Great Comment on Mitt Romney and China

Posted by w_thames_the_d on February 1, 2012


Here is a good comment on an article about Mitt Romney’s visit to New Hampshire. In the article, it says that some guy who brought along his friends from China, was disappointed to hear Romney besmirch China in his talks.

WTF?

We now have to pander to the chicoms in our town hall meetings?

Why did anyone bring some one child disappointments to hear the man speak anyway? To them, all this talk about democracy and free speech is as foreign a notion as clean air. BTW, if we are a free country, then why can we not speak freely when chicoms are around?

Tar and feather the moron who brought along the Chinese duds…..

I wish China were our friend. If they were our friend, I would not have to worry about repeated cyber attacks on our computer networks. If they were our friend, I would not see story after story about Chinese spies caught smuggling our secrets to China. If they were our friend they would open their markets to us like we have for them. These Chinese students should not be angry with Mitt Romney for recognizing that China is not acting like a friend. They should be angry with their own government for not acting like a friend to America, which has given them so much. Read more at www.china-threat.com

Worthless Water and Pseudo Salt- Another Day in China

Posted by w_thames_the_d on February 1, 2012


Here are two bits of news about the big stinky- China.

Eschewing forced sterilization and late term abortions, uncle chicom has decided on more aggressive measures of population control.

From Brewskie, here is an article about a cadmium spill unleashed into China’s already faulty water supply.

Here is an artie that the King found. To the Chinese, who redefine the terms deceit, fraud, fake, corrupt, morally inept and indecent, is a story about some typical Chinese who are selling fake salt….wtf?
Yeah, you know that crap that seeps around the edges of an old car battery? The locals have decided to sell that stuff and other toxins as salt.
My question is wtf do they get these ideas? I guess you can say they are a bit creative…

Chinese Expose Shoddy Construction of New Building in Quake Zone.

Posted by w_thames_the_d on February 1, 2012


The excerpt below talks about how Chinese readers exposed shoddy workmanship in a new building in the Sichuan quake zone where tens of thousands died in 2008. The company building the site is a SOE or state owned enterprise, aka commie company used as a front to skim cash, pay for parties and offer as little quality as possible to the plebes…
excerpt
“Last night Sichuan-based Sina Microblog user Dark Clouds at Midnight (子夜的昙) posted an open letter by three Sichuan journalists alerting top leaders in the city of Mianyang, near the epicenter of the 2008 Sichuan earthquake, to alleged construction quality and safety issues at Wanda Plaza, a major commercial project now under construction. In the September 14 open letter, the three journalists allege substandard steel is being illegally used for the project, which is being built by a central-level state-owned enterprise listed on the Fortune Global 500.

Good Site About China

Posted by w_thames_the_d on February 1, 2012


I saw this comment floating around. Also check out the site http://www.chinathreat.com

Comment

“There are some foreigners who have nothing better to do, than to criticize China’s affairs. Now, China firstly does not export revolution, secondly does not export poverty and hunger, or make trouble with you, so why do you still want to complain?” said Vice President Xi. Essentially Xi is saying, as long as we are only oppressing our own people, America should butt out.

This shows that China will continue to be ruled by an authoritarian regime for the next generation of leaders. Why then do American universities who treasure academic freedom make deal after deal with China? The University of Michigan has a joint campus in Shanghai that was the source of the cyber attacks on Google last year. There are many other American universities that have similar deals with China.

How Much for the Chinaman in the Window?- Kidnapping Chinese

Posted by w_thames_the_d on February 1, 2012


Rumor has it that some Chinese were kidnapped in Sudan and then in Egypt. I guess these countries have a dearth of people to squat like blackbirds, spit and cackle like macaw’s, while accomplishing little more on the work site then get in people’s way.

The funny thing is that the chicoms do not care if these people disappear, they have billions to spare….
