Like the illusion of Wall Street, with its vast and powerful investment banks, now shuttered, China too is an illusion perpetuated by the Globalists that gave us the 15,000 mile Caesar salad, poisoned cat food and lead based paint on babies' pacifiers. Like the illusion that money would come from thin air to always push housing prices higher, China has spent a generation pursuing its illusion. Pursuing an unattainable dream to be like the West, while 6000 years of its carefully shepherded top soil blows into the sea.

In Missouri, Obama has a truth squad, where if you said anything factually incorrect ? about him, they would come and arrest you. Sounds like freedom to me.

Is your post an intentional mockery of Rev. Niemoller's famous anti-Nazi poem, mosq?
First they came for the Republicans, And I didn’t speak up because I wasn’t a Republican;
And then they came for the bloggers, And I didn’t speak up because I wasn’t a blogger;
And then they came for the Jews, And I didn’t speak up because I wasn’t a Jew;
And then . . . they came for me . . . And by that time there was no one left to speak up."

Voters' concerns over the U.S. economic crisis have helped lift Democratic presidential candidate Barack Obama to a clear lead over Republican rival John McCain, according to a new NBC News/Wall Street Journal poll.
The survey, conducted just one month before election day, shows Mr. Obama and running mate Joe Biden with 49% of the vote to 43% for Mr. McCain and Sarah Palin. Eight percent of voters say they support neither man or haven't decided.
The poll shows that advantage is driven partly by the economy. Fully six in 10 Americans say economic issues are most important to their vote. And by 46% to 29%, voters say they believe Mr. Obama would handle the economy better than Mr. McCain. The poll of 658 registered voters carries a margin for error of 3.8 percentage points.
By 34% to 29%, voters say Mr. Obama's handling of the financial crisis has left them more reassured about his candidacy rather than less reassured. But Mr. McCain has lost ground during the crisis, with voters saying they're less reassured about him by a 38% to 25% margin.
The recent presidential debates have also hurt the Republican ticket. By 50% to 29%, voters say Messrs. Obama and Biden have done a better job than Mr. McCain and Ms. Palin in debates so far.
The economic crisis adds to concerns about the Iraq War and unhappiness with President Bush to create a decidedly negative backdrop to the election. Just 12% of Americans say the country is headed in the right direction, just 29% approve of Mr. Bush's job performance, and just 13% approve of the job Congress is doing.
But just like Mr. Obama at the top of the ticket, Democrats are preferred in Congressional races as well. By 49% to 36%, voters say they want Democrats to control Congress next year.
How would rocc put it? Oh, I remember:
BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!!!
Rave on, you GOP-sympathizing dweebs. Continue pissing into the wind. Get used to the blowback. _________________ "Thank you for attending the oil age.
