Nixon – Don Boys https://donboys.cstnews.com Common Sense for Today Sun, 05 Mar 2023 04:46:50 +0000 en-US hourly 1 https://wordpress.org/?v=4.6.29 China Has Been Eating Our Lunch And Is Sitting Down for Dinner! https://donboys.cstnews.com/china-has-been-eating-our-lunch-and-is-sitting-down-for-dinner https://donboys.cstnews.com/china-has-been-eating-our-lunch-and-is-sitting-down-for-dinner#respond Fri, 09 Jul 2021 16:16:09 +0000 http://donboys.cstnews.com/?p=2876 China has exploded on the world scene in recent years with economic growth never seen in world history. Three years ago, China made no laptops and now makes 40% of those sold worldwide. They produce most of the world’s cell phones and are the number one shoemaker globally, producing half of the world’s shoes! In addition, the Chinese make the television sets that Americans watch.

The American most responsible for Red China’s success is President Richard Nixon, whose trip to China was “the week that changed the world.” It is considered the most important trip ever made by a U.S. President. Nixon’s trip kicked awake the sleeping red dragon.

The trip was a greater disaster than Watergate. While the trip succeeded in driving a wedge between China and the Soviet Union, it also led to the resumption of diplomatic relations in 1979 between America and China, ending 25 years of no communication or diplomatic ties between the two countries.

We are now in a war with China because of Nixon’s “successful” trip.

All United States reporters had been banned from China, yet the Chinese permitted almost a hundred reporters to travel with Nixon and film numerous live events. However, Nixon didn’t know that the people he talked to on the streets and at the Great Wall were selected by the CCP. There were no casual, unplanned conversations. Communist tyrants can’t permit free discussion about anything.

Astute Americans are beginning to understand that truth.

The United States had recognized the Taiwan government as the sole government of China and had no diplomatic relations with China, but Nixon’s trip changed everything. The U.S. switched its attention from Taiwan to China; after all, that’s where the potential, the people, and the power were. America announced, “The United States and Taiwan enjoy a robust unofficial relationship” but went on to say in a 1979 joint communique that we had switched diplomatic recognition from Taipei, Taiwan, to Beijing, China. In the Joint Communique, the United States “recognized the Government of the People’s Republic of China as the sole legal government of China, acknowledging the Chinese position that there is but one China and Taiwan is part of China.”

There, that did it. From now on, the U.S. would pretend that the Red Chinese Government was the genuine representative of Chinese people and not a massive, dreadful prison house of despair. Moreover, we would pretend that Taiwan is not an independent nation, but we were still friends with the Taiwanese after spitting in their faces. American officials made it clear: The United States does not support the independence of Taiwan.

However, it is not that simple. In fact, it’s a quagmire. President Bush was asked on April 25, 2001, “If Taiwan were attacked by China, do we (the U.S.) have an obligation to defend the Taiwanese?” He responded, “Yes, we do.” Biden said on March 8, 2021, “We will continue to assist Taiwan in maintaining a sufficient self-defense capability.” So, while Taiwan does not officially exist, the U.S. will defend them if attacked by the Chinese Communists!

Or are we still pretending?

When Mao was introduced to Nixon upon his arrival, Mao said, “I believe our old friend Chiang Kai-shek would not approve of this.” That may be the most candid, correct, and consequential statement made during the week that changed the world.

Because of Nixon’s trip, China is the most aggressive and militarized nation (over 2.4 million army) on earth. It is the world’s biggest exporter of commodities, with exports of 2.5 trillion U.S. dollars in 2019. Manufactured products account for about 95% of China’s total exports, including automobiles, ships, locomotives, textiles, fertilizers, and electronics. It is the largest consumer in the world and is the second-biggest importer. That phenomenal growth made it the largest manufacturer in 2010, even passing the United States.

China is manufacturing the goods, and debt-ridden Americans are purchasing them. With that money, China buys American treasury bills, which puts us at the mercy of the Red Chinese. China made massive waves recently when they suggested that they might get out of U.S. dollars and sell our notes. When that happens, get out of the way because there will be a stampede for the exits, and millions of people will be trampled underfoot.

Hyperbole? Who knows? Who cares? Who is doing anything about this threat except some wringing of hands, holding the breath, and stomping of feet?

Politicians are taking advantage of China’s excess money, as seen in Hunter Biden’s incredible financial success with a China bank while his dad was vice president. The New York Times “confirmed revelations” that Hunter Biden’s private equity firm secured a $1.5 billion deal from the state-owned Bank of China “while his father was vice president.” Wonder what he provided as collateral for a billion-dollar loan. For sure, it wasn’t his signature.

Some blockbuster news recently suggests it was his father’s name.

One of Hunter Biden’s former business partners, Tony Bobulinski, said, “he heard him and his father, Joe Biden, discuss his dealings with a mysterious Chinese energy firm in 2017 and that the former vice president was due to receive a share of the profits.” But then, maybe Joe has no memory of that collusion with the enemy! Bobulinski added, “The Biden family aggressively leveraged the Biden family name to make millions of dollars from foreign entities even though some were from communist controlled China.”

Greedy Americans cooperating with the Red Chinese think they are brilliant in their financial accomplishments, not realizing they are simply nibbling on a dangling carrot held by a ruthless tyrant.

The unscrupulous use of politicians is one way China has leapfrogged over other industrial nations to first place. But, of course, both China and its U.S. cronies are reciprocal reprobates making barrels of money at others’ expense.

America still has the trophy as the world’s largest economy; however, China is growing three times faster than the U.S. Over the last 30 years, China had the most rapid growth rate globally with an annual average growth of about 10%. This year it has grown slower than any time in the last ten years.

China produces more steel than any other nation, with six of the ten largest steel producers based in China, so it is no surprise that it is the third-largest producer of automobiles worldwide, behind the U.S. and Japan. In addition to steel, China produces more cement and chemical fertilizers than any other nation. Moreover, China produces more cotton textiles than any other nation, explaining their market in socks, t-shirts, and many other cloth items.

China is the largest source of gold globally, with the country mining about 463.7 tons of gold in 2016. China’s gold production has been increasing in recent years and has doubled in the past decade. Coal mining is the third-largest in the world. In addition, China is the fourth-largest oil producer globally. Isn’t it interesting that the U.S. is shutting down its coal mines and cutting back on oil production?

Even the village idiot asks, “Who benefits?”

Agriculture is another primary industry in China’s economy, with the country being both the largest consumer and producer of agricultural products in the world. About 300 million people work in China’s agricultural industry, the majority of whom are small-scale farmers. The most important crop produced in China is rice and is also the largest producer of poultry, eggs, and pigs.

From her impressive financial base, China is buying African nations as it bankrolls mammoth construction projects such as the rail system and the new headquarters of the African Union in Addis Ababa, Ethiopia, some media companies, utilities, and infrastructure, platinum industry, and a theme park in South Africa. Plus, a controversial loan to their troubled power utility, Eskom. Moreover, China has invested heavily in hydropower plants and oil refineries in Angola and Nigeria and a significant upgrade of Zimbabwe’s international airport and new parliament building.

China is also suborning the United States by infiltrating our major colleges and universities. According to the National Association of Scholars, there were 103 Confucius Institutes in the United States, but only 47 are now operating. Fifteen closed their doors on May 18, 2021. During a seizure of common sense, one wonders why there is even one spy institute collecting U.S. intelligence. The institutes are simply fronts for the Chinese Communist Party. Even our feminized Pentagon admits the institutes are a security threat, although China calls them “propaganda centers.” More correctly, they seek to corrupt American academics and give cover for nefarious spy activities.

Why would American educational institutions want anything to do with the Chinese Communist Party? Well, because of the dirty money and because it advances the cause of Communism. What’s not to love for a leftist? According to the Clarion Project, a 2020 investigation revealed “colleges across the United States failed to report nearly $1 billion in foreign gifts from 2013-2018.” The “gifts” came from China, Russia, and Saudi Arabia.

The head of the Chemistry Dept. at Harvard was caught secretly taking $1.5 million from the Chinese to set up a medical research lab in Wuhan. Yes, that Wuhan. He has been indicted by a federal grand jury and will probably go to the slammer for five years. Wonder if he will lose his Harvard tenure?

A UCLA professor was arrested for selling secrets to the CCP and faces 219 years in prison. Other professors in Georgia, Arkansas, Tennessee, West Virginia, etc., are facing jail time for selling out to the CCP.

Not only have U.S. university professors been corrupted, but we have also been invaded by 250,000 student-spies from China. A recent shocking report reveals a Chinese spy defected to America, Dong Jingwei confirmed to U.S. officials that a “third of all Chinese students in U.S. are spies.”

Clearly, we are at war.

Not only are the Chinese buying, bribing, and bullying their way into American education, they own (body and soul) some of our biggest entertainers and athletes, who obviously need more money. The pompous hypocrites in the entertainment and sports world climbed in bed with the Chinese Communists. The greedy Americans want an even bigger share of the consumer pie and freedom in Hong Kong, and human rights for Christians and Muslims are minor issues compared to money.

Professional athletes and actors are so dense or maybe dumb and for sure disloyal that they can’t recognize a dictator from a Democrat, but they are willing to pocket 30 pieces of silver from anyone. Thus, they are members in good standing of the Ancient Dishonorable Order of Judas Iscariot. It’s not about sports or entertainment or popularity; it’s about silver—about 30 pieces. That’s quid pro quo for pandering to and defending the human rights abuses of the Chinese Communist Party.

Treason!

The CCP controls everything in China, including the media covering professional sports, as long as players don’t go rogue and complain about human rights, free speech, religious freedom, and freedom in Hong Kong. If players go off script (written by the CCP), the media contracts for their professional games will be limited or eliminated.

For those who wonder how China’s aggressive behavior will end, it may end with the average American left with a shoeshine kit and instructions on how to say “please” and “thank you” in Chinese.

And I never managed to effectively use chopsticks.

Ferguson Riots: The Death Rattle of a Great Nation Marching into the Dark Night of Racial Wars? https://donboys.cstnews.com/ferguson-riots-the-death-rattle-of-a-great-nation-marching-into-the-dark-night-of-racial-wars https://donboys.cstnews.com/ferguson-riots-the-death-rattle-of-a-great-nation-marching-into-the-dark-night-of-racial-wars#respond Fri, 22 Aug 2014 16:10:11 +0000 http://donboys.cstnews.com/?p=852 Michael Brown was a black thug, no better or worse than a white or Hispanic thug. As I reflect on this I think of a similar incident in Florida. If Michael Brown had a brother, he would look like Travon Martin. In both cases, non-thinking, bigoted Whites and Blacks jumped to the wrong conclusion. They praised the villains (Martin and Brown) and persecuted the victims (Zimmerman and Wilson). I will remind my readers that both Zimmerman and Wilson had blood running from their head wounds. They shot their assailant as any sane person would do.

Obama felt a need to jump into this affair as he did in the Martin case. Obama reproached the Ferguson cops saying, “There’s also no excuse for police to use excessive force against peaceful protests or to throw protesters in jail for lawfully exercising their First Amendment rights.” That is correct; but there is no reason to assume, and for sure no proof, that excessive force was used and there is never a right to rob, resist, rampage, and riot. Obama should call for an unbiased investigation.

The U.S. Attorney General, himself an outspoken black racist, is in Ferguson with a cadre of Department of Justice workers who are investigating the incident. No, they are laying a foundation for a predetermined verdict! Holder has not been reticent to speak out on the matter of race. He called America a “nation of cowards” on racial issues in 2009. Holder has sent a signal that he wants the “correct outcome.” Because of his and Obama’s missionary zeal to “get” the white guy, it sends a signal to irresponsible Blacks to “do their thing.” Holder should do his duty for a change and investigate the Blacks who make a game of cold-cocking Whites. After all, that is a “hate” crime if any crime is.

The spineless governor, Jay Nixon, made an incredibly irresponsible and stupid statement when he declared, “a vigorous prosecution [of the shooting] must now be pursued” thereby absolving the thug and accusing the cop! What an idiot! I think he is a Democrat. Had he done his duty he would have demanded an unbiased, thorough investigation but fearful of a greater racial explosion, he took the cowardly way out.

The mother of Travon Martin, another black thug, has jumped into the fray with her two cents and it really wasn’t worth that. She tried to paint the two dead teens as victims of gun violence without admitting their complicity in crime. In a letter to Michael Brown’s parents she declared, “If they refuse to hear us, we will make them feel us.” Sounds like an ominous threat.

Travon’s mother along with Brown’s mother seems to have the same motivation–to get a pound of flesh and a pot of money when they deserved nothing but scorn for turning a tragedy of a son’s death and the destruction of an innocent man into a farce. Both families are an example of what a broken home and the absence of a strong father with biblical convictions can do.

Protesters have demanded justice for Brown, but they want justification for their own violence. To them all white cops are brutal beasts with a vendetta against all sweet, innocent, unarmed, college-bound blacks. Isn’t it strange that most of these black thugs who get themselves killed are always “innocent,” “a real nice guy,” “wonderful son,” etc.!

If a cop commits a crime, then he should pay the price. Everyone agrees with that but too many Blacks and almost all liberals would not agree that Blacks must be held to the same degree of accountably as everyone else. Special racial treatment for anyone is a perfect definition of racism.

The media is not interested in justice, only a good, on-going story. Most of them are gutless wonders who are lazy, incompetent, or are committed zealots to social engineering. That includes race hustlers like Jesse Jackson, Al Sharpton, and the NAACP. Of course, the Black Panthers are thugs that should be behind bars. None of the above seem to be concerned with the twelve people who were shot and killed in Chicago over the Fourth of July weekend! But then that was black on black killings.

I suggest that the police announce that there will be no protesting except during daylight and all protestors who refuse to disperse on the first order will be arrested and jailed.

Moreover, I suggest that the NAACP and similar black groups stop pandering to the haters and spend time and money helping black families stay together, kids stay in school, promote a work mentality, and preach Bible morality to everyone. The answer to hating, robbing, looting, shooting, racism, and violence is Christ. When men trust Christ, there is a change in their morals, mores, manners, and motives. Many of the protesters seem to have problems with all of them.

We’ve come a long way baby–in the wrong direction. The noise of the protestors (cursing, fighting, and chanting) is the death rattle of a once-great nation marching into a dark night of racial wars.

Welcome to a new brave world where right is wrong; up is down; in is out; and bad is good and justice is demanded–if you are black.

This Baptist Fundamentalist Supports Romney for President! https://donboys.cstnews.com/this-baptist-fundamentalist-supports-romney-for-president https://donboys.cstnews.com/this-baptist-fundamentalist-supports-romney-for-president#comments Wed, 31 Oct 2012 03:47:11 +0000 http://donboys.cstnews.com/?p=169 In 1960, I opposed Jack Kennedy for President because I liked Nixon’s policy positions much better and I had some concern for Kennedy’s Roman Catholicism. The media non-thinkers called us “bigots” who had that concern; but a moron knows that what a man believes will affect his actions as President. It is amazing that anyone would disagree with that. When Kennedy was elected, he did not send a telegram (remember those?) to the Pope telling him to pack for his move to America and his office in the White House would be ready for him. Of course, we did not think the pope would be coming to America but how would the new president be politically influenced by his religion? It was a very legitimate question. A deeply held religious belief will always influence a person’s actions and decisions.

President Harry Truman was a Baptist, but not a very good one; however, what he learned from his church, his grandmother, and his Bible sure affected millions of people on earth, especially Israel. When Israel declared itself a nation on May 14, 1948, Truman was the first world leader to recognize the new state (within eleven minutes of its birth!) against the advice of all his advisors except one. He did it knowing that leading Democrats and most of his close advisors and both the State and War Departments (remember that?) were against the recognition. His religion formed his decision and impacted the world. Yet fools tell us a man’s religion doesn’t matter!

Now we come to Romney. He is a Mormon and has every right to believe what he chooses. Remember that his family is and has been Mormon for generations. Of course Mormonism is a cult, and Billy Graham was way off base when he tried to “uncult” it. Neither Graham, nor anyone else, has the authority to do that. Mormonism has always been identified as a cult by even mushy Christians and I’m not sure how necessary it is to point out some of their beliefs. But I will.

Mormons believe that any human can become a god, and they teach that Adam was actually God who took on a body and this Adam-God (Michael the Archangel) had a physical sexual relationship with the Virgin Mary producing the baby Jesus (Journal of Discourses, Vol. 4, p. 218, 1857). Another bizarre doctrine of the Mormons is that Satan and Jesus are brothers. Additionally, all Mormons will have their own planets to populate with their numerous wives! While those are considered weird beliefs, they would cause no harm to our nation.

No doubt Graham’s promotion of Romney gave a clear signal for all Christians to vote for Romney. I am delighted with that result while I am dismayed that Christians would rally to a candidate simply because Graham supports him. That is the herd instinct that I have been so critical of in others. Many Christians have enormous respect for Graham’s worldwide ministry. While I respect his early preaching, clean life, and punctilious financial record, I have always disagreed with his willingness to accept support from outspoken unbelieving ministers, including Roman Catholics, in his city-wide campaigns. Most Christians will disagree with me, even questioning my motives, but I can live with that.

Christians should be informed on the issues and the Bible. No informed Christian can vote for Obama for many, many reasons. He is a compulsive liar, a man who can tell four lies in a sentence of five words–like Bill Clinton. Obama is a Muslim sympathizer (at least) who has not repudiated Sharia law. In fact, he has been unable to say, “Muslim terrorist” as if it is an untrue statement. He bows to Muslim leaders and betrays Christians, kissing our foes and kicking our friends. He is a strong advocate of abortion on demand funded by taxpayer dollars. Then he hit the bottom when he decided to publicly champion same-sex marriage.

Black Christians are fleeing Obama because of the homosexual issue. They were thrilled to have a Black in the Oval Office but cannot support him further because he climbed into bed with the perverts. Those black leaders should be congratulated for their courage. I think they should have refused to vote for him at any time under any circumstances, but that’s another matter.

It is neither fair nor accurate to compare Romney with loony Communist nuts like Jim Jones or the cultist David Koresh who was shot and incinerated along with 54 adults and 28 children by the U.S. Government for their cultic beliefs. Being weird or cultic does not justify federal murder of U.S. citizens.

Romney believes some weird things; however, he will not be our pastor, but our president. I think he is a man of character, totally honest, very intelligent, a hard worker, with unusual experiences, a strong family man, moderately conservative–all that Obama is not.

I have very close, long-time friends who refuse to vote for Romney and will cast their vote for a non-winnable candidate. They would say that their decision is based on principle but it is a flawed principle. We have always elected flawed presidents! The question is: who is less flawed and will lead America to give us a few more years of relative peace and security? I am convinced that the U.S. and the free world are going over the cliff but Obama will drive us over at 100 miles per hour. Romney may provide a respite from galloping socialism, frantic money printing, our cop-of-the-world attitude, the approaching depression followed by rampant inflation, the butchering of babies, and turning American into Sodom with Gomorrah as a major suburb.

Martin Luther declared, “I’d rather be ruled by a competent Turk than an incompetent Christian.” I would rather be “ruled” by a principled Mormon than a prevaricating Muslim.

Here is one Baptist Fundamentalist who will vote for Mitt Romney. I doubt that he will move all federal offices to Salt Lake City and make the Mormon top honcho his Secretary of State.

Come to think of it, the top honcho could do a better job than Hillary.
