Sally Forth is not a political strip nor should it ever be. That's why we'll just label Faye's remark as "in-character dialogue" or "factual reporting."

Blog Mission Statement
A simple grilled cheese sandwich. Something that can be procured anywhere at any time. Nothing too exciting, right?
But what if I put a little butter on the bread before I grilled that sandwich? That would add a little extra zing, right? And what if instead of using plain old American cheese I opted for something a tad more exotic, like Camembert, Stilton or Roquefort? Now we're talking, right?
And what if instead of using bread for my grilled cheese sandwich I used two large blocks of pure platinum? And what if instead of eating the platinum I sold it and then used that small fortune as venture capital for a Beijing-based conglomerate that could take advantage of Chinese local business incentives, cheap labor, lax environmental laws and surging global interest in the fastest-growing economy in the world, thereby ensuring returns in the billions of dollars even in the face of a collapsing U.S. dollar and a massive industrial shift from the technical to service business sector? Wouldn't that be nice?
That's exactly what Francesco Explains It All is. In an endless buffet of indistinguishable tastes, it's the grilled platinum Stilton cheese sandwich that could forever destabilize geoeconomics. Care for a bite?

BADASS!
In our paper (The Seattle Times) SF runs on the same page as "Prickly City" (a bitter little strip). Today, PC was comparing Obama's policy folks to Chinese re-education camps.
So, it was actually pretty nice to have SF balance out that little bit of nastiness.
Maybe some of Piraro is rubbing off, eh? Next, you'll have Faye refusing to wear leather or eat cheese.
Human rights researchers estimate that every year China probably executes more people than any other country in the entire world.
Nobody sentenced to death in China gets a fair trial in line with international standards. That's because Chinese system doesn't presume innocence. It uses evidence extracted under torture. It restricts defendants' access to lawyers. And it’s subject to political interference.
Pressure must be put on China to reform its use of the death penalty. It needs to happen now, while the world is watching, when the Olympics are over, the world be will looking elsewhere, they won't care.
And that’s just one issue. Then there's China’s use of torture, its detention and jailing and jailing of peaceful human rights defenders, its re-education through labour scheme, Internet and media censorship, its treatment of the Tibetan and Uighur people .....
