   “And very sincerely, I want to make clear that you have nothing to worry about in terms of their viability,” Biden said, according to a pool report.

   Seriously, if someone in the Obama administration, especially Biden told you, a Chinese official, that, how uneasy would that make you?

   Not good at all……..

    Just like Newt, Joe is an expert at shooting himself in the foot while it is still in his mouth. I’m told that Joe later explained that he was currently running a little short and asked his hosts if they could loan him a couple thou. to help get him back to the States. He assured them he was good for it and would mail them the reimbursement as soon as he got home.

    Here is how the borrowed money is being spent. From The Examiner

    New documents obtained by Judicial Watch through a Freedom of Information Act request show that the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) spent over one million taxpayer dollars promoting Obamacare in coordination with the 2010 mid-term elections.

    The documents include correspondence between HHS officials and representatives from The Ogilvy Group, the public relations firm hired to drive web traffic to an HHS site promoting Obamacare as “the Affordable Care Act.”

    On October 25, 2010, HHS New Media Communications Director Julia Eisman sent an email to Ogilvy Senior Vice President Imani Green, reading, “Given the high performance, we’re wondering if we should we consider reallocating resources from the lesser performing words and put more $$ to ‘Obamacare’ – at least for the next 7 days.” Seven days from October 25, 2010, was November 2nd, Election Day.

    “There is nothing special about November 2nd other than the fact that it was Election Day,” Judicial Watch President Tom Fitton told The Examiner. “What possible reason could the Obama HHS have for maximizing their propaganda dollars in the seven days before Election Day other than to elect Democrats? This seems to be a blatant violation of the Hatch Act, among other laws. Congress needs to get on the ball and investigate,” he concluded.

    Chinese: No,no, we no lend you no more. You give check right ‘way.

    T-Bone, every week we get the SEC “Roundup” of cases, investigations etc. A firm I worked for years ago was fined $500,000 for placing CDO’s in various WI Teacher’s Union pension plans. Not that CDO’s were a ‘good’ deal, but they weren’t just a BAD deal for WI Teacher’s Union PENSIONS!

    Nope, nothing political ‘there’? That is a HUGE fine. Especially for a small firm. And the guy they made the scapegoat? Just a low-level sales guy.

    I guess NOBODY messes w/ the teacher’s union pension? Showed him huh? Read.The.Prospectus!

    Halcyon Maxwell: Oh well it’s obvious you don’t understand. Our society is dedicated to contacting the other world.
    Police Chief Art Fuller: The communists?
    Halcyon Maxwell: The spiritual world!

    When in the Course of human events, it becomes necessary for one people to dissolve the political bands which have connected them with another, and to assume among the powers of the earth, the separate and equal station to which the Laws of Nature and of Nature’s GOD entitle them a decent respect to the opinions of mankind requires that they should declare the causes which impel them to the SEPARATION.

    WE hold these truths to be self-evident, that ALL MEN are created equal, that they are endowed by their CREATOR with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are LIFE, LIBERTY and the pursuit of HAPPINESS–That to secure these rights, Bovernments are instituted among MEN, DERIVING their just power from the CONSENT OF THE GOVERNED,–That whenever ANY Form of Government becomes DESTRUCTIVE of these ends, it is the RIGHT OF THE PEOPLE to alter or to abolish it, and to institute new Government, laying its foundation on such principles and organizing its powers in suchform, as to them shall seem most likely to effect their Safety and Happiness. PRUDENCE, indeed, will dictate that Governments long established should not be changed for LIGHT and TRANSIENT causes; and accordingly all experience hath shewn, that mankind are more disposed to suffer, while evils are sufferable, than to right themselves by abolishing the forms to which they are accustomed. But when a LONG TRAIN OF ABUSES and USURPATIONS,pursuing invariably the same Object evinces a design to reduce them under absolute DESPOTISM, it is their RIGHT, it is their DUTY, to THROW OFF such GOVERNMENT and to provide new Guards for their future security..

    I think ‘in the Course of human events’, is upon us.

    If China militarily invaded Taiwan, the stock market would crash. Their economy would collapse. China would then have 1.5 billion crazies running around raising hell looking for food, clothing and warmth. China enjoys “skirmishes” with their foes, not all out war. Intimidation by flexing muscles is the best way to steer political decisions of adversaries. With so many weak leaders, a little shove in the school hallways can instill a lot of fear when everyone watches.

    Disgusting! Seeing the US suck up to some country for money. Don’t make the economy the only focus for 2012. There is enough other material for O’s defeat even if Americans are able to overcome his onerous regulations and revive this depression. We are a great nation and this (Obama the Red) too, will pass.

    Yes. All out war would be the last resort. The PRC is patient, it probably believes it has a good chance of outlasting and overcoming the US as the primary nation of influence in Asia within the next 20 years without resorting to war.

    Oh sure, we’ll be paying back the $2 trillion we owe them.

    But by then we’ll be like Zimbabwe.

    Wait. We have a Mugabe clone as president.

    We are Zimbabwe.
