I agree with you in part, but what makes you feel that China could not respond? Just curious. I thought they had a pretty beefy nuclear arsenal themselves.
As far as Clintons go, as my eyes melt in the eyesockets from the detonating nuke I am sure my last thought would be of those Clintons. Right.
They are probing us for reaction, and I'm afraid we failed. Now they no we won't do anything.
Time factor, sub launched missiles would take out the command stucture in a matter of minutes. Peking would be glowing before they could be alerted.
Surviving military would not know who hit them (could of been the Russians for all they know) and with the EMP pluse distroying communications plus the fallout and destruction they are going to be busy with their own problems.
In a communist country like China who has been conditioned to take orders from above if you take out the leadership the followers is most likely to surrender than fight.
China's answer to the Global Warming problem: China's dust in the ash can of history.
That would be very stupid of him.
Bush doesn't have the guts to do the right thing, just as his all-Bush-no-balls brother didn't have the guts to do the right thing to stop the judicial torture and murder of Terri Schindler-Schiavo. Seems the brothers only have the courage to do females with a disadvantage. Politically it doesn't get any worse than the backstabbing their both doing on Kathleen Harris who saved them from oblivion. But keeping your word stops at the Texas border for the Bush boys.
China, Hughes Electronics Corp., Boeing Satellite Systems, and Loral Space and Communications Ltd........bump!
Supposedly we get to choose our leaders. If you know of another Teddy Roosevelt, point him out and we'll get to work.
You're forgetting one thing --
mobile sub launchers. If it's nuked, it'll automatically react by attacking the default target, whatever it may be.
Besides, all of the fallout from the nukes detonated in China will come back to the US in a couple of days (wind only goes Eastward....)
The Chinese know the truth. This is their way of flexing some muscle.
We'd spank them. A Taiwan war would be naval and air intense. We would embarrass them. It would be a one sided slaughter. A “Turkey Shoot” of unequivocal size.

The welfare of our nation is questionable thanks to their giving/selling Lucifer's atheist demons the trajectory technology they lacked previously.
I want a satillite weapon that will detect and detonate an ICBM at 2500 feet above the launch site. You shoot, you're dead. So, shoot all you want.
We can do that, we're Americans we can do anything.
