有人說我看不清楚 ...I know that you are also interested in our view of the recent referenda, which President Chen Shui-bian has offered for consideration by the voters concurrent with the March 20 election. We support referenda in principle; they are tools that all democratic countries use to gauge the sentiments of the people, though it's usually the case that you have these referenda coming from the bottom rather th an drawn up by the top. 我知道你們也對我們近來關於那陳水扁總統與在320大選一起舉辦的公投的觀點感興趣, 我們原則上支持公投,因為他們是所有民主國家用來判斷意見的工具,僅管公投通常是 由下而上,而不是由上層形成。 As the Deputy Secretary said in Beijing, referenda are generally reserved for very difficult and divisive issues, but the wording of these referenda is neither difficult nor particularly divisive.... 如同副國務卿在北京所說,公投通常是保留來解決困難與分歧的議題,但這些公投 (320的兩題)既不困難也不特別分歧。 不知道我哪裡看不清楚了? ※ 引述《okFed (ok連線Fed板)》之銘言： : 不,你們才不要屈解美國立場 : 與媒體對抗? 看來也不過一群無恥之徒,任意節取自己想要的片段 : 然後就大肆抹黑,講得一副媒體多委屈偉大的民進黨 : 很不幸地,這些新聞稿我也都看過原文 : 美國多次表達的是"他們原則上支持公投" 因為支持民主程序的存在 : 是美國一貫國策,但支持"公投"指的是讓公投法、與公投行為本身可以存在 : 但不支持,並質疑這ㄧ次的公投是陳水扁總統為個人選舉考量而做 : 還說美國立場沒問題? 結果阿米塔吉返美,記者問他,他在大陸講的話是 : 不是受大陸影響? 結果他回答當時表達的就是美國的立場,並不是受中共影響。 : 讓美國公開質疑,倒還是韓戰後第一次。 : 看到一個"We support referenda in principle"就高興的以為劉屏說謊? : 是瞎眼,沒看到美國衝著民進黨發表了那麼多次負面看法? : 看來民進黨搞民主口號卻完全沒教會人守原則和重法治 : 不是無恥就是可悲。 : ※ 引述《retsam (filled with Mondays)》之銘言： : : 在討論對新聞的意見前 應先質疑新聞的真實性 : : 這雖然是一篇舊報導了(我也想早點po 不過最近才整理出來) : : 不過如果你還想知道真相 如果想知道媒體如何曲解美國立場 : : 請看下去 : : 鮑爾在聽證會上的文字搞還沒刊出 但你可以到以下網址觀看 : : 國會影像紀錄 : : http://wwwc.house.gov/international_relations/fullhear.htm : : 在2/11 2:13位置 : : 中國郵報在2004/2/13有刊出鮑爾的言論 : : http://www.chinapost.com.tw/taiwan/detail.asp?ID=45900&GRP=B : : "We don't really see a need for these referenda," said Powell, in : : response to a question from House International Relations : : Committee member and U.S.-Taiwan Caucus co-chair : : Representative Sherrod Brown, a Democrat from Ohio. : : As a democracy, though, Taiwan has every right to hold a : : referendum, according to Powell. : : "Taiwan is a democratic place, and if they choose to have a : : referenda, they can have a referenda," he said. : : But the U.S. administration is "not expressing support for either of : : the referenda," he said. : : 而副國務卿阿米塔吉在北京表示什麼 : : http://www.state.gov/s/d/rm/28614.htm : : DEPUTY SECRETARY ARMITAGE: Yeah, recently in : : Washington, and elsewhere here, we've had back and forth visits and : : discussions of Taiwan.
