So it's not really the amount that Americans are paying for gasoline that's riling the Democrats; it's just that they think the wrong people are collecting the payments.

When oil companies make record profits, it's called "price gouging."

When the government raises gas taxes to record-high levels, it's called "saving the planet."

>>None of this was missed by the 1.2 billion Chinese.<<

Make it 1.35 billion, 1.3 in Mainland China, 0.05 billion overseas Chinese. And ironically, CCTV has not shown most of those insult, but mouth of word and Internet pictures/comment have spread out all over China.
