中华人民共和国国家主席，军委主席，中国共产党中央委员会主席
胡锦涛2005年4月28日中午在菲律宾华人各界举行的欢迎会上发表重要讲话。谈到台海两岸关系和中国国民党主席连战在大陆的访问时，胡锦涛说，台湾问题关系到中国的主权和领土完整，牵动着包括台湾同胞在内的13亿中国人民的民族感情。实现祖国的完全统一，是包括台湾同胞在内的全中国人民的殷切期盼和神圣使命，也是广大海外同胞的共同愿望。
胡锦涛说，中国国民党主席连战正率领访问团访问大陆。这是中国共产党和中国国民党关系史上的一件大事，也是当前两岸关系中的一件大事。我期待着明天（29日）与连战主席见面并会谈。我相信，连战主席的和平之旅一定会取得成功。

TO 中共中央台办陈云林主任：
书法12条收到吗？未见回执，您的部下不让您看到吧？！
TO 伟大的尊贵的胡锦涛主席：
自称为（55岁的）陈水扁的弟弟的（69岁的）连战先生（“水扁兄，我将去大陆......，”连主席临飞前电陈水扁先生语），经过二次台湾总统败选后，带着对中国国民党在台湾失去台湾同胞的民心深感不安的心情来到大陆，实践证明：从连主席的团队踏步大陆的那一刻，第三次国共合作就成了事实。
问题是：和平之旅会否成为连主席及集团拓展大陆生存和发展空间之旅？经济及政治后果如何？
1---我知道，有台湾同胞问，台湾同胞可以加入伟大的中国共产主义青年团吗？台湾同胞可以加入中国共产党吗？需要何条件？
2---连主席及团队能否有效并诚心协助中国共产党建立中国共产党台湾省委员会？为何不可以？台湾历来是中国领土！
3---前二次国共合作，有伟大的丰硕成果，但也有中华儿女的不少牺牲品（某原三民主义青年团团员经历史的邻居在文革中的遭遇很有说明力）；这次第三次国共合作会避免同类悲剧吗？上层及全中国中华民族中华儿女都做好心理和思想上的充分准备了吗？法制体制建设如何？国际监察体系如何？
这很重要，对于中华民族政治生活质量的提高和政治生活品种品质的享用。
TO 伟大的中共中央全体政治局常委:
请求修订<<中国共产党章程>>,放宽条件,让那些热爱中国共产党的大陆人士们有机会加入伟大的中国共产党,在目前约8,000万中国共产党党员的基础上扩大党员人数;
TO 中华人民共和国公安部部长:
问:21世纪如有大陆人士想加入伟大的革命先行者孙中山先生创办的中国国民党?我们应鼓励?应禁止?应惩办?应宽容随便?请颁布实施(中国国民党主席连战访问大陆后)新形势下的有关方面的条例!!!
TO中华人民共和国全国人大常委会委员长吴邦国先生:
紧急呼吁书:请为了保护全中国普通劳动者的合法利益,请制定<<中华人民共和国大陆政治人士与台湾关系大法>>;

美国自由女神手上的法典，对于全世界的人类来说是多么沉甸甸呵。
美国军队及警察机构在多党制体系里所扮演的成功角色及经验，是全球人类的福气啊。
读美国布什总统的国情咨文（部分） 美国国会
2003年1月28日
美国人民具有坚强的信念，曾奋起迎接我们时代的每一次考验。在逆境中，我国向全世界，向我们自己展现我们国家的品格。美国是一个强大的国家，在使用我们的力量时光明磊落。我们使用武力不是为了征服，我们为了素不相识的人们的自由勇于做出牺牲。
美国人民是自由的人民，深知自由是每个人的权利，是每个国家的未来。我们所珍视的自由不是美国给予全世界的礼物，而是上帝施与全人类的恩惠。(掌声)
我们美国人民相信我们自己―但不只是相信我们自己。我们并不了解―我们并不自以为了解所有的天道，然而我们对其笃信不移，让我们对慈爱的主的信任贯穿全部生命，贯穿整个历史。
愿上帝指引我们，愿上帝继续保佑美利坚合众国。-----George
W.Bush of USA

连战,和平战士!和平领袖!
名言:为(中华)民族立生命,为万世开太平(盛世).
如何能够让整个的中华民族不要再走上战争和流血，如果能够让和平来实现，如何能够提升人民的生活水准，如何能够维护和不断提升我们的国际竞争力，这些重担，都在各位的肩头上。一肩挑起来，就是现代知识分子的一个伟大的格局。那么，用什么话来形容这样的格局，这样的勇气，带领我们到正确的历史方向和目标。我想了再想，把他归纳成12个字，那就是希望各位能够“为民族立生命，为万世开太平”。
小平先生提出改革开放，大家看一看，不但转换了文化大革命的方向，深化的、全面的提升了人民生活的水平，这都是跨时代、了不起的作为。
小平先生讲到，改革开放的路线要管一百年，用他四川的话讲“动摇不得”。没有动摇，今天大家看一看，大陆经贸的发展，经济的成长，可以说样样都是名列前茅。
我们各位都知道，在过去，长久以来，战争流血不止是我们之间，整个的世界，都普受它的痛苦和摧残。联合国前面有一个雕塑，一把枪打了结要断了，它的含义很深。
我相信有智慧、有能力的中华儿女大家都了解，我们可以化干戈为玉帛，点滴的心血累积成我们常常久久的和平关系。
大家都是将来国家、社会乃至民族的领航员。所以在这样的时刻，我又想到以前美国里根总统说的话，他说，假如我们不做，谁来做？假如现在不做，什么时候做？我就是因为这样，所以来到这里。让我们大家共同坚持，互惠双赢，坚持和平。这是我们自我的期许，也是向历史的责任。唯有我们能够达到这样的目标，为民族立生命，为万世开太平，这将是中华民族为举世称赞最重大的成就，也是我们面对世世代代炎黄子孙共同的光荣，谢谢大家。

May 2005 Newsletter
Dear
Friend:
I hope this newsletter finds you in good
spirits! April has been a busy month for legislative work here in
Washington, D.C. If I haven’t seen you while traveling around the
Commonwealth this month, I hope this note will help to update you on my
activities on your behalf in the U.S. Senate.
Virginia Sports Hall of Fame Opens In Portsmouth
Last month, I had the opportunity to deliver the
keynote speech at the grand opening of the Virginia Sports Hall of Fame
in Portsmouth. The Hall of Fame’s new facility is a tremendous
attraction which will bring more visitors, events and business activity
to downtown Portsmouth.
It doesn’t matter if
you’re a Redskins fan, a racing fan or a fan of any other sport – I
think all Virginians will love this wonderful, interactive, exciting
museum.
My father was inducted into the Virginia
Sports Hall of Fame seven years ago and I had the honor of giving his
induction speech. I was thrilled to be back as part of this grand
opening for the human spirit inspired by our Virginia sports heroes!
Fighting to Keep Taxes off Your Internet Bill
Just two weeks ago, I introduced legislation with
Senator Ron Wyden (D-OR) and Congressman Chris Cox (R-CA) which would
permanently extend the four year Internet access tax moratorium we
passed last year to keep State and local taxes off the Internet. As you
can probably tell, one of my top priorities in the Senate is to promote
the growth and opportunity of the individual enterprise zone that is the
Internet.
I have also recently introduced
legislation in the Senate with Senator Wyden that prohibits a tax on
telephone service that was enacted to finance the Spanish American War
more than a century ago from being extended to Internet access. That
tax-known as the Federal Excise Tax on Communications (FET)-is currently
applied to all local and long distance telephone service. My legislation
effectively 'walls off' the Internet from any attempts to apply the FET,
which currently is 3 percent but has been higher throughout its long
history. The principle of my Federal Internet Tax Prohibition is to make
the Internet remain as accessible as possible to all people in all parts
of our country, forever.
Just as we are fighting
to keep the States and localities from imposing regressive taxes (from
15-18 percent), we will also fight to ban the federales from instituting
this Spanish American “luxury tax” on your Internet bill. By expanding
this tax, the federal government would hinder the investment and
deployment of broadband services and would impact economic growth of
small businesses especially in smaller towns and rural areas.
Standing Up for Reform at the United Nations
Senate Democrats have been attacking the
President’s nominee, John Bolton, to be the U.S. ambassador to the U.N.
But I think John Bolton has the right experience, knowledge, background
and principles to represent the U.S. in the United Nations at this
crucial time of needed scrutiny, accountability and reform.
The opponents don’t want to talk about John
Bolton’s record of achievement. This is the person who gathered 60
nations together on the proliferation security initiative, which
interdicted weapons of mass destruction. And he led the fight in getting
the United Nations to repeal an odious resolution which likened Zionism
to racism.
I actually like the fact that he's not
going to be seduced by pontificating, bureaucratic platitudes in the
United Nations. Honest, vigorous leadership for reform in the U.N. is
good for the U.S. taxpayers, for the advocacy of the advancement of
freedom, and also for pointing out how farcical it is that the United
Nations allows repressive countries like Syria, Zimbabwe and Sudan on
the Human Rights Commission.
The Democrats are
off on these detours and tangents of hearsay and uncorroborated
evidence. But the fact is: John Bolton is the right man for the American
taxpayers, for our values and ultimately the credibility of the United
Nations.
Keeping Our Armed Forces Strong
I was especially pleased with two pieces of
legislation that we passed in April to support our men and women in
uniform.
In an unlikely pair, I teamed up with
Senator Dick Durbin (D-IL) for a great cause that we both strongly
support. We introduced an amendment which eliminates the pay-gap that
exists when federal employees who serve in the National Guard and
Reserves are called up for active duty. As a former Governor, I
understand the need to have a strong National Guard; it is important
that we do everything reasonable to help lessen the financial burden
that Guard and Reserves and their families face when they are serving
their country. The brave members of our Guard and Reserve sacrifice much
for this country and I do not believe we should be asking them to
sacrifice a portion of their hard-earned salary on top of everything
else.
I was also extremely pleased at an
amendment we passed to save the aircraft carrier USS John F. Kennedy –
what a Virginia-Florida team victory! I especially thank Senator Warner
for his leadership on this important matter. This was a bi-partisan
success to provide our Navy with the maximum flexibility to meet the
requirements for aircraft carrier presence in all regions of importance
to the U.S. To reduce the number of carriers now would be illogical and
shortsighted, especially in this time of war and the rapid build up of
the Chinese Navy. This was the wise approach for the sake of our
security and the flexibility that we need for projecting our power and
protecting our interests in the Far East especially when the USS Kitty
Hawk and the USS Kennedy are our only two conventional carriers that can
be ported in Japan.
The Passing of Two Great
Leaders
Unfortunately, in the past few weeks, we
have seen the passing of two great leaders that I’d like to mention.
On April 2, the world lost one of the great
inspirational leaders of our time. I will always remember Pope John Paul
II as one of the true giants, along with Ronald Reagan and Margaret
Thatcher, who provided the leadership to win the Cold War by standing up
against the Communist repression of the human spirit. In addition to his
steady support of freedom, Pope John Paul II was a strong voice of moral
clarity during a time when popular culture has devalued life. During his
truly historic life, Pope John Paul II was an inspirational,
transformational and admired servant of God and mankind. He will be
remembered always as a man of strength and peace, courage and
principles. He helped change the world for the better and we will be
forever grateful.
On March 31, we all lost
another inspirational leader and vibrant spirit in Anne Kincaid. Anne
was a fighter and a winner who put her devotion to God and service to
her family as the clear priorities in her life. In her public service
roles she consistently and selflessly advocated for the sanctity of life
and the education of public officials about the unborn. There was no
more committed and articulate advocate for the Life movement than Anne
Kincaid. Susan and I will miss her greatly and are keeping her husband,
Bill, and their sons Ben, Kennon and Wren in our thoughts and prayers
during this difficult time.
One more thing…
This Sunday, May 1st, I’ll be appearing on
“Meet the Press” with Tim Russert to discuss John Bolton’s nomination
to be UN ambassador, social security and the obstruction of President
Bush’s judicial nominees. Check your local listings for air times.
