OUCH - Official government news agency in China calls out Romney

Official government news agency in China calls out Romney
By Chris in Paris on 9/14/2012 07:30:00 PM

Hysterical. There's not much else to say when China's own state news agency calls out Romney like this.

While addressing a rally in the U.S. state of Virginia on Thursday, Romney, just as what he has done along his campaign trail, opened fire on China, claiming that it was Beijing's undervalued RMB currency that forced U.S. manufacturers out of job.

What is more sensational is that this millionaire GOP candidate has vowed to declare China a currency manipulator on the first day of his presidency if elected.

Yet it is rather ironic that a considerable portion of this China-battering politician's wealth was actually obtained by doing business with Chinese companies before he entered politics.

I'm off to google a bit and see.

No, all I see is articles about rmoney accusing President Obama of not dealing well with China. Go figure.

Of course there are some European articles that are good . I'm not seeing anything from around here.

Claiming he is on the right track because he has drawn blood on currency manipulation. Just watch!
