Do you remember Tom Friedmans column in praise of the efficiency of Chinas enlightened, benevolent totalitarianism? It must have hit a nerve because apparently he got a lot of people in America asking themselves Why cant we be more like China? And last week, they answered their own question: YES WE CAN!(snip)
Note to self: must requisition 100 million pair of white gloves for our Civilian Military Force
(snip)Anyway, once we get rid of general elections, the proles will be at least as enlightened as their Chinese counterparts, who just let their betters decide who to put into power next. Coincidentally, China is holding its 18th Chinese Communist Party Congress of Betters this week, at which Xi Jinping will be anointed President on Thursday.
Like Big Guy, Xi Jinping had the good sense to punch above his weight when selecting a political spouse:
Xi Jinpings wife, Peng Liyuan, is an attractive folk singer (like Carla!) and as such is expected to be a bit of a celebrity First Lady, perhaps giving even our veteran Lady M a run for her money. (snip)
Anyway, having attractive, accomplished wives isnt the only thing these two world leaders will have in common:
Xi Jinping has been described as an ambitious ideologist, pragmatist, staunchly anti-American, being managed and his movements carefully scripted to support the China Regime propaganda machine.
Wow! Substitute Democratic Party for China and are we not talking separated at birth...Continued

Interestingly, North Korea’s president, Kim Jong-Eun, recently married a singer as well.
Not too many bites on this article, must have hit a nerve. There’s no shortage of D’s and R’s who would love to remake the US economy in the image of china’s. Think of the command one would have over the peasants in the quest for power and favorability with the ruling party. Get in bed with the devil, and don’t be surprised when you get screwed. And oh yes, it CAN happen here in the U.S. too, soon enough.
Can’t wait to see what the WH muslim tree will be adorned with this year.
