    This is BS! Empire State Building in Red!

    This is total BS and a slap in the face of every American who fought to stop the spread of Communism. The Empire State Building is going to be lit up in Red to "mark" the Communist takeover of China.

    I'm simply appalled by this...

    Bad taste. I mean I kind of like China's government. They tell you that you can only have one child and use word's like "comrade" and "commoner" I sure would love to live there.

    We have to keep them happy. If they stop buying our debt we are effed.

    Yep. Their money is good here; they finance our deficits so the politicians can cut taxes, start programs and buy more votes from "patriotic" Americans (who can't wait to vote for them).

    And, China is not the only repressive regime out there....
