China slammed the human rights record of the United States in response to Washingtons 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 countrys democracy.
The report released Sunday in Chinawhich defines human rights primarily in terms of improving living conditions for its 1.3 billion peoplealso cited gun violence in the U.S. among its examples of human rights violations, saying it was a serious threat to the lives and safety of Americas citizens.
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.

Ah, if only the murdered millions by the CPC would rise up as zombies right now and march on Beijing. You know, the ones with no gun rights . . . never mind talking about equal rights to vote when nobody can vote for anyone besides the CPC in their utopia . . .

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?

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 belongsand encouraging traditional families, which are the backbone of society.

Mis-spoke:
Stop supporting China by sending US jobs there.
We need to keep US jobs in America, and export goods elsewhere.
:D

I ran chutzpah through Googles translator, and ended up with fàngsì (放肆) which literally means presumptuousness.

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.

I don’t doubt that Google cleaned it up for their Chinese masters.
