Han has recently made such ludicrous suggestions as displaying the entire National Palace Museum collection at once and posting flag platforms on all mountains over 3,000 meters in height. In response to these proposals, Hsieh on the political commentary program "News Face-to-Face" (新聞面對面) went on a 10-minute rant about Han saying he is "speaking without thinking."
On the show, Hsieh borrowed Han's words "it's absolutely not always true that wanting something means being able to do something" in criticizing him. For example, in the case of the flag platforms Han initially said, "it must be done." only to backtrack the next day and say there should be environmental impact assessments and consideration given to soil and water conservation, among other factors.
