China will never go down, and don't think you can banish communism. Because the people won't let it. They know they are the last standing, they are the only ones left. America is in a decline while China's climaxing, America will go down. We are just done with our prime, if anything, we were going into a depression since 1992 (and don't say you don't know that year). Communism is the American's medias' worst nightmare, because of censorship. I hope we all have to read one newspaper and wipe my butt with one brand of tiolet paper. I hope we all die for our next generations to wear the red armband. We deserved 9/11, and they enjoyed it. You probably hate me now, I know, you just still think like its 1945, well too bad its 2005. We only stand to fall.
I have a soft spot in my heart for stripey cats. Give him some special front-of-the-ears scratchies for me.

IB4TZ, I think. My first time.
Nope! Shoot!
"When it comes to economies faltering, be careful of what you wish for it affects all economies."
With regards to the Chinese economy, this is not all that bad, vis-a-vis the United States.
For 30+ years we've been hearing about the "largest untapped consumer market" and the benefits to American business, none of which has materialized. The reasons are legion: closed Chinese markets, intellectual and patent piracy, copyright violations, etc. Should the Chinese economy crash, all that would happen is that American corporations would lose money on what have been, for the most part, very bad investments. Free markets have this incredible ability to correct themselves in this way (just ask Ken Lay).
The resulting economic dislocation this would cause would only have relatively short-term effects in this country. The American economy is sufficiently large and diversified so as to survive this kind of hit, and would eventually continue on their merry way after investment capital shifted to more profitable regions or industries. China's economy would not. Once the rotten foundations of Chinese "capitalism" are exposed, American business simply will go back to the tried-and-tested method of investing where they have better prospects of profit (i.e. India, Indonesia, Eastern Europe, South America and, hopefully, HERE).
Continuing to extend MFN status to China, and continuing to pour billions into the Chinese economy is merely the propping up of very bad investments and protecting American corporations from the consequences of their own stupidity.
EEEEWWWWWWWWWWW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
The first official use of one of your new graphics :) Thanks! :)
What the h*ll are you babbling about?
" while China's climaxing, America will go down."
That's just wrong.
Sheesh! Help me out here folks ...Someone is a moron as well as a troll.
No president ... much less "the army guy" ... was "reelected twice during WWII".
The answer was NOT Dwight Eisenhower, the general who was the victor in the European Theatre of Operations [ETO, May of 1945] in WWII ...
WWII ended in 1945 ...
Ike was elected to his first term as president in the fall of 1951 and took office in the spring of 1952 ... nearly seven years after the end of WWII. So, he ["the Army guy"]clearly could not have been "reelected twice during WWII".
During WWII, the only "reelection" of a U.S. president was the fourth term of Franklin Roosevelt in 1944. Roosevelt's "reelection" for his third term in 1940 preceded the entry of the U.S. into the war in December 1941.
Nitpicking, perhaps, but certainly relevant. These "liberals in the publishing business" must be the ones publishing the text books that are being used in the gubmint schools to turn out the scholars of today.
Yea, we have been propelled into "third world status" with the foreign "super powers" laughing with glee at our economic demise.
Holy shite!! That was a pretty good rant. I commend you Kemo-sabe..(bows deeply). By the way, spell check actually gives alternatives for "shite". And yes, it's what you think.
