the overall quality but the lens really shines b... 阅读全帖 |

By Fareed Zakaria, CNN
Events in the Middle East and North Africa are of historic importance, but

康妈事件引发的大规模论战经过两个阶段：
第一阶段： 穷逼WSN vs. NC圣母团 （主要还是亲友团伪装的）
第二阶段： 广大P民 vs. 职业”慈善”人
当初洗白coach包还有希望，可是到了现在：官二代背景，你怎么洗白？
百万美刀的个人股票账户，你怎么洗白？
和职业慈善大户千丝万缕的联系，你怎么洗白？
现在有个很奇怪的现在，拼命力挺康妈的基本都是职业“慈善”人。看这些华人“
慈善”团体里，常驻各种华人论坛上的专职拉捐款人的各种行为艺术，我觉得这15%的
提成真是物美价廉，非常划算。
