Re: Besides, I think China will soon prove "strong and rich enough to pick the reigns" --now, I grant you that China might not be as "stupid" as the US... I see......you would prefer a Chinese hegemony to an American one? Well, all I can say to that is be careful what you wish for. LOL! You sound like a used car salesman desperately talking his customers out of going over to the other car dealership across the street...

Re: ...funny how you tip toed around the issue of where your winter heat comes from. You'd better hope anarcho Russia doesn't decide to cut you off in a fit of anger. Russia ain't the only pebble on the beach: Tuesday, 14 February 2006, 11:15 GMT Qatar's fortunes boom with gas By Lucy Williamson BBC News, Qatar news.bbc.co.uk Qatar Supplants Algeria As Top Belgian Gas Supplier March 2007 \| Contract News Belgian gas company Distrigas has finalised a new deal with Qatar for the supply of natural gas to Belgium for thirty years. This agreement will usurp Algeria from its long-held position as Belgium's primary supplier of liquefied natural gas (LNG) and will reduce Belgian dependence on pipeline supplies, thus contributing towards energy security.

Re: I'm helping you by telling you the truth (at least MY truth) and opening your eyes... How can Europe help the US when it comes to your #1 challenge, namely, Hispanic mass immigration (see my previous post #352348)? Who told you that was our number one problem? Google: google.com

Re: ...while US corporations are quietly gobbled up by COMMUNIST China?!?! (Lenovo/IBM, Haier/Whirlpool,...) Oh yeah.....as if the Chinese were that stupid. What other tall tales are you running today? Now tell me, rent-a-Buffett, what's more "stupid" for the Chinese to do: keep hoarding zillions upon zillions of increasingly worthless US Treasuries (T-bonds, T-bills) until the Bank of China's dollar reserves reach the sky OR start recycling them into US assets/corporations so that US spendthrifts pay off their Chinese debt with their sweat instead of... ever more IOUs???

Re: There is a reason why Europe lost its edge long ago.....unbridled cynicism coupled with insipid arrogance were part of the package that made it happen. Maybe... but Europe kept its edge for about 350 years (from 1600 to 1950) whereas the US has hugged History's limelight for a mere 60 years (1950-2010). Re: To think at one time, you guys were explorers. No longer......the best you can do is hang out, riot at futbol games and be Euro trash. LOL... Likewise, to think that once, you guys fancied yourselves as better and morally superior to the degenerated Europeans... but just look at the mess: Reichstag-9/11, a grotesque, if monstrous, replica of the Nazis' grab of power in 1933(), followed by a pathetic, bloody, slide into the Iraq quagmire --only to widen the mess to Iran... while, back at home, white kids forbid their black fellow classmates from huddling under the same shade-tree! Yet you fancy yourselves as God's chosen freaks! Bent upon lecturing the world's benighted peoples on the charms of US civilization?!? Go figure, huh? Gus () Message 23697441 saunalahti.fi
