It states: “The National Anthem must be played prior to every NFL game, and all players must be on the sideline for the National Anthem. “During the National Anthem, players on the field and bench area should stand at attention, face the flag, hold helmets in their left hand, and refrain from talking. The home team should ensure that the American flag is in good condition. It should be pointed out to players and coaches that we continue to be judged by the public in this area of respect for the flag and our country. Failure to be on the field by the start of the National Anthem may result in discipline, such as fines, suspensions, and/or the forfeiture of draft choice(s) for violations of the above, including first offenses.”

The other proteins and formaldehyde serve to activate the immune system and open up the blood-brain barrier. This is NOT a good thing."

Biden: I won’t ‘second-guess’ China’s one-child policy

In remarks before a Chinese audience Sunday, Vice President Joe Biden said he would not “second-guess” China’s coercive population control policy, although he said the scheme was not economically sustainable.

Biden noted that Chinese officials “share a similar concern” with American leaders in terms of a shaky economic outlook.

“You have no safety net.  Your policy has been one which I fully understand - I’m not second-guessing - of one child per family,” said Biden.

“The result being that you’re in a position where one wage earner will be taking care of four retired people.  Not sustainable.”

The implementation of China’s one-child policy is notoriously brutal – with women routinely forced to undergo abortions and sterilizations, or handed crippling fines and other punishments for “illegal pregnancies.” Human rights activists say as many as 35,000 abortions are performed in China each day, nearly ten times the rate of the United States.

Reggie Littlejohn, president of Human Rights Without Frontiers, agreed with Biden’s economic outlook but said his dismissal turned a blind eye to “terrible human suffering.”

“Does he ‘fully understand’ that China’s One Child Policy causes more violence to women and girls than any other official policy on earth?” said Littlejohn in an email to LifeSiteNews.com. “Chinese women are literally dragged out of their homes, strapped to tables and forced to abort.”

The vice president’s visit is aimed to assuage fears over America’s downgraded credit rating in a Communist country that possesses $1.2 trillion in U.S. Treasury holdings.

Population Expert Briefed Biden on China’s Inhumane One-Child Policy


The recent news reports about Vice President Joe Biden not “second-guessing” China’s one-child policy were a surprise to Steven Mosher, president of the Population Research Institute (PRI), who had numerous discussions with then-Senator Biden on the topic when both men were working on establishing Free Radio Asia in the early 1990s.

“When [Biden] says he totally understands the one-child policy, I take him at his word,” Mosher told CNSNews.com, adding that he had briefed Biden at length about how the policy led to forced abortions and sterilizations.

“He does” understand the gravity of China’s policy, Mosher said. “I told him so.”

Biden made the “second-guessing” remarks during his just-completed trip to China in a speech at Sichuan University on Aug. 21, sparking criticism from Republicans and others.

“Your policy has been one which I fully understand -- I’m not second-guessing -- of one child per family,” Biden said, adding that asking one-wage earner to support an entire family was “not sustainable.”

But Mosher said Biden’s remarks seemed to send a different message.

“When he says he’s not going to second-guess it, that’s bizarre because it has been a consistent policy of the United States since the Reagan administration to deplore and condemn the violations of human rights of the one-child policy,” Mosher said.

The discussions between Mosher and Biden took place in 1991 and 1992 when Mosher was serving on a congressional commission to study the idea of Radio Free Asia, in part as a response to the Tiananmen Square massacre of hundreds of pro-democracy protesters by Communist Chinese authorities in 1989.

At that time, Biden was a senior member of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee, which heard testimony from the commission following the report it released on the proposed radio project. And Biden introduced legislation in 1992 to create Radio Free Asia, which was authorized by Congress and established in 1996.
