I’m not quit sure why Republicans love the Chinese so much to have sold out the American worker. Other than slave labor camps and easy toxic dumping there isn’t much for the Republicans in China. For one thing the Chinese government isn’t afraid to prosecute it’s corrupt politicians… for much less than occurred during the Bush/Cheney Corporate Crime Wave.
Ohhh yeeeaaaa, politicians, corporate leaders and even their wife’s are not immune from the long arm of the law. Check it out they’re going down like flies Bo Xilai and his wife or maybe Shanghai party secretary Chen Lianyu who was sentenced to 18 years of hard prison labor for bribery and abuse of power.
WOW I wish our Justice Department would stop wasting our time and tax dollars on medical marijuana growers and focused on those bastards who almost sank our economy and committed war profiteering crimes.
The wrath of GOD will come down upon these evil Republicans before our own Justice Department has enough courage to hold politicians and corporate leaders accountable for their criminal activity. Ohh yeeaaa, look at this… The same day George W. Bush came out of hiding to make a speech on the economy, stock markets around the world had their worst day in years. The GOP is like a dark cloud over the USA. Thanks for nothing all you idiot Republican voters for dragging all Americans down with your poor choices.
