U.S. debt crisis spurs Chinese calls for ‘de-Americanized’ world
The Washington Post ^ | October 14, 2013 | William Wan

Posted on 10/15/2013 6:05:32 AM PDT by Travis McGee

The political standoff in Washington has spawned frustration and growing worries in China, which remains the largest holder of U.S. government debt, as the clock ticks down to a possible U.S. debt default this week.

The crisis shows that China and the rest of the world should start to “de-Americanize,” according to a strongly worded commentary from the Xinhua News Agency, China’s leading government-controlled news outlet.

“The world is still crawling its way out of an economic disaster thanks to the voracious Wall Street elites,” the commentary said. “Such alarming days when the destinies of others are in the hands of a hypocritical nation have to be terminated.”

Just what Obama wants, too.
Reduced/eliminated American influence in the world.

And, at the root of this goal, he wants reduced CHRISTIAN influence in the world.

smoke n' mirrors ...

China's just saying thank you to zero for de-emphasizing The USA as a superpower.

They're only words.

My comment posted after the WaPo article:

Barack Hussein Obama is a lifelong Marxist, first swaddled in red diapers, and moved from one Marxist launching pad to another. One red door after another was opened for him, not based on any academic merit (Where are those secret college transcripts?) but in order to advance him as a tool for the promotion of global socialism. Now he is a position to crash the American economy, and bring his dream of wrecking the formerly free, prosperous and proud United States of America, “fundamentally transforming” it into something like the United Socialist States of America, or the USSA. Inwardly, Obama is now thrilled that he has nearly accomplished his mission of destroying and neutralizing “imperialist” America. Here are a few quotes indicative of his true political orientation, I could fill pages and pages with them.

“To avoid being mistaken for a sellout, I chose my friends carefully. The more politically active black students. The foreign students. The Chicanos. The Marxist professors and structural feminists and punk-rock performance poets.”
“It is this world, a world where cruise ships throw away more food in a day than most residents of Port-au-Prince see in a year, where white folks’ greed runs a world in need, apartheid in one hemisphere, apathy in another hemisphere … That’s the world! On which hope sits.”
Barack Obama, “Dreams From My Father”

There are only about 200 comments so far, and they are overwhelmingly supportive of Dear Leader Obama, and blaming the Tea Party for the fiscal crisis. If you go to “all comments” and “like” the above comment, it will quickly rise to the top, and cause thousands of libtards to spew their Starbucks Mocha Lattes all over their keyboards.

Heck....I'm on board. Let's stop playing world cop. Rebuild our own manufacturing and show the chi-coms how Americans compete in trade. Make America strong again and stop all this pussy footin around.

Pull our forces from the world and beef up our defenses here at home. Create the world's mightiest rapid reaction force in the event we are threatened or our allies. One that will crush opposition...otherwise, leave us alone.

Stop snooping, stop droning, stop pushing our way into other countries business. You mess with America, you'll bring hell down.

I wasn’t always so anti-China trade, but we have made a complete mockery of “trade” wrt China.

What we have is a small group of Americans sending businesses to China, firing Americans.

BRING BACK US JOBS.

Now.

Let’s see. $17 trillion in Federal debt, $70 trillion in unfunded liabilities, wholesale printing of dollars, trillions more in state and municipal debts, continued deficit spending, widespread abortion, pervasive illicit drug use, pornography and fornication, loss of religious faith, neopagan earth worship, endless rules and regulations that are crippling productive capitalism and the creation of wealth.....The United States itself is being “de Americanized” and the Chinese have not had to lift a finger.

Please read reply #4. So far the “most liked” comment is:

“The Nazis could not do it ! The Commies could not do it ! Al Queda could not do it ! BUT, The Tea Party is doing it ! They are destroying the USA through a bloodless coup.”

There were many posts here several years ago and I agree that we needed an economic correction to overcome the prior bad decisions. We never went through this and still need to but now it is BIGGER.

This reminds me of the 60s, 70s and early 80s when the Soviets were always predicting the end of America.

Ironically, the Red Chinese smoke the same type of weed the Soviet Reds did.

If the Chinese want it, the Democrats will make it happen, but because it’s unpopular, the Republicans will get blamed for it, and the Democrats will retain power to be able to do more of China’s bidding. This is EXACTLY what is happening now.

As it stands right now, the US government is the most irrational government in the world and thus its influence on the world, economically and militarily, has turned from benevolent to malevolent.
I know this is difficult to fathom, but the US government is now the greatest enemy to liberty this nation has ever faced.

My comment is now at the top, thanks! I just posted this comment as well, under my original comment, where thousands of WaPo reading libs will see it:

It looks like Obama plans to crash the economy and instigate massive food riots in November. This will be blamed, naturally, on the Evil White Racist Tea Party Republicans. American Pravda, (ABCNNBCBS, the NYT, the WaPo, the LAT) will dutifully serve as Obama’s microphone for this scapegoating.

“States across the country are being told to stop the supplemental nutrition assistance program for the month of November, pending further notice. That’s according to a letter from the U.S. Department of Agriculture. Fox 13 obtained a copy from the Crossroads Urban Center in downtown Salt Lake City. Crossroads says if Utah families don’t get food stamps, they’ll turn to the local food pantries, which are already strapped due to the government shutdown. Homeless people Fox 13 talked to, some who use SNAP, say losing food stamps would mean going hungry.” Fox 13, Salt Lake City, October 14.

Last Saturday’s hours-long EBT “glitch” led to mass panic and near riots in 17 states. Was that just a “warning” from the regime to the GOP to extend his infinite debt ceiling pronto, “or else?” If the EBT system is shut down for even three days, every supermarket will be looted, and riots will sweep our cities that will make 1968 look like a picnic. This is not an accident, this is deliberate.

We’ve seen this kind of deliberate provocation before: Reichstag Fire, anyone? I’m beginning to feel like it’s Berlin, 1933, and my name is Goldstein. And the new “Berlin Zeitung” will be the NYT and the Washington Post.

There is a psychosis in the US. People are getting an inkling the US may not be able to pay off our debts. Here are the numbers, $ 16 trillion in immediate debt, unfunded liablilities (Soc Sec, Medicare/Medicaid, FDIC, Pension Ins funds, etc etc) $ 70 to 100 trillion, Fed Reserve has become the lender of last resort and God knows what liabilities they are on the hook for as the US banks were bailed out for bad mortgages, but not on the books are the international CDO’s SWAPs, derivatives and hedges made in off shore unregulated exchanges and dark pool banking. Rumor has it that the Fed Reserve also printed money to cover foreign banks to avoid its failures cascading into our system. Estimates for such worst case scenario is another $ 100 trillion. In a nutshell the US gov (taxpayers) are on the hook for as much as $ 200 plus trillion. The entire world GDP is about $ 60 trillion. There is no way Americans can pay off a debt that is three to four times the entire global GDP. Tea Party understands this, and Americans do not want to face reality, that the Soc Security and Medicare/Medicaid they paid into all those years is broke and the promises made by politicians of the past cannot be kept. Psychosis is instead of being angry at the bastards that lied, the American people freak out and vent their anger at the messengers, the Tea Party!
The critical decision all Tea Party members need to make, has the US reached a tipping point where the American people are not worth saving and it is time to leave the country to preserve your wealth and the future of your family?
