Is Bush ignoring the biggest threat to the US? (well...yeah...but, he's on
vacation...HELLO!!!)


Simulated land, sea and air operations are to be conducted in the Russian Far East and continue on to the Chinese coastal province of Shandong and the Yellow Sea. The joint exercises between a former Communist giant with plenty of military hardware to sell and the current Communist giant with plenty of money to spend does not bode well for the United States.

Speaking of the exercises, dubbed Peace Mission 2005, China's official New China News Agency said they "will help strengthen the capability of the two armed forces in jointly striking international terrorism, extremism and separatism."

3. Sending a message to Cheney and the junta.
'You are not the only power.'

2. Peace Mission 2005?
Wow, as bad American propaganda has gotten, it still doesnt beat the Chinese and Russians at orwellian doublespeak.

5. Ignoring it?
Republicans are probably weeping with joy and nostalgia. The past two decades have been hollow years, having to scrape by with Osama and Clinton's dick. Such weak tea. But the return of the Red Menace? That's a man's brew, baby. Good times around the corner...
