Today the Chinese government criticized Secretary of State Hillary Clinton’s call for China and other countries to stop censoring web content, including Google searches.
Those restrictions have prompted Google to threaten to pull out of China.
China’s Foreign Ministry has urged the U.S. to “respect facts and stop using so-called freedom of the internet to make unjustified accusations against China.”
Did Hillary Clinton do the right thing by publicly criticizing China for censoring Google and other web content?

Kerry Masterson Says:
It will take a generation for the freedoms we enjoy in America to be enjoyed in China. Until, then, actions like H. Clintons are exactly what need to be done to effect that change. I respect that China has its ways, but, we are trying to slowly move forward to bring a little more freedom to your country. Your welcome to help us if you can do so without being arrested.
