How China and Saudi Arabia will buy us with our own money.

from the "article" - To avoid the appearance of an actual attack on the United States they extended more and more credit until the credit 'bubble' burst.
no, this isn't worth considering.

If it's true, you can blame the Republicans.

There was a wired article that came out around 2000 that explained how a number of Saudi's were trying to undermine us economically, so I wouldn't say there is zero merit to the idea. The only problem I see is that China is pretty dependent on us. And I would think Saudi is too. But I don't know how anyone could argue that we're not in a pretty compromising position. kj.

Naturally, Blame the Republicans because there are no Barney Franks, Reids, Pelosi or Democrats in congress...everyone knows that. Congress only has or had Republicans no a solitary Democrat that could cause any problems with their votes. Thank you Dennis for reminding of this fact.
Talk about TUNNEL VISION! jezzzzzzzzzzzz

Was that a computer-generated response? Because, it made even less sense than usual for a wingnut post.

Swampy apparently doesn't remember when the Japanese were going to "buy us with our own money".
