There has been some speculation lately about Obama's mental state - he's been losing lately and some here have posted what are hopefully only rumors.

I don't like the idea of him throwing a hissy-fit just at this particular time.

I heard Barry has a split lip. Wonder if it has anything to do with this?

This is not a routine exercise.

They are operating in waters that have been “hot” for years.

Why bother?

"North Korea" is Chinese for "plausible deniability."

Don't think for a second that North Korea or Pakistan has the technology to create nuclear weapons on their own. The former was given to harass China's enemies in Japan, South Korea, and Australia. The latter was given to counterbalance India.

This is another in a long series of probing attacks, and it was already either tacitly approved or backed by the Chinese. NoKorea is a wholly owned subsidiary of China, Inc., and claims to the contrary that the Chinese are "increasingly worried," or "embarrassed" by their hand-puppets on the Korean peninsula are a lot of smoke.

"China has warned against military activity near its coastline ahead of U.S.-Korea naval exercises, according to Reuters ..."

How soon before the ChiComs demand that we pull out of South Korea? How soon before the ChiComs demand that we leave Japan, Guam, American Samoa or surrender the Pacific islands that America owns or administers (Midway etc.)? How soon before the Chicoms demand the America withdraw its naval forces from Pearl Harbor and shut the base down because they find it too threatening or because its existence may constitute a "provocation" and an obstacle to peace in the Pacific?

How soon before the ChiComs demand Australia be given to them?

I say America should tell them to go to hell!

Obama has been spotted with stitches in his lip, from “playing basketball”.
I wonder if he was playing with Chinese diplomats?

STFU China. It’s your North Korea buddies you should be worried about. Should it start up again with the North you can expect a sand box right up to your border. Americans are getting tired of your crap.

"If this sounds familiar, it's because the same thing happened after the Cheonan shipwreck. America sent some warships to join in naval exercises, China was outraged, and America yielded and moved the exercises primarily to a more distant location."

I'll huff and I'll puff...and do nothing. More window dressing to cover for inaction.

China is mad at us about the Feds printing dollars in addition to telling us a while ago about the Naval exercises. As far as owning us well the Fed. (Bernanke) is now the largest holder of our debt but I believe they are also furious because the Fed is devaluing the dollar (and they have $884 Billion of them) and we are exporting our inflation to boot. There’s a lot of hungry Chinese to contend with so much so they’ve started subsidizing them but for how long?

China warns against US-S Korea joint naval drills

Beijing: China Friday warned against any military acts in its exclusive economic zone without its permission as the US and South Korea prepare for joint naval exercises in the Yellow Sea this weekend in a show of strength against belligerent North Korea, Beijing’s close ally.

“We hold a consistent and clear-cut stance on the issue. We oppose any party to take any military acts in our exclusive economic zone without permission,” Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesman Hong Lei said in a statement.

The comment came as the US and South Korea are to launch a joint naval exercise on November 28 amid heightened tensions after North Korea shelled a South Korean island on Tuesday.

About a year ago our President went around the world telling other leaders what a bad bunch the USA was. According to Obama we were the pits when it came to living with the world. Most of them believed what he said because it was good political cover back home. Now our President is faced with a North Korea and China that have no respect for us, and he just ran out of courage.

A strongly worded statement, delivered by a junior statesman, because our (basketball) Player, the President, has a busted lip. Dear God, help us the next 2 years.

China owns us. Until they fire the first shot at us. Then we stop all payments on our debt to them. They get really really mad, and we put our hands to our ears and tell them we can’t hear them.
