美國官方回函確認李慶安是美國人

美國官方回應台灣外交部請求「調查立委雙重國籍」一案，回函中明確指出，國民黨立委李慶安與孔文吉擁有美國公民身份。

Our records reveal that Wen-Chi Kung, born 10/18/1957, and Ching-An Lee, born 01/17/1959, have previously been documented as U.S. citizens with U.S. passports and no subsequent loss of U.S. citizenship has been documented.

我們的紀錄顯示，生於 1957年10月18日的孔文吉和生於 1959年1月17日的李慶安有正式成為美國公民並擁有美國護照。沒有任何資料顯示該兩人曾經喪失美國公民身份。
[from: Diane Lee still a US citizen: DPP （該文有事件表列）]

這個李慶安，從 1991年就當美國人，1994 年開始偽法當台北市議員，後來接著偽法當立委，以美國人身份，拿台灣人的納稅錢去繳美國稅（美國政府規定，美國人在海外工作也要納稅給美國政府）。李慶安就這樣明目張膽地污台灣人的錢，整整污了 14 年 ！！

而她在當北市議員時，自己是美國人，卻有那個臉攻擊當時的副市長陳師孟沒有放棄美國籍。後來陳師孟正式辦理辦理放棄美國籍手續，這個攻擊別人「雙重國籍」的李慶安，卻從那時一直到現在還擁有雙重國籍！

我不敢相信，天底下竟有這麼無恥的人！
　　
 

成大學生會自拆國旗以迎接中國學生

先看看這則新聞：「中國學生參訪 成大撤國旗」
http://www.libertytimes.com.tw/2008/new/dec/21/today-p3.htm

蔣孝嚴在十二月十日受邀至成大演講，在場還有受邀參加兩岸學術交流活動的中國天津大學學生，成大學生會卻在演講前主動撤除國旗。

影片在這裡：「成大學生會活動發生的撤國旗事件」
http://tw.youtube.com/watch?v=xbfw0z7XWww

影片中顯示有人在活動前將國旗拆除。令人震驚的是：

1. 受邀演講的蔣孝嚴，在回應在場學生質疑為什麼台灣人要把國旗拿掉時，竟回答：「你們就看開一點！」

2. 針對學生的質疑，可能是學生會的成員竟然睜著眼睛說瞎話，說：「那裡本來就沒有插國旗！」

這個成大學生會，在野草莓時 （2008年11月11日）曾經發表一個不三不四的聲明(見「芭樂日報」http://baladaily.blogspot.com/2008/11/following-is-translation-of-statement.html)

成大學生會聲明稿
Cheng Kung University Student Union Statement

曾經，我們真的這樣相信，台灣民主是驕傲，和平社會是堅持；我們真的這樣相信，天空是寬廣的，陽光是溫暖的，空氣是自由的；我們真的這樣相信，2300萬人民手牽手擁抱著自由的土地；曾經，我們真的這樣相信。

Once, we truly believed this: that Taiwan's democracy was an object of pride; that peaceful society was essential. We truly believed that the sky was broad and limitless, that sunshine was warm, and that the air was free. We truly believed that 23 million people could join hands and embrace this land of freedom. We truly believed this once.

但，過去數日，我們看到台灣社會嚴重分裂，政治人物與政黨為政治利益作出危害社會秩序之決策，各大媒體為政治立場假新聞公正之名行利己之實，國家公權力以「維安」之名，以粗暴過當的方式對待許多和平表達意見者。過去數日，曾經相信的美好變得遙遠，深愛的台灣變得陌生。

But over the past several days, we have seen a serious split in Taiwanese society, with politicians and political parties disrupting societal order for political gain, all major media outlets pursuing their respective political agendas under the guise of reporting the news, and the abuse of state authority under the guise of "public safety" to brutalize people wishing only to peacefully express their opinions. Over the past several days, the beauty we once believed in has become a distant memory, and the Taiwan that we love has become a stranger to us.

我們對此深表痛心疾首，更自覺有義務對民主自由與社會安定表示立場；公民社會組織功能，在於反映社會價值，學生會既有公共組織面向，大學生又是社會上享受知識教育與自由度較大的一群，我們有責任對社會作出承擔。我們絕非試圖假全體學生之名發表聲明，我們只是表達作為由民意授權投票選出之機構的立場。當然，我們也了解學生會組織與各會員同學間未必有相同觀點，故會舉辦連署等活動取得最大之學生代表性。

We express our utmost sorrow at this turn of events, and feel that we have a responsibility to express our position on freedom, democracy, and societal stability. The purpose of organizations in a civil society is to reflect the values cherished by that society. As our student union is also a public organization, we - as university students who enjoy a greater degree of intellectual education and freedom - have a responsibility towards society. We do not presume to issue a statement in the name of the entire student body. We simply express our position in our capacity as a democratically elected representative body. We of course understand that the Student Union's positions on various matters may not reflect that of all our student members. We will therefore hold various petition drives to gauge a position that is most representative of that of the student body.

我們絕非清算過去，而是試圖以學生理性角度，改變現況，推動社會進步與安定。我們更呼籲所有同學與民眾，保持冷靜與理性，孰不知重建遠比破壞來得不易，這是條長遠道路，我們堅持以理性方式從體制中改變和重建體制，拒絕一切的激烈方式和暴力行為！

It is not our intent to demand settlements for the past. Rather, we seek to use our rational viewpoints as students to change the status quo, and push society towards progress and stability. We call on all of our fellow students and citizens to remain calm and rational, it is always more difficult to rebuild than to destroy. The road ahead of us is a long one, we insist on rationally changing and rebuilding the system from within, and reject all acts of violence.

在以上立場下，我們作出二點聲明。聲明如下：

Under the aforementioned principles, we issue the following two statements:

1. 請各主要黨團簽署承諾書，針對集會遊行法中許可制、禁制區、行政刑罰、解散命令、公平救濟管道等爭議內容，參考各國執行成效，廣納各界人士意見，進行討論或修改，並排定時間表。

1. We ask that all major political parties commit to reexamining the Assembly and Parade Law, addressing the current permit system, provisions for restricted areas, status as a punitive or administrative law, forced dispersal orders, fair relief channels, and other controversial points. Similar laws in other countries should be examined to determine effectiveness, and the opinions of people in all walks of life taken into account. A timetable should be established for this discussion and subsequent revision of the law.

2. 請各主要黨團簽署承諾書，承諾集會遊行主辦單位，應負起管制群眾行動責任，配合警方執法，約束暴力行為。兩黨團並應號召其他機關團體、政黨組織、公（工）會等共同承諾。

2. We ask that all major political parties sign an agreement that requires the organizing body for any protest or demonstration to take responsibility for policing the actions of participants, and work with law enforcement agencies to curtail violent acts. The two main parties should also call on other nongovernmental organizations, political parties, and unions to sign this agreement.

以上聲明，不分政治，不分藍綠，我們是一群自發的學生，只為追求社會的進步與和平，只為找回我們相信台灣的美好。

The above statements are non-political and non-partisan. As a group of motivated students, we seek only a progressive and peaceful society, in hopes that we may once again believe in the beauty of Taiwan.

聲明中用了很大篇幅講我們不藍不綠、反對暴力、愛好和平、追求社會和諧。。。然後兩點主要虛無邊際的訴求：

1. 請各主要黨團簽署承諾書，針對集會遊行法中許可制、禁制區、行政刑罰、解散命令、公平救濟管道等爭議內容，參考各國執行成效，廣納各界人士意見，進行討論或修改，並排定時間表。

2. 請各主要黨團簽署承諾書，承諾集會遊行主辦單位，應負起管制群眾行動責任，配合警方執法，約束暴力行為。兩黨團並應號召其他機關團體、政黨組織、公（工）會等共同承諾。

最後這樣結尾：

以上聲明，不分政治，不分藍綠，我們是一群自發的學生，只為追求社會的進步與和平，只為找回我們相信台灣的美好。

多年網路論壇的經驗，讓我每次看到這種標榜「不問政治、不分藍綠」的用詞，心裡便提高警覺。這一篇正是這樣的典型文章，聽起來頭頭是道，好像無懈可擊，但對政府濫用公權力一概不提，而且沒有一項跟立法有關，也沒有時間表，只是建議「大家坐下來再談談」。

集遊法早就經過無數人討論幾十年，現在這些學生的建議竟然是「坐下來再談談」？

我在芭樂日報網站批評成大學生會這個聲明美觀空洞，裝飾著漂亮動人的言詞，但言語間卻透視了反對野草莓、並為國家暴力化妝的訊息。如果台灣人對集遊法採取成大學生會這種「不必有時間表、坐下來再談談就滿意」的心態，那即使集遊法四五十年之後仍然是現在這個樣子，國民黨也可以說，「我們一直有誠意在談啊！」

我本來想也許成大學生會只是一時糊塗，現在發生了「自拆國旗去舔中國學生屁眼」的事，才知道這成大學生會的言行，似乎不是「一時糊塗」能解釋。

台灣人在海外又開始被降級為中國人

台灣人在海外旅遊，通常過海關時都能享受不錯的待遇。中國人則常常會被當盜匪一樣監視、列管。現在，馬英九上台後，不但將台灣貶為「地區」，且在國際上完全棄守台灣主權，已經使得台灣海外遊客、學生又開始被降級為中國人一樣的等級。

底下是（2008年）12月19日的「大話新聞」中的一段：
http://tw.youtube.com/watch?v=Tnboba9gjGM&feature=PlayList&p=2A1DDB11F62E56C0&index=9

差不多該影片開始 2 分鐘時，主持人鄭宏儀提到一封住新竹的觀眾投書：

自從馬政府上台後，台灣的外交國格幾乎消失殆盡。我的女兒離鄉背井嫁到秘魯，七年後的今天，很高興地帶著兩個兒子回台。沒有想到到機場受到墨西哥航空公司拒絕辦理登機手續，理由是沒有墨西哥的簽證。我女兒是買從秘魯經由墨西哥到東京再到台北（的機票）。以前是不需要墨西哥簽證，但航空公司人員告知，從 11 月開始需要簽證，因為台灣被規範（規劃）為 China Taiwan。而 China Hong Kong 不需要。

資深媒體工作者鐘年晃接著提到，

一位台灣在英國的留學生，在英國住很久了，已經有英國工作簽證。以往入境英國，有台灣護照，又有英國工作簽證，可以直接入境。但現在入境，海關卻要他到居住地的警察局報到。他覺得很奇怪，以前都不需要這樣。後來交涉才知道，他已經被當作中國人，在英國，中國人即使有工作簽證也必須到警察局被列管。

記得在 2002 年時，台灣的藍綠兩派正在為『護照要不要加註台灣』而吵翻天。有許多出國旅遊的台灣人在入境他國時因為護照上「Republic Of China」而被當作中國人，即使跟入境國解釋也沒有用，還是被當作賊一樣對待，造成台灣人很多不愉快的旅遊經驗。這樣的抱怨在當時多不勝屬，成為當年「護照加註台灣」的最大助力。

我在當時曾為文提到這事：
『不要落入「中國護照在台灣地區核發」的陷阱』
http://echotaiwan.blogspot.com/2002/01/0201.html

後來護照成功地在 2002年加註了台灣，從那時起到馬英九上台前，已經沒有再聽過台灣旅遊海外被當作中國人一樣監視、刁難的麻煩了。

沒想到馬英九才上台沒幾個月，這些已經解決的問題，又全跑出來成為問題，台灣人旅遊海外又開始被降級為中國人一樣的等級。

我重讀當年那篇文章，看到這一段：

想想二十年來海外台灣人不斷地奔走奮鬥，好不容易讓國際友人把「台灣」一詞提升到「國家」的位階。在過去這二十年中，國民黨政府極力在扯台灣人後腿，不斷告訴外國人「台灣不是一個國家，而是中國的一個省」，帶給外國人極大的困惑，也徒增台灣外交的困境。

真是感慨萬千。看到馬英九執政後的種種，台灣人的民主、主權、人權、尊嚴，全面嚴重退化，過去幾十年來為民主奮鬥的努力好像從未發生，整個台灣又退化回到歷史上的一頁，甚至還在快速地更加退化之中。

以這樣的退化速度，再加上馬英九「榨乾台灣、成就中國」的心態（跟 1947年「228大屠殺」之前的陳儀政府一樣），不要多久，台灣人就會淪落到 228 之前的地位。

亦即，台灣人不只在海外已經被外國視為「跟中國人一樣未開化」來對待，還將被這些「被視為未開化的中國人」視為次等公民。

誰能相信，這是台灣人自己用選票決定的命運？

Disguised student caught on Wild Strawberry protest site

A guy disguised as a student infiltrated to the Wild Strawberry Movement (WSM) camp and stole a laptop that students use to operate their movement:

At about 9 am on 13 December, a student surnamed Lai found their notebook computer was missing. Workers of the Wild Strawberry Movement, after obtaining the agreement of everyone present, began to check through the personal belongings at the site. They then found the student Lai's computer under the jacket of a man claiming to be a student from Fu Jen University's Chinese Department.

Because of the principle of presumption of innocence, students of the Wild Strawberry Movement first asked the man to explain why he had student Lai's computer. However, his words stuttered and he was unable to give a reasonable explanation. Therefore at approximately 9:30 am on the same day, the students of the Wild Strawberry Movement sought the assistance of a police officer at the site. They reported the incident to the police. When the police checked the man's ID it was discovered that the information he had given to the Wild Strawberry Movement was false. Furthermore, he was not a student in Fu Jen University's Chinese Department.

(see http://taiwanstudentmovement2008.blogspot.com/2008/12/1213.html)

This reminds me of another report.

The WSM insists 3 appeals: 1. President Ma and Premier Liu apologize; 2. Chiefs of National Police Agency and of National Security Bureau, Wang and Tsai, step down; 3. Amend The Parade and Assembly Law.

On Nov. 15th, 9 days into WSM's month long protest, Ma government tried to make students scale down their protest by dropping the first two appeals.

Besides asking teachers of those students to participate in the persuasion, the Ma's party, KMT, also did this:

國民黨青年團也「派員」參與學運，希望「鎖定議題」，只談「修法」，並對外釋出「下台和道歉」較難達到，只談修法的訊息。

KMT's Youth League also "sent member(s)" to participate the WSM. Hoping to "scale down the focus" to only the 3rd appeal, they spread words that it's much harder to achieve the goals of "apology" and "resign", so it's better to focus on the "law amending".

Seeing Chen Shui-bian's so-called "money laundering" case from another angle

by Taiwan Echo and Tim Maddog

When the overseas deposits of former Taiwan president Chen Shui-bian's (陳水扁, AKA "A-bian") family -- said to be as high as 300 million US dollars -- were exposed couple of months ago, my instincts told me, A-bian will "die a horrible death" (to borrow Ma Ying-jeou's words). Forget about the insane hatred that pro-blue supporters have for A-bian. Simply because of the huge sum of the money, the Chinese Nationalist Party (KMT) will definitely crush him.

Below is how I see their "blue" print:

Chen Shui-bian claims that the money -- handled by his wife without his knowledge -- consists of leftover donations which came from his supporters during his election campaigns. If so, then the money would belong either to Chen himself or to the DPP -- the party that nominated Chen as a candidate. Whichever one of these it is, it's certain that the money belongs neither to the government nor to the Taiwanese public. And it certainly doesn't belong to the KMT.

But the KMT will most probably do everything it can to make that money their own. The only way they can do so -- in spite of the evidence -- is to use the judiciary tools that they control to fabricate the witnesses and evidence in order to pin the crime of corruption on A-bian. Only by adopting this approach can the KMT claim that the money should be "legally returned" to their hands (the current government, that is).

If we closely watch the investigation of A-bian's alleged "money laundering" over the past couple of months, here's what we see:

1. First, use politicians and pro-blue media to brainwash people into believing "A-bian is corrupt." No evidence is required. In fact the KMT has been applying the same tricks for years to conduct "trials by press" against pro-Taiwan people, so this is really nothing new.

2. Secondly, interrogate, detain, and/or arrest anybody you can -- whether connected to the case or not -- entice, threaten, or coerce them into becoming witnesses for the state by using approaches like, "If you testify that Chen Shui-bian took the money, we won't put you in jail."

Do you think this is unlikely? There are reports/video evidence that Taiwan police have threatened civilians with jail time: "If you don't shut up, I will put you in jail." When Chen Yunlin came to Taiwan, some Tibetans were threatened by the police, being told, "If you dare to go to the airport, you will be jailed for the rest of your life." (警威脅敢抗議 關你一輩子 (Protesters threatened by the police with life in jail))

So again, threats are a common tactic used by Taiwan's police.

3. To save their own asses, the people who have been threatened (for example, poor Yeh Sheng-mao, the former Chief of Investigation Bureau) eventually come up with some so-called evidence, maintaining the false illusion that the uncivilized KMT will somehow keep their promises to set them free.

4. After the fabricated evidence is collected and well-staged, the KMT takes those witnesses (who are no longer valuable to them), turns them into defendants, and gives them heavy sentences (look what happened to poor Yeh Sheng-mao!).

5. Even without any guilt or even a bit of evidence, they put Chen Shui-bian in jail for sure.

As the KMT continues this conspiracy, we will continue to see "witnesses becoming defendants after their statements are taken."

As a result, the KMT will claim that the large amount of foreign deposits owned by Chen Shui-bian's family actually "belongs to the government" -- the KMT-run government, that is.

Poor Yeh Sheng-mao

Earlier, when former Investigative Bureau chief Yeh Sheng-mao held a press conference to announce his decision to follow the attorney office's instructions to incriminate Chen Shui-bian, "The wife of my ex-boss persuaded me to follow the right path and be loyal to the country," I immediately thought: This time, he will be done for.

When you hear these kinds of "keywords" from Chinese culture -- like "persuading someone to follow the right path", "loyal to the country", etc. -- coming from the police or the judiciary system, you know that the moment of catastrophe is at your doorstep.

As I expected, even after Yeh Sheng-mao made statements that were unfavorable towards A-bian, he was still indicted and punished with a heavy sentence.

In the last report cited,

"The judge describes in the official indictment document that, the fund of Chen's oversea deposit ***might*** contain some money from the state affairs fund." (highlight is mine)

"Might" contain some money from the state affairs fund? The court made its judgment based not on evidence but on this kind of guesses?!

The only reason I can come up with is that the KMT in fact couldn't find any evidence, but instead had to resort to the claim that "some of the money in Chen's overseas accounts **might** belong to the government," otherwise they will have no way to get their hands on the money.

There's another case where witnesses became defendants after their statements were taken:

Tsai Mei-li and Chen Chun-ying, originally witnesses, become defendants
http://www.libertytimes.com.tw/2008/new/dec/6/today-p6-2.htm

Will Chen Chih-chung give his money to the KMT?

According to a report by Liberty Times, Chen Chih-chung, son of Chen Shui-bian, agreed to transfer those overseas money to the attorney's office
2008-11-27：「陳致中同意匯回7億 珍未反對」
http://www.libertytimes.com.tw/2008/new/nov/27/today-fo1.htm

Pay attention to the words below:

『檢方表示，陳致中夫婦同意匯款，可視為犯後態度的考量之一，至於是否在起訴書中建請法院從輕量刑或予緩刑，由於還沒偵結，言之過早。林志豪說，陳致中夫婦是在檢方要求建議下，口頭表示同意匯回款項』

"The attorney office says that the fact that Chen Shui-bian's son Chen Chih-chung (陳致中) and daughter-in-law Huang Jui-ching (黃睿靚) have agreed to turn in the money could be considered as a reason for leniency. But it's too early to suggest a reduced sentence to the court because the investigation is still underway. Lin Chih-hao (林志豪) said Chen Chih-chung and Huang had made a verbal agreement to turn in the money (Echo note: remitted to a bank account created by the attorney office), following a suggestion of the attorney's office."

What is so shocking is that the attorney's office bluntly claims that "whether the money is turned in or not" will be considered a factor in determining a sentence.

Before the attorney's office has even provided evidence proving that this is government's money -- which they haven't been able to do so even after months of investigations using the manpower of almost the entire judiciary system in Taiwan-- the money still legally belongs to Chen's family.

Why on earth should Chen Chih-chung and Huang give their legally-owned money to the KMT government in order to have a lighter sentence considered in a case where the defendant has not yet been judged "guillty" by the court?

Isn't that blatant extortion by the attorney's office?

According to what has been reported so far, Chen Chih-chung and Huang have agreed verbally to that suggestion. I believe, if Chen really transfers that money to the KMT, or even if the Chen family "donates" all their wealth they have earned after generations, in the end they will still be given heavy sentences.

If someone is too naive to recognize the brutal nature of the KMT -- if that person fantasizes that as long as they open their hearts (and pocketbooks) to the KMT, then the KMT will keep their promises -- then that person will eventually lose everything.

We can forget about whether "this money should be returned to Chen's supporters." If Chen Chih-chung is smart enough, he should keep that money, so that in the difficult days to come he might have the chance to buy his way out. But as soon as he turns in the money, he loses any leverage with which to negotiate and brings himself and his family to a very tragic end.

Dazed and confused Taiwanese

According to what is revealed about Taiwan history, it has been a common approach for the KMT to coerce someone into making a false accusation (for example, claiming that some innocent person is a communist bandit), then kill him after the statement is taken.

Certainly, we won't see someone getting killed over that nowadays. The KMT's approach is far more delicate in this informative era. However, the conspiracy tactic still works the same way and is enough to get Chen family lose everything. Seeing that same old drama revealed right in front of our eyes, it sends a chill up my spine.

But how do the DPP, pro-green supporters, pro-Taiwan scholars, and pro-Taiwan bloggers see this huge amount of money? This really bothers me.

It's been months since Chen's overseas accounts were exposed. But I don't see any concern regarding whether this is the money that DPP supporters donated to Chen. If it is to be returned, the recipient should be the DPP. It should never be "returned" to a KMT government.

For the DPP and for everyone fighting against pro-China authoritarianism, limited resources are always a problem. The source of financial support is even more crucial when what they are fighting is an organ that owns all the state power of a country and that dominates the public opinion with biased pro-state media at the same time.

It's therefore a puzzle for me that I see only the KMT government is launching almost the power of entire country to take that money into their pocket, but none of pro-green supporters has made any effort to get it back.

Is it because that pro-green has never thought about this? Or to them the money is dirty so they feel despicable to get their hands on it?

I don't get it.

馬政府以炒作扁案為煙霧替統一鋪路

陳水扁洗錢案今天被起訴，全國人注意力都放在這裡，「恰巧」同一天的「江陳協議的自動生效」，就這樣被稀釋了。

「陸委會:江陳協議明生效 據以實施海空直航」
http://iservice.libertytimes.com.tw/liveNews/news.php?no=159418&type=%E6%94%BF%E6%B2%BB

陳水扁如果真的有貪污，也不過是一個人的貪污。在台灣這也不是沒發生過。

但馬政府江陳四協議的「自動生效」，使與全台灣前途至關重要的協約完全規避人民的監督與同意，以前我們批評立法院是國民黨的橡皮圖章，只會蓋章同意，但現在的馬英九更是無法無天，完全不把代表民意的立法院放在眼裡，立法院形同虛設，已經連橡皮圖章都談不上。

更可悲的是，台灣人連一點點反對的聲音都使不上力，現在已經跟鉆版上的死魚死肉沒有兩樣，只能任人宰割。

這已經替馬英九的統一立下了前例，現在的馬英九可以讓關係重大的江陳協議自動生效，接下來還會有更多規避台灣民意監督的「自動生效」，看來「一個月內立法院無決議就自動成為中國一省」也不遠了。

美國護照綠卡「自動失效」，紅衫軍「自動合法」，江陳協議「自動生效」，兩岸「自動統一」。。。學法律的馬英九，請問你們一切自動，民意在哪裡，法律又在哪裡？

這個問題，比野草莓的爭人權還要嚴重，這應該是必須起來革命的生死問題。台灣人，你怎麼還可以不生氣？

以我的推測，為了使扁案更完善地成為馬英九賣台的掩護網，馬政府會採取措施炒作扁案。方法很簡單：不要直接將扁或相關人定罪。讓這些被告在「有罪、無罪」「要關、不關」之間一鬆一緊地拉拉放放。這樣，支持者、反對者的情緒就會不斷上上下下，所有的注意力就會被緊緊地綁在這個事件上。這樣就沒有人會去注意，台灣人的權益，已經在桌底下被「自動犧牲」了。。。

因此，台灣人必須有警覺：法院在這時候對扁案被告施以小惠的時候，不要以為我們打贏了什麼勝仗; 我們可能更進一步邁向死路。

註1：這一篇才貼出來，馬上看到這一則新聞：

「凌晨獲釋　阿扁要回家了！」
http://iservice.libertytimes.com.tw/liveNews/news.php?no=159446

馬政府在江陳協議自動生效的同一天，對扁案來個「起訴、釋放」的戲碼，真是厲害得可怕！！

從另一個角度看陳水扁的海外存款

幾個月前阿扁家族的海外存款被報導出來，金額高達三億美元，我的直覺告訴我，阿扁這次會死得很難看。不要說泛藍人士恨他恨到喪心病狂，光是這筆鉅款，國民黨就一定會把他搞死。

我看到的「藍圖」是這樣的：

阿扁說錢是支持者的捐款。那這筆錢，若不是屬於阿扁的個人的錢，就是屬於支持他出來選舉的民進黨的。不管哪一個，絕對不是屬於政府的錢，也不屬於所有台灣人的錢，更別說是國民黨的。

但國民黨一定會想盡辦法把錢污去。唯一的方式就是不管有沒有證據，動用檢調單位無所不用其極地羅織罪名，將阿扁打成貪污罪。也只有這樣，國民黨可以光明正大的把錢污去。

如果盯著近幾個月阿扁洗錢案的發展，可以看到這樣的脈絡：

1. 首先，利用政客與媒體落實「阿扁貪污」的輿論；

2. 接著，逮捕、居留、詢問有關或無關的人士，威脅利誘將他們網羅成污點證人。譬如說大概像這樣：「如果你出來指證陳水扁有什麼什麼犯行，我們就不會將你入獄10年」等。

3. 這些天真的有關或無關的人士（可憐的葉盛茂）真的出來講一些所謂的對阿扁不利的「證據」，以為國民黨這些野獸會遵守諾言放他們一條生路。

4. 等到這些污點證人偽證收集差不多，沒有利用價值了，就把他們轉成「被告」，照樣治他們的罪 （可憐的葉盛茂）。

5. 當然，阿扁在沒有任何犯罪證據的情況下被逮捕入獄。

6. 國民黨的奸計繼續進行，我們已經而且將會不斷看到「證人變成被告」的情形。

7. 就這樣，阿扁被誣成貪污罪，國民黨名正言順將海外鉅款收入口袋裡。

可憐的葉盛茂

之前前調查局長葉盛茂出來開記者會，說什麼「老長官遺孀對他曉以大義，要他出來面對司法」的話，我就想：葉盛茂這下完了。

當你看到「曉以大義」、「盡忠報國」這種中國文化的關鍵字的時候，你就知道你大難臨頭了。

葉盛茂果然在供出一些對扁不利的話之後還是被起訴並判重刑：

2008-9-25 ：「北檢再傳葉盛茂 擬追訴涉洩密罪」

2008-12-5 ：「在葉盛茂重判10年 當庭癱軟」
>http://www.libertytimes.com.tw/2008/new/dec/5/today-p6.htm

在上面引用的報導裡，有這樣的一段：

『 本案合議庭審判長是李英豪、受命法官曾正龍、陪席法官楊台清。
法官並在判決書指出，扁家海外資金，應有部分來自國務費所得。』

應有部分來自國務費所得？ 法官審案，不靠證據靠猜想？

可能性似乎只有一個：找不到證據，但一定要說成有國務費，要不然貪污罪不成立，就無法搜刮阿扁的錢。

底下是另外一個證人變被告的例子：

陳致中要把錢交給國民黨？

2008-11-27：「陳致中同意匯回7億 珍未反對」
http://www.libertytimes.com.tw/2008/new/nov/27/today-fo1.htm

注意底下這一段話：

『檢方表示，陳致中夫婦同意匯款，可視為犯後態度的考量之一，至於是否在起訴書中建請法院從輕量刑或予緩刑，由於還沒偵結，言之過早。林志豪說，陳致中夫婦是在檢方要求建議下，口頭表示同意匯回款項』

重點：是檢方開口「建議」陳致中夫婦把錢交出來，而且「是不是把錢交出來」是「考量之一」。

問題是：這筆錢既然是合法所得，擁有者就是陳家，為什麼要拿合法擁有的錢給國民黨的政府，以做為「考量之一」？

這不是公然勒索是什麼？

目前看得到的報導，是陳致中「口頭答應」。我相信，即使陳致中真的把錢吐出來，甚至把陳家祖宗八代的財產全部拿出來，最後檢調還是會判他們重罪。

也就是說，不管這筆鉅款有沒有「貢獻」給國民黨政府，陳家到最後下場還是會很慘。對國民黨的獸性認識不清，天真地以為向欲置你於死地的敵人盡心輸誠他就會給你好日子過，到最後只會全部輸光光。

「這筆錢理應屬於民進黨」就不用談。如果陳致中夠聰明，應該保住這筆鉅款，也許還有一絲機會可以用來買通他們夫妻的生路。錢一交出去就沒籌碼，只能任人宰割。

茫茫然台灣人

根據我個人對台灣歷史的瞭解，這種「威脅利誘逼作偽證，成功之後殺人滅口」的奸計，早就是國民黨慣用的拿手好戲。當然，現代的戲碼不會像以前「你作證他是共匪就放你回去，作證之後卻被砍頭」，但是整得你全家敗光也有夠慘的。看著這樣的戲碼如此真實地在眼前上演，真讓人毛骨悚然。

但就這件「阿扁洗錢案」來說，至今仍讓我大惑不解的是：民進黨、泛綠支持者、台灣派學者、部落格主、泛綠網友。。。到底怎麼看待這筆鉅款？

事件發生到現在好幾個月，好像沒看到有任何泛綠人士在討論：這筆錢是台灣人支持民進黨的錢，如果要歸還，應該要歸還給民進黨，怎麼說也輪不到國民黨的官。

民進黨，還有整個台灣派人士，本來資源就非常有限，而在面對集黨、政、立法司法與媒體（一個國家所有的公權力）的強大勢力，資金的來源更是要緊。

為什麼只看到國民黨政府以舉國之力在謀取這筆錢，卻沒有看到任何民進黨或台獨人士，出力把這筆錢要回來？

泛綠是從頭到尾壓根兒沒有想到這一點？還是因為認為「錢是髒的」，所以「不肖拿」？

我無解。

Ma Ying-jeou: arresting CSB too late costs his rating

Just read this from Liberty Times (馬不自我鞭策 藍色焦慮難解), don't know what to make of it:

"對於執政以來民調支持度下滑現象，馬英九並非不在意，但日前馬英九私下與黨內人士「聊及」造成民調支持度滑落因素時，其中一項理由竟是與前總統陳水扁何時被抓起來有關；黨內人士轉述，馬英九指稱藍軍支持者不滿馬政府上台後遲遲不抓阿扁，是導致其支持度大幅下滑的主因之一；黨內人士說，聽到這樣的答案，他也只能「搖搖頭」。"

My translation:

"Regarding to the spiraling down of Ma Ying-jeou's rating (note by Echo: it's less than 30%), Ma Ying-jeou does care. However, when he chatted with his comrades during a private meeting, surprisingly one of the reasons he mentioned was related to when Chen, Shui-bian (CSB), the former President, was arrested. According to Ma's party member, Ma Ying-jeou believes that pro-blue supporters want Ma government to arrest CSB, and failed to do so earlier is one of the main reasons for his overall rating to go down. Ma's party member say, he can only shake his head."

Does this guy really think that blue supporters will give him low rating because of that? How far is his La La land from the earth ?
