NY Lawmakers See New Threat In China (Hillary Rodham-Rodham, Schumer)

WASHINGTON -- From underwater nuclear submarines to little hotel soaps that float, New York lawmakers on both ends of the political spectrum are increasingly finding a new threat in

Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton, D-N.Y., offered a grim view of China's impact on the state and the nation in separate appearances recently. She told a New York state construction union that "we're in a global competition, economically, and militarily, with China."

Clinton even used Chinese economic policy to rap President Bush, saying China's holding of U.S. government securities _ at last count nearly $200 billion worth _ essentially makes that communist country a banker to rising U.S. debt.

"It's a little hard to get tough with your banker," said Clinton, who later stopped by a Senate Armed Services subcommittee meeting to question officials about China's plans to build up its navy.

China is also getting grief from the other side of the aisle. Rep. Tom Reynolds, R-Clarence, a powerful House Republican, brought a western New York businessman before Congress this month to testify about what he complained was the blatant rip-off in China of his patented design for cloth-cutting machines.

But the New Yorker who has spent the most time railing against the Chinese is Sen. Charles Schumer, who has accused the country of improperly fixing its currency in order to make U.S.-manufactured goods less competitive around the world.

He also railed against China's failure to open its markets to U.S. products. Schumer, D-N.Y., first voiced concerns three years ago after talking to a Syracuse-area company producing small hotel soaps that tried unsuccessfully to enter the Chinese market. After being shut out, a Chinese government-controlled company then started competing globally against them, Schumer complained.

Well you can teach an old dog new tricks. Except this is an old trick. You will recall that Bill Clinton scored points against Bush I for coddling the Chinese after Tianmen Square. But then Clinton gave China our missile technology, took illegal Chinese Army cash, and declared China our "strategic partner."

underwater nuclear submarines

Are there any other kind?

[Captainpaintball]

Chucky Shmucky and Hitlery are going to be the ones to make the issues that republicans care about fashionable and acceptable in today's P(uss)-C status quo. (Remember Hitlery complaining about the borders a few months back?) The sad thing is that They are the only ones (in the higher ranks of both parties, at least) talking loudly about this issue.

The question is: Will people follow them and vote Democrat, or see through their ass-covering contingency plan and vote for the guys who have been on this issue for years?

And the sad part is, these anti-American treasonists are still walking the streets FREE!! A truly sick system in Washington. Now just watch for the loser libs (Hitlery mainly) to try the same stunt. The far-left libs are now just too easy to figure out.

I'm thinking Hillary thinks most Americans have forgotten the Clinton co-presidency and it's affection for Chinese cash.

"It's a little hard to get tough with your banker," said Clinton

Just a few years ago when New Democrat Third Way hubby was president, Mrs. Clinton said, "It's a little hard to get tough with your backer" when asked about the swarms of Chinese citizens in every nook and cranny of the White House.

Nothing has changed. The New Democrat Third Way "progressive" lady is BS-ing. That's what she does.

"(Wink wink, nudge nudge) Premier Wen Jiabao, you got the DNC's new address?" Hillary.

Who are they? Both sides have been complicit in the erosion of our manufacturing base and economy. Likewise for border control.

It was her husband that sold our missile technology to Red China for campaign contributions!! Before that, they couldn't get a small missile off the ground, let alone a nuclear missile! China sold the technology to Korea, who sold it to Iran!

"Not a single nuclear missile is targeting our children as they sleep tonight," lied Bill Clinton 130 times.

Dozens--because his main donors, Bernard L. Schwartz of Loral, and C. Michael Armstrong of Hughes, faxed 200 pages of our missile guidance secret advantage to China Aerospace a sock puppet of the PLA.

That was in 1995. Thereafter Chinese missiles--rather than crashing and burning like a Howard Dean campaign--had first-class accuracy.

The declassified May 1997 Department of Defense report said "national security was damaged" and a Justice Department investigation was begun.

Clinton signed waivers in 1998 which exonerated the traitorous Clinton donors--making the Clinton co-presidency accessories to treason.

Somehow Hitlery's whining about China just doesn't sound sincere.

[Captainpaintball]

Besides Tom Tancredo, and a few others, they are the same on border security. Besides james Inhoffe, Christopher Cox, and a few others, they are the sameon China as well. All in all, I suspect the republican'ts would be better, when push comes to shove, but they aren't letting us know it!

[vpintheak]

If anyone doesn't have the right to talk like this about China, it is a klinton. Too bad this message is coming out of hellery's mouth. It actually does make an awful lot of sense.

"Not a single nuclear missile is targeting our children
as they sleep tonight," lied Bill Clinton 130 times.

Ah, yes. "For the children", of course.

"we're in a global competition, economically, and militarily, with China."

In which the Clintons helped by selling military secrets to China.

Shut the hell up, HILLARY!

This will work and work well because "W" is out of the loop on the worries of the American people.
The co-president of Mexico is going to hand the congress and the White House to the liberals. He needs to turn his head on and begin to take care of America first.
