Bristling at criticism in the run-up to the Summer Olympics, China is lashing back at its foreign critics — by name.

Earlier this week, the state Xinhua news agency called House Speaker Nancy Pelosi “disgusting.” And on Tuesday, Foreign Ministry spokeswoman Jiang Yu lambasted a CNN commentator, Jack Cafferty, for his “vicious” commentary on China.

“We solemnly request that CNN, and Cafferty himself, take back the malicious remarks and apologize to the Chinese people,” Jiang said at a news briefing.

China understands Pelosi!

[MrB]

Hey, they can’t denegrate Pelosi!

She’s a socialist queen bee wannabe, but she’s OUR socialist queen bee wannabe!

[EDINVA]

Who’d have thought we’d ever agree with the Chinese state-run newspaper ?

[seanmerc]

That’s what I was thinking—they got one right!

[WesternPacific]

Anyone that calls Pelosi “disgusting” can't be all bad, can they?

[Anti-Bubba182]

Point to the Chicoms!

“calls Pelosi “disgusting”

Difficult to believe communists and conservatives could agree on anything.

Is Jupiter aligning with Mars?

&&&
Just goes to show that even murderuous communists regimes can be right on occasion.

Xinhua mouthpiece’s commentary on Pelosi

Pelosi would remain the least popular person for China if she stiff-neckedly clings to her double standards and an anti-China stance.

[Old Retired Army Guy]

Zinhua News Agency called Nancy Pelosi disgusting...This is tough, but I have to agree. Why is it that the Chinese press can get it right and the U.S. Press is silent?

[iopscusa]

Forget the Free Trade argument for opening up Chicom Land. The Olympics will show the true colors of these Red Tyrants.

Must not be a Chinese word for, um, certain things.

[MeanWestTexan]

Right there with you.

Here I am all prepared to dislike China for their military buildup and arming of terrorists, and they go and say sweet things like this.

It’s very disarming charm.

[Smokin' Joe]

Hey, they can’t denegrate Pelosi!

Until I saw your folow on comment, I agreed. She has to be pretty close to the point where almost anything you say bad about her is realy a compliment compared to reality.

[dragnet2]

An angry China? Compared to the mood of the American people, they haven’t the first clue what anger is.

[E. Cartman]

Forget the Free Trade argument for opening up Chicom Land. The Olympics will show the true colors of these Red Tyrants.

Agreed. The Chicoms can keep slapping on the make-up, but a pig will always be a pig.

[envisio]

Come on guys....

I can’t stand my sister-n-law. I can call her a b*** and fight with her but when someone outside the family does it....I take her side. No matter how much I hate her, she still has my backup against someone outside the family.

Hmmm I agree with China about that. Pandy

[Old Grumpy]

“China . . . calls Pelosi “disgusting”

They finally got ONE thing right.

[dragnet2]

We’re now supposed to be concerned about China being angry at their critics?

What a laugh.

[Hot Tabasco]

state Xinhua news agency called House Speaker Nancy Pelosi “disgusting.”

I guess China isn't THAT bad after all......

Even a stopped clock is right twice a day.

[chilepepper]

i have to agree with the red chinese communist mandarins on this one — i also find nancy pelosi disgusting.

[353FMG]

“Earlier this week, the state Xinhua news agency called House Speaker Nancy Pelosi “disgusting.”

Xinhua news agency seems to be better informed than the NYT.

[MississippiMasterpiece]

I think I’ll have some Kung Pow chicken for lunch today as a show of solidarity with the Chinese press.

[NRPM]

Gotta give credit where credit is due - Pelosi met with the Dalai Lama.

China is not going to like the “free press” aspect of being in the world’s spotlight.

[MEGoody]

Earlier this week, the state Xinhua news agency called House Speaker Nancy Pelosi “disgusting.”

True. . .but even a broken clock is right twice a day.

[MEGoody]

No matter how much I hate her, she still has my backup against someone outside the family.

Nancy is your sister in law??? :O

[LRS]

Ha! I am reminded of the type of rhetoric one heard during the era of the Sino-Soviet split...

[kenth]

Completely agree. Even in jest I won’t take sides with the Chinese. Let them simper and whine, they deserve every bit of criticism.

[ReveBM]

These billion Chinese people are always sitting around taking umbrage at things. If we could even get 50 million Americans quietly to stop buying Chinese products in response to their poor quality, it would bring a greater wind of change than all of the smoke-blowing and hot air spouting from the Middle Kingdom.

If you can't buy American, at least buy Mexican!
