That's the first picture I've seen of Obama bowing to Hu.
The U.S. has "lost face." Any respect that other countries once had toward us is disappearing. This president has made us the laughing stock of the world.
Restore hope. Regain Respect. Replace Obama!

“China, the largest creditor of the world’s sole superpower, has every right now to demand the United States to address its structural debt problems and ensure the safety of China’s dollar assets,” the commentary said.
Because you, US People, Must continue to buy our stuff or we go broke too.

They’re right about the “bloated social welfare costs”.
Maybe we should cut all welfare, food stamps and Medicaid to those 3rd-4th generation recipients and focus on paying off our loans with the money saved.
Then tell China to go ‘F’ themselves and sell their crappy plastic crap to someone else.

You are right of course. We are an international joke. We had better turn this ship around and get back on course. We are sailing right into a hurricane.

“Must continue to buy our stuff or we go broke too.”
Maybe it is time “free trade” became “fair trade”.

Obama can't stop spending because he has “freebies” to hand out before election. He thinks we should raise taxes to give out more “freebies” instead of just telling the freeloaders the free ride is over.

Cut bloated social programs? Check!
Stop buying Chinese worthless crap? Check!
Stop military spending? Hell no. We are not bent on the destruction of the US, like Dear Leader.
Congress critters are coming home, people. Go see them and give them an earful!

I demand that anti-president Obozo stay within his means and within the confines of the White Hut. I further demand that this puffed up, narcissistic jackass of a communist fulfill America’s responsibilities to Taiwan!

Maybe it is time free trade became fair trade.
So how many new bureaucrats do you favor hiring in order to craft guidelines defining “fairness” in “fair trade” and to enforce these manifestly “fair” guidelines by carefully looking at each and every economic transaction to make sure it is fair? Five hundred thousand new bureaucrats? A million? Two million? How much new and exciting paperwork will these bureaucrats be mandating in their divine bureaucratic wisdom?

Until the bankruptcy of the borrower means the bankruptcy of the lender. Then who is the slave changes.

China gets it, but I doubt “President Downgrade” will listen.

China called on the United States to "cure its addiction to debts" and "learn to live within its means"... First Putin, and now this. How embarrassing. Thanks 0bama. Oh, btw, quit bowing to foreign leaders, that's embarrassing too.

China demands U.S. ‘live within its means’, tighten its collective belt, and pay its debts without intentional devaluation or default. Reasonable, if you’re asking me.
