I think it should be the opposite.
I am so sick of China...

(I spent 3 hours on Amazon today trying to find an 8 inch chef knife that WASN’T made in China. I gave up.)

Why not? FDR and Churchill did the same with Stalin. What kind of alliance, though, is the question. Taiwan is too steep a price to pay. Militarily, two nuclear powers do not dare duke it out. Three is even worse. So what can the US offer China? If Putin is too engrossed with his misadventure in Ukraine, Xi might just take advantage and grab Siberia. But then the question is, what atrocities will he commit against the Siberians, who are probably just as compelling a people as the Ukrainians, maybe more so. So for all practical purposes, there’s no basis for an alliance with China.

What Stalin took at the end of the war was bad enough. Repeating the same mistake again would be unforgivable.

So I’ll second your assessment of Shrub’s evil-ness.

Indeed. That idiot used 9/11 as an excuse to strengthen the Patriot Act AND the FISA/FISC later used to attempt to depose a sitting President. He is responsible for DHS and TSA - two of the worst freedom stealing entities this country has. It will take half a century to rid this country of the people and mechanisms he put in place.

Bless his little globalist heart. Just remember he got an envelope at Bush senior’s funeral.
