Give me a break!  Nobody has his dignity if he is not a President of ROC? Does it make sense?

Since you said: "打敗民進黨(這就是大是大非)", how about Red China for you to worship, that is the only thing can defeat 民進黨 (TIM), claimed by YST? Is that your last goal?

Tell you what my goal is: To survive ROC, To make ROC stronger, To keep two President Chiang's position playing Taiwan's role as a lighthouse to all the Chinese people and last, but not the least, to make China free ( or independent) from Communism.   That's my大是大非.  No wonder we are so different! 

If you really mean James is nothing of weight to the outcome of game or to your master's fate,why you "advise" which side James shall take?

馬英九的困境，只有國民黨可以幫他，因為國民黨需要他。宋楚瑜的名譽，也只有他自己可以幫自己，就看他在不在乎原來支持他的那四百多萬選民。

現階段我是支持馬英九，就像我兩千年支持宋楚瑜一樣。在我心目中，他們都不是greatest statesman。所以，我不會跟你爭論誰比較偉大。如果宋堅持走原定的路，從此退出政治，就表示他已經接受歷史對他的評價。

My dear, you missed the point again!

The point here is Why you "advise" him if you treat James as a dirt or someone of no importance or with no dignity.  Did you say James make you sick before? Is it a Fact, isn't it?

I didn't mention all the bullshits mentioned in your reply.  Who needs a help? Who is a stateman or not?  Who is greater between Ma and Soong?  I do not have a word to touch those stupid topics.  To what I wrote, those gossip or presentation are simply irrelevant.  All I said is that your article is a typical thinking at "self-denial" mentality. 

Don't tell me I had never been there.  I did go through it in 1989 when I faced 3 crisis combined at the same time: "divorce", "unemployed" and "house is under foreclosure".  I have a vivid memory for how I reacted to the crisis when I was in that stage of "self-denial" situation. So I can easily recognize it and just want to point it out to you and "advise" you getting out of it. That's my intention to write my article in response to your article.  No tricks. Only concern or sympathy in it.

I do care about my James Soong, but he doesn't need my giving of care.  He earned it from my heart.  If you are able now to speak out something like you would kick Ma out if you could find someone to count on as a victor to defeat the Green. Your expression make me understand why you looked down at James.

Hope you won't treat Ma as you did to James someday in one year.  But I won't be surprised if you do that to Ma by your logics!

p.s. Even Amy Tsai didn't answer my questin.  She did bring one issue for us to seriously consider and  I may discuss it later ( I highlight it in orange as follows).  But for now, it is irrelevant to our discussion.

Amy said, 馬英九不是我的boss，我才是他的boss。如果有更好的人能幫我打敗民進黨(這就是大是大非)，我二話不說立刻fire掉他 (Very interesting point and a very good release of Amy's mindset)。
