China slammed the human rights record of the United States in response to Washington’s report on rights around the world, saying that U.S. military operations have infringed on rights abroad and that political donations at home have thwarted the country’s democracy.

“American citizens do not enjoy a genuinely equal right to vote,” the report said, citing a decreased turnout in the 2012 presidential election and a voting rate of 57.5 percent. …

Well then they should immediately put an embargo on us and refuse to send us any more of their crap! That will teach us a lesson!

So China has found out about all the hate crime violence and prejudice directed against working straight white male Christians?

I wonder if there's a Chinese word for chutzpah?

Bring back US jobs now.

Stop supporting China with exports.

I’m serious.

That’s my position. Should be a standard and unshakable conservative position IMHO, especially in light of national security, never mind keeping the welfare state in its grave where it belongs—and encouraging traditional families, which are the backbone of society.

Mis-spoke:

We need to keep US jobs in America, and export goods elsewhere.

:D

That’s close, but it kind of understates the case. The classic example of “chutzpah” is the man who kills both his parents, and then begs the court’s mercy because he’s an orphan.
