This is what I wrote on it. The version with links can be found in here:

Recently, Yahoo and Google have been asked to appear before Congress to answer questions concerning free speech and the internet in China, as both of these companies have made efforts to develop government friendly search engines in China, which specifically censor events like Tiananmen square and the Dalai Lama.

Google has made attempts towards the American public to always be honest. When typing in a phrase like 'failure' used to produce a biography of President George W. Bush through the technique of 'Googlebombing', Google posted the following statement:

"Pranks like this may be distracting to some, but they don't affect the overall quality of our search service, whose objectivity, as always, remains the core of our mission."

Apparently, Google's "objectivity" only is applicable when searching in the United States. Google would be more comfortable alterting the results one gets when searching for controversial issues to China, helping prop up the policies of a government that has countless human rights abuses under its' belt, but they would be unwilling to halt an internet prank defrauding the integrity of their search engine.

Way to go, Google. Objectivity, as always, remains the core of your mission in distorting search engine results for Communists. Objectivity is only achieved when the worker's revolution is actualized through the dictatorship of the proletariat.
