Re: Taiwan is Gone
we don't need to engage in a military spat with the chinks. just close our ports and tell them to jam a few trillion in US bonds up their ass sideways. this would collapse their economy in about a week and give ours a nice boost as we might actually get back to that novel concept of building our own shit.

Tariffs would fix things in a hurry -- but ain't-a-one douche in DC with the balls to even mention the word, much less draw up a plan.
Let's just continue to tax American businesses out of existence, but not charge China a dime, even though they're the ones making all the money. Brilliant strategy.

Re: Taiwan is Gone
Speaking of...
WTF?
Globalists (translation: America haters) get a huge tax break to send our jobs overseas... but they have to pay a bigazz repatriation tax if they want to bring the money back to the USA?
While no one was paying attention, the globalists shoved a huge prosthetic cock up Americans' ass.
I mean, think that one through -- pay people (essentially) to kill American manufacturing, and penalize them if they so much as try to benefit Americans in any way with the money they made by exporting jobs.
Who are these tools in DC working for again? Because to a casual observer (or anyone capable of basic logic) it sure wouldn't appear to be the American People.

Re: Taiwan is Gone
i'll bet another ross perot type would go over well right about now.
a slightly less crazy version version would be nice though.

And I believe it's kind of the de facto replacement for the F-16 -- cheap, and not so dominating that we can't share it with the lesser countries... like canada, for example.
The Raptors stay right here... so we can remove F-16s and F-35s from the sky at will.

Re: Taiwan is Gone
I remember the days when the US sold Iran F-14A Tomcats. How are those aircraft doing these days? Avionics, spare parts, AND tactical pilot training? Not one of these hack countries have the game and they have no chance.
Also, when mvscal made a quick comment about the Chinese swimming to Taiwan... you might want to check out what he meant. Explain to me how powerful the Chinese Navy is.
The only chance they have is our corrupt government continually selling out the citizens they've already thrown under the "Hope and Change" bus.

First off you have no idea what a 'warmonger' is do you? Bush ginned up at least one war and probably two.

Second, aside from the 'warmonger' angle, why must you right wing tards LIE all the time. Bush 'killed' 4881 Americans in 8 years in office. That is 610 a year. BHO has 'killed' 1041 in 2 years or 507 a year.

The point he was making is that Afghanistan has gone to shit since Barry took over. It is a much smaller country, population wise than Iraq. And unlike Iraq, it is a dirt poor shithole that should be left to fester. Iraq on the other hand is rich and was run by a POS that had a nasty habit of attempting to take over the entire region.
Anyone with so much as a shred of honesty and a few functioning brain cells realizes that going into Iraq made way moer sense that going into Afghanistan. All we should have done there was nuke the beejeezus out of the area we suspected Bin Laden was in.
If there is a place that needed taking over more than Iraq, I'd say it was Saudi, but, those fukkers have our pols bought and paid for, on both sides of the isle.
