Look at the title:
"China to U.S. on Currency Revaluation: Drop Dead"
And look at the comment made by the Deputy Govenor:
"I think [currency flexibility] probably needs a couple of years. China is not providing a time frame. We don't know what the time frame will be."
How did the author, Alan Tonelson, come up with such an inflammatory interpretation of what the Deputy Governor of China had to say?! He (Tonelson) clearly wants to inflame US China relations and take normal disagreements between major trading nations and make them out to be significantly more contentious than they really are.
The anti-China sentiment has clearly taken on a life of its own. One could even say there's a certain tone of political correctness to it.
Because the Deputy Governor's procrastination came a mere day after the Governor claimed it was a "top priority".
Chinese doubletalk for "Drop Dead".
