    By the Chinese and dimwits, not really anyone else. There were many saying the same thing about the Japanese in the 1980s. Many of our local schools took up teaching Japanese in anticipation. Very funny in retrospect.

    Thats terrific if you want to be a third world tourist destination for the wealthy like Mexico. Tourism is great, but unless you are competeing on education, tech, and myriad of other fields, you will most definitely be the impoverished manservants I described.

    More like you don't tip them. Tipping is an American custom.

    So you are a racist. Good to know.

    We have troops and fleets all over the planet, including your country. You probably didn't mean to, but you just highlighted another reason why the so-called Asian century is complete BS.

    True. Obama is about as socialist as we go, and even he would never be stupid enough to campaign on the idea of being the the hired help for a third world nation. Even if you wanted to campaign on improved trade with your closest neighbors, a worthy goal, would you really go about it by describing the next century as owned by your neighbors? It would be like us calling it the Mexican century, or Jonathin Quick describing it as a Red Wings decade, or Steve Ballmer describing it as an Oracle decade. These are the types of statements that get important people fired.

    Do you not read your own newspapers?

    BTW, I just noticed that Tony Abbott is now favored to win the upcoming election. Good for Austrlia!

    The rest of your post is bullshit and not worth my time. But this little doozy of a comment is a beauty. A little FACT check here. The opposition has been favoured to win next's years November election for the past 18 months according to polls. That is, until 2 of the last 3 polls put the parties as neck and neck. Abbott is losing ground fast and will be lucky to survive leading his own party into the election. His popularity rating is 30% - not bad for a right wing looney but far below the Prime Ministers.

    BTW. China's growth rate is 7.5% down from 9%, how would the US like to be in that situation. Pity the Republicans stuffed the country.

    We've had a democrat in the white house four years.

    We've had democrats in charge of the Senate for 6 years straight.

    We've had democrats in charge of the House 4 of the last 6 years.

    But the economy is something the GOP screwed up singlhandedly. Yeah, that's real astute. Go back to telling us you just vote for your favorite color... It isnt any smarter but it IS believable. Lol. Kinda sad Bob.

    Glad to see you agree. I'll send my condolences on election day.

    When you consider that type of growth is predecated on human rights abuses, lack of labor laws, and a nation with 70% of it's people living in poverty, the obvious answer is no, we would not like to be in that situation. Neither would Australia. China has not even begun to deal with the myriad of complex problems it faces.

    I can appreciate our current 2% growth rate sucks, but what are we to do, our president sucks ass. I have no doubt that replacing Obama with some leadership that wants to lead and compete rather than bow and follow, we will have no problem coming up to a healthy and maintainable 3.5%-5%.

    Two great days of joy coming up. The day that the black muslim antichrist from Kenya gets up and the day that Abbott goes down.

    I voted yesterday in the small airport and handed my sealed envelope over to be delivered. I scared the people there by saying "we should give him another 4 years right?"

    The looks of horror on some of the faces (I should have pulled out the camera) told me I wasn't the only one hoping people have "woken up". Now I see why so many absentee ballots seem to not get counted.

    Obama didn't belong in office for the first 4 years, and he sure as hell hasn't "learned enough on the job" or done enough to deserve another another 4 years.

    I feel bad for anyone that thinks he does. Serious gut check time.

    To quote a truly great man,

    Bob here is the antithesis of Dr. King's dream. There are still too many like him.

    Must be, everyone says I is. Bit confused though, am I a white racist, a reverse racist, a white supremest, a whitey, a white homie. Does passing for aboriginal make me black or do I need to have actual black heritage. When I tell people I am part aboriginal because their racist comments get under my skin and I want to shut them up quick actually make me part aboriginal. Am I revealing my true stuff by leaving the proceeds of my life to aboriginal kids for their education make me black or do I still have to remain white. Does cheering for the black bloke in the US election make me racist. Or something seen to be far, far worse in Australia, cheering for aboriginal boxer, Anthony Mundine, in his fights make me racist.

    I'm obviously very confused here, so I better go take a long walk before coming back and looking through the family tree again.

    Side issue: Obama looking great as the President after Sandy as he wins over Christie the turncoat. Romney compares the aftermath of Sandy to cleaning up the rubbish after a football game - what a wank.

    "Meanwhile, a Salon.com commentator wrote that Mr Romney's Ohio event was ''surreal enough to be a campaign parody, with the candidate comparing the federal government's hurricane relief efforts to the time he and some friends had to clean up a football field strewn with rubbish and paper products''."

    What a difference between disasters and the reactions of governments - Sandy and Katrina.

    You go Obama

    You are a racist because YOU say you are a racist. How slow do you have to be to not understand that? Try contrasting Dr. King's quote with your own and perhaps you'll figure it out, though I'm not hopeful.

    I would say he does. I don't think 4 years was enough to make massive changes. It will take some more time to recover. And don't blame him because the economy is crap because he didn't make it go there.

    Just posting this so I can agree with you on at least ONE point.

    Aside from that, voting for someone based on their color is dumb, regardless of what color you are or what color they are. See MLK quote in post above you.

    Christie has witnessed how the Obama administration handles emergencies in states where the governor doesn't kiss his butt. I'm sure his praise of Obama is at least as authentic as the average North Korean that loudly applauds every time their dear leader so much as belches. Guess Christie took one for his constituents.

    As for Romney, he's been collecting goods for storm victims, and as you'd expect he has been criticized by MSNBC. If he ran into a burning orphanage and singlehandedly managed to rescue all but 1 of 100, the headline would be "Romney Lets Orphan Burn".

    Yeah we know, and I think a tree must have hit you upside your head.

    Do you honestly think this is Obama doing this?

    A prime example of why people half way across the globe should not talk about US Politics.

    Absolutely. Shockingly. Clueless.

    Great to see ON's preferred candidate Newt out on the hustings. Where's he been, staying with Dubya? I thought he'd bring up all those dreadful things he used to say about Mittie and his incompetence and how he shouldn't be President of America, but no, he just stuck to supporting the friendless Todd Akin.

    Obama, please save us from this mob.
