“What’s the penalty for cocaine possession in China?”

Hold on.

I’ll get a call into “Obama the Nose” and find out.

Yeah, we liked that poll too.

How Much of the Olympics Will You Watch?

Every Minute, Baby!
  23%
Probably just the Opening Ceremonies and a few favorite events
  14%
Only if there's video of Chinese Police beating up dissidents
  63%

I think this is a GREAT idea. Too bad Bush does not have the testicular fortitude to face the Chinese down like he did with Saddam.

We don't know that for sure. If Bush can dissipate the crisis, fine, but if not he should leave. Then the Chinese lose face.

And I will gladly eat these words with a side of crow if I'm wrong.

LOL!

Man, do I have mixed feelings on this one just based on the title.

GWB muttering, "I wish I could do that." Cheney says sotto voce, "big time!"

Not being reported is President Bush high fiving the Chinese entourage sent to greet him............

Say what you like about Bush but he doesn’t take any of this sort of stuff from anybody. He threatened to send in Helen Thomas. The Chicoms folded like a cheap suitcase.

Real Commies are FOR offshore drilling (see China and Cuba gettin’ it on in the Gulf). The “press” just needs to admit their “errors” and then the ChiComs will let the comrades off the plane.
