Walk softly but carry big Chop Sticks

The last thing we need is a show down over trade with China. But it's going to happen. China is feeling flush with power, and the fact they own trillions of dollars over our debt.

Some outside analysis here.

With some early mid-term elections and vulnerable Democrats, plus the fact you have a nation beginning to seriously scratch its collective head about the economy, let's hope the President keeps his cool and doesn't try and play "tough guy" with people tougher than he is.

As usual, the solution is simple. Cut taxes, spend less and pay down the debt. We can go without high speed light rail from Jackass Flats, NV to Fond du Lac, WI.

Oh yeah, give us the stimulus money. It was ours in the first place. We spend, we decide.

Tea anyone?
