It works the other way around – the Chinese bundle campaign donations for him.

That’s just a kickback for Obumble making sure they can buy the rest of the US at fire-sale prices….

Perfect ending to the Obama bailout.

But the sale is at a far cheaper price than AIG sought and will lead to a substantial loss, the insurer's price for getting out of its last major non-core asset following the U.S. government bailout of the company in the financial crisis.

I’ve gone green with my snow removal, the method is called “Kids With Shovels”.

Posts like that can get you a visit from child welfare and/or the local snow-shoveler union.

For the record, I love to see other people posting it. I mostly do simple google searches, and I know there are tons out there that I miss or I’m not around when an appropriate thread comes up.

Apply liberally.

[...] Hot Air: Let me get my obligatory free-trade qualifier out of the way here first: It’s not so much that there’s anything at all wrong with businesses buying and selling on the international arena, because foreign markets may have demands for products we don’t, and we all stand to make money off of one another in a mutually beneficial and productive way. Free-trade is not a zero-sum game, and everybody wins. [...]

Our govt, over time, has become so corrupt, so easily bought, and our politicians garner such wealth and riches…

All because they have their own rule book, they don’t follow the one the rest of us are obliged to follow.

It’s time for that to stop…

The ‘sickness’ in DC and with pols is their greed…

Scrumpy on December 10, 2012 at 12:17 PM

ROTFLMAO…Indeed, which is why many of us out here in the real world have taken to calling Washington DC… Mordor on the Potomac… We have indeed fallen sway to Sauron, the Dark Lord of Mordor…

You are concise and precise with what you have to say, and I like that!

You are a mine of information! You dig through and find the most interesting and pertinant info that abounds!!

I do believe you should be added to at least the Green Room!

Your commentary is always soooo informative, and I have learned much from your postings!

Many Thanks SW!!

Scrumpy on December 10, 2012 at 12:12 PM

Why thank you Scrumpy, but I doubt that the staff here needs or wants the competition, besides, I don’t know that I have the self discipline that Ed and his crew have clearly displayed in being able to crank out article after article everyday.

The answer is so simple! China and India, watch out, the US may remove a few regulations and take over your manufacturing jobs.

In my best “Pie Supper auctioneer voice”……..

“Ttttttttttttto the hiiiiiiiiiighest bidder. Look at this rrrrrrred Shiite and baaaaluuuuue pie box here. Folks this pie, I just looked in the box is miiiiighty fine. It’s got your natural resources, yer Oceans white and foam and yer purple mountains. With a hayyynkerin of Teaters throughout. Got a lotta potential. Who bids first?………right over there in the Far East corner……Chhhhiiiiiiiiiina. Who’s next?”

THAT is where we are at folks. We’re being sold like a fancy boxed pie at a school pie supper.

Politicians suck.

One would think that rare earth production would be of strategic interest to us.
Too bad we don’t have a president who is actually interested in the welfare of this country.

justltl on December 10, 2012 at 11:54 AM

Yes, a rational and logical individual would think exactly that, however this issue isn’t about rational or logical thinking, it’s about certain groups obtaining and increasing their political power.
