Where Have All the Commies Gone? Long Time Passing.

What's this? Vietnam is getting into the WTO?

HANOI, Vietnam (AP) -- Vietnam's legislature ratified the country's entry into the World Trade Organization on Tuesday, paving the way for the communist nation to become the global trade body's 150th member. Vietnam's membership will take effect Dec. 28, 30 days after the National Assembly vote, opening the gates to increased foreign investment and trade in Southeast Asia's fastest-growing economy. The move was approved by a vote of 444-3, with 2 abstentions.
I thought the North Vietnamese killed 58,000 Americans so they could set up a communist utopia. What's going on here? Membership in the WTO is the epitomy of capitalism. That's why you see all those lunatic demonstrators tearing things up wherever the WTO meets. I have no objection to normalizing relations with Vietnam -- once the regime that conducted the Vietnam War is out of power and Hanoi admits that communism is dead in Vietnam. Otherwise, they should stick to their communist guns and eat shoe leather like the North Koreans.
