Now we smell the smoking gun as loans were desperately needed for war funds in middle east! You know China has funded america's wars in Bush's era!

Can you describe the smell of your government telling local banks this week to roll over1.7 trillion US dollars in bad loans?

Where does Bush fit in that scenario? All those newly built ghost towns in China, all that wasted "stimulus" money. No wonder Obama, his dimwit sidekick Sheriff Joe Biden and court "intellectuals" like Thom Friedman admire the central planners destroying your country.

America is plainly not smart enough to know what is in their best interest, it is America's trade agreements which got it into it's current dilema, exporting jobs gleefully for corporate profit. Strong ties, ha, America is loosing.

Heh, if only that was the case. America's Trade agreements are not what is endangering the US, but rather its leadership, and the ever growing, ever expanding bureaucracy and welfare state. Do away with that, cut back on some of the more burdensome regulations, and the US economy would explode again. Trade agreements? Don't make me laugh.

This will ruffle some ultra-right feathers in Japan, but I guess China is the world's second largest economy and still rising whereas the sun has more or less set here.

"Xi has impeccable Communist Party credentials"

Someone should ask Xi why, except for N Korea and couple of other scalawags, virtually no other countries have a communist party in power these days. Also, when is his country going to hold free elections? Never?
