That's always amused me.

NF and Kevin,
As one who spent a lot of time opposing MFN status for Peking's oppressors in the 1980's and 1990's, it is no laughing matter to me. Some supported MFN for the best of reasons, it's a shame their hopes were shown to be misplaced. It's just a fact that Communists can only lose power through revolution and/or a firing squad. But this topic is going way off track, and so I am withdrawing from the discussion. Thank you.
