the world is not just about US, to boycott chinese imports would only hurt the american people, not the rich ones, but the poor ones who can only afford fake christmas trees, etc.

Everything he said was true. Their stuff is junk, and the younger generation in the U.S. does not even know what quality means.
China may be getting stronger but that is all dependant on the U.S. importing thier cheap ***.
As i am always saying we need to cut all ties, especially trade with China. Once you take away the U.S. market thier huge population goes back to being a disadvantage instead of an asset. Once you take away the need to have them making fake Christmas trees and toxic toys bound for the U.S. the people are no longer needed and will not be able to eat. Then the riots start and the Chinese government will be so busy quelling dissent they won''t have time or energy to be competing with the U.S. on a global scale.
We need to cut them off. let them support themselves without U.S. help.

The truth is: China is getting stronger both economically and politically each and every day, Cafferty''s comment was full of jealousy! so were some of the comments here! but hey, whose fault was that?
Go, China go!

Why would anyone bad mouth the ChiComs? It''s not like they are supporting Sudan against the people of Dafur; suppressing dissent in Tibet; sending arms to Mugabe in Zimbabwe; etc.

As a Chinese American I condemn this pernicious nonsense which was, in fact, organized by agents provacateur from the Communist Chinese government. Americans should be aware that the Communists have infiltrated hundreds of intelligence agents into the United States in the guise of businessmen and students. In addition to to the usual duties of spies (primarily industrial espionage in this case) they monitor and attempt to control the Chinese America population. Jack Cafferty was absolutely correct to point out that the Communist regime today consists of "basically the same bunch of goons and thugs they''ve been for the last 50 years." No sensible person would read any general anti-Chinese racial animus into his statement.

You call it "political correctness" when it really is taking the consequences of your free speech. It is not the government that is censoring, it is the reaction of the people offended by the speech. If you are afraid of the reaction, then censor yourself, if you can accept the consequence of your words, then by all means exercise your right to free speech.

Or is that the problem, you just want to say whatever you want, and have some government body shielding you from the consequence?

Maybe if China would export products that were safe for human consumption, you would not have to listen to such remarks.

And quite possibly too,, stnkymouth,,if you''d use American tooth paste,,you wouldn''t be afflicted with stinky mouth.

Get used to political correctness replacing freedom of speech. And we have the "nappy headed ho" comment and n****r to thank for that. Now it''s the Asian Americans'' turn to get someone fired. Anybody heard any good Polish jokes?
