We have a criminal jury system which is superior to any in the world;
and its efficiency is only marred by the difficulty of finding twelve men
every day who don't know anything and can't read.

What's really funny, and I mean, this is a good joke, man, is that the Chi-Comms consider us to be "the enemy." No kidding, the state controlled newspapers often refer to us as an enemy state.

HA HA! Now that's a good joke! I'll bet they're whoopin' it up in Bejing tonight!
 
Yet another black day.

The list of who voted which way would be interesting.

Nikita Khrushchev predicted confidently in a speech in Bucharest, Rumania on June 19, 1962 that: " The United States will eventually fly the Communist Red Flag...the American people will hoist it themselves."

Apparently when clinton is bought he stays bought........I still dont understand the reasoning behind this....fubsy.
 
I think Gore can still expect union support.

Remember how we trash on third party voting?

I mean, imagine union guys: A vote for Ralph Nader is a vote for Bush :)

Even socialists aren't THAT stoopid :)

Serious, though, the China bill isn't a step away from socialism, it's just that the "collective" just got a little bigger, that's all.

Battler.
 
Let's see, that General who said he'd vaporize LA if we tried to stop their plans for Taiwan. And then there was this week's purchase of missiles whose sole purpose is to destroy U.S. Aircraft Carriers. Then we have the typical Chinese slave laborer who only earns 7 bucks a week. Now what in hell do we expect to sell to the 750 million laborers who work for 7 bucks a week? Cars? Ha! Radios? How about jewelry?
The only thing American Corperations get out of this is to send American Manufacturing jobs overseas. Of course that's no big deal because we don't need to manufacture anything here anyway huh? We are an information society. The only real question I have is once all the manufacturing jobs are gone, and we get ourselves into a big war with guess who, how will we manufacture all those things that wars tend to digest like rifles, tanks, uniforms, socks, and hand tools? We'll be screwed. We should probably brace ourselves for a good nuclear confrontation with China because there's no way to beat them militarily. Our military couldn't fight a war like that anymore as Mr. Clinton has sold the military to the chinese already.
I'm Pissed!

Oh for all you San Antonians Lammar Smith voted for this. Remember that come election time.
Ron Paul voted against, but only because of the welfare give-aways to china included in the bill.

Find out just what the people will submit to and you've found out the exact amount of injustice and wrong which will be imposed upon them; and these will continue until they are resisted with either words or blows or with both.
The limits of tyrants are prescribed by the endurance of those whom they oppress.

Good point about manufactureing capability KJM. One of the reasons the North beat the South was because of the North's superior manufacturing capability. Same in WWII. The congess critters probably think you can turn manufacturing on and off over night. As an engineer I know that many non engineers can't understand why a last minute redesign should take more than a couple of hours. It only took them a couple of minutes to change their mind so how long could it take to redraw a couple of lines? :rolleyes:
 
Know what you mean, Phil. I'm an engineer who has worked in the defense business all my life. Sometimes it seems like the gov't thinks everything can be done yesterday for no cost!
 
Let us not forget, that these are the same Chinese, who are taking over our Panama Canal. The same Chinese who have now leased the largest, deep-water port in the Bahamas. And if you were watching the congressional debate on C-Span today, and happened to catch Congressman Dan Burton, the same Chinese, who have now signed a 30 year lease on the Egyptian port of Said.

For those not familiar with the Port Said port, it lies at the northern entrance of the Suez Canal. It is considered one of the most important Egyptian ports due to its distinctive location on the entrance of the most significant waterway in the world (The Suez Canal) and in the middle of the biggest merchant shipping line between Europe and the east. It is moreover the biggest transit port in the world.

For those not familiar. Our Navy would not be able to deploy to the Persian Gulf quickly, without the use of the Suez Canal. If the Chinese wanted. They could shut down the oil flow to Europe, and the rest of the East.(Including the U.S.)

I personally see a well laid out plan coming together here. Cover the globe, where you would be able to virtually shut off any type of imports from coming into the United States. Shut down all canal zones in which the United States Navy would need to quickly deploy. Then side with all those of the Islamic faith, and Russia, then attack the United States, and all her allies. All of this while the American consumers keep yelling for a cheaper pair of tennis shoes.

Make no mistake. The Congress today, passed a death sentence on their own country. The whole lot should be tried for treason.

I live in Dallas.

I would rather have annexed Mexico and opened the borders.

The bill will pass the Senate without doubt, and China will become our best friend in the world, sending us food for our hungry, computers for our poor, rice for our prisoners, cool new hats for cowboys & cowgirls. I could go on, but I can be sarcastic just so long.
 
I find this a little more than interesting.

<BLOCKQUOTE><font size="1" face="Verdana, Arial">quote:</font><HR>George Washington's Vision

Valley Forge, the winter of 1777, American forces were fighting against the British, the most powerful nation in the world. Many believe that only 3% of the American people took part in the struggle for independence, while "Tories" gave aid and comfort to the British cause.

George Washinton's vision is recorded at the Library of Congress

(snip)

"And again I heard the mysterious voice saying, `Son of the Republic, look and learn.' At this the dark, shadowy angel placed a trumpet to his mouth, and blew three distinct blasts; and taking water from the ocean, he sprinkled it upon Europe, Asia and Africa. Then my eyes beheld a fearful scene: from each of these countries arose thick, black clouds that were soon joined into one. Throughout this mass there gleamed a dark red light by which I saw hordes of armed men, who, moving with the cloud, marched by land and sailed by sea to America. Our country was enveloped in this volume of cloud, and I saw these vast armies devastate the whole country and burn the villages, towns and cities that I beheld springing up. As my ears listened to the thundering of the cannon, clashing of swords, and the shouts and cries of millions in mortal combat, I heard again the mysterious voice saying, `Son of the Republic, look and learn.' When the voice had ceased, the dark shadowy angel placed his trumpet once more to his mouth, and blew a long and fearful blast.

"Instantly a light as of a thousand suns shone down from above me, and pierced and broke into fragments the dark cloud which enveloped America. At the same moment the angel upon whose head still shone the word Union, and who bore our national flag in one hand and a sword in the other, descended from the heavens attended by legions of white spirits. These immediately joined the inhabitants of America, who I perceived were well nigh overcome, but who immediately taking courage again, closed up their broken ranks and renewed the battle.

"Again, amid the fearful noise of the conflict, I heard the mysterious voice saying, `Son of the Republic, look and learn.' As the voice ceased, the shadowy angel for the last time dipped water from the ocean and sprinkled it upon America. Instantly the dark cloud rolled back, together with the armies it had brought, leaving the inhabitants of the land victorious!


"Then once more I beheld the villages, towns and cities springing up where I had seen them before, while the bright angel, planting the azure standard he had brought in the midst of them, cried with o loud voice" `While the stars remain, and the heavens send down dew upon the earth, so long shall the Union last.' And taking from his brow the crown on which blazoned the word `UNION,' he placed it upon the Standard while the people, kneeling down, said, `Amen.'

"The scene instantly began to fad and dissolve, and I at last saw nothing but the rising, curling vapor I at first beheld. This also disappearing, I found myself once more gazing upon the mysterious visitor, who, in the same voice I had heard before, said, `Son of the Republic, what you have seen is thus interpreted: three great perils will come upon the Republic. The most fearful is the third, but in this greatest conflict the whole world united shall not prevail against her. Let every child of the Republic learn to live for his God, his land and the Union. With these words the vision vanished, and I started from my seat and felt that I had seen a vision wherein had been shown to me the birth, progress and destiny of the United States."

Support Chinese officials in their quest to bring export AKs into the USA! Call your senator!

OK, I made it up. I admit it.
