China, South Korea and Japan's Debt Swap

This pic has no connection to the story

This has to be what Clinton is doing in China this week, shoring up Japan's economy so it doesn't spill over to the rest of the world.  Europe's implosion will be bad enough.

Japan's South Korean Embassy Attacked


Well, it was just one guy with a bottle of gasoline. It has been an ongoing protest over Japan's kidnapping Korean women to be used as "Comfort Women" (sex slaves).

I get the anger, but if Japan apologized for the atrocities, what more can be done?  We need to remember wars and all the damage, and move forward towards peace.  The anger never ends if we don't.  The wars never end if we don't.

Seoul Twin Towers


Trying to play this as not 911 related is a joke, and a joke in really bad taste.

Chinese Trawler Captain Attacks South Korea

So what good comes of this?  Attacking Coast Guard, after being busted fishing (illegally) in their waters?  I hope they cook your dumb ass.

Get Out Of South Korea!

http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-asia-pacific-15533011

This story has gotten ZERO play in the US. "US soldier rapes Korean girl"

From what I have heard, the border between north and south as a total mind-fuck (similar to Vietnam). Get out of there now....

South Korean Pilot Grounded

They think he might fly off to North Korea.

In a shocking turn of events, North Korea grounds all commercial pilots, over concerns they may flee to anywhere..

The Trade Deals Are Done

So I am sure you will want to know who in Congress to blame, when unemployment hits 25%. So I will break it down;

Senate Yeas (alphabetical):
Akaka (D-HI), Alexander (R-TN), Ayotte (R-NH), Barrasso (R-WY), Baucus (D-MT), Begich (D-AK), Bennet (D-CO), Bingaman (D-NM), Blunt (R-MO), Boozman (R-AR), Boxer (D-CA), Brown (R-MA), Burr (R-NC), Cantwell (D-WA), Carper (D-DE), Chambliss (R-GA), Coats (R-IN), Cochran (R-MS), Collins (R-ME), Conrad (D-ND), Coons (D-DE), Corker (R-TN), Cornyn (R-TX), Crapo (R-ID), DeMint (R-SC), Durbin (D-IL), Enzi (R-WY), Feinstein (D-CA), Franken (D-MN), Gillibrand (D-NY), Graham (R-SC), Grassley (R-IA), Hatch (R-UT), Heller (R-NV), Hoeven (R-ND), Hutchison (R-TX), Inhofe (R-OK), Inouye (D-HI), Isakson (R-GA), Johanns (R-NE), Johnson (D-SD), Johnson (R-WI), Kerry (D-MA), Kirk (R-IL), Klobuchar (D-MN), Kohl (D-WI), Kyl (R-AZ), Landrieu (D-LA), Lautenberg (D-NJ), Lee (R-UT), Levin (D-MI), Lieberman (ID-CT), Lugar (R-IN), McCain (R-AZ), McCaskill (D-MO), McConnell (R-KY), Menendez (D-NJ), Mikulski (D-MD), Moran (R-KS), Murkowski (R-AK), Murray (D-WA), Nelson (D-FL), Nelson (D-NE), Paul (R-KY), Portman (R-OH), Pryor (D-AR), Risch (R-ID), Roberts (R-KS), Rubio (R-FL), Schumer (D-NY), Sessions (R-AL), Shaheen (D-NH), Shelby (R-AL), Stabenow (D-MI), Thune (R-SD), Toomey (R-PA), Udall (D-CO), Udall (D-NM), Vitter (R-LA), Warner (D-VA), Webb (D-VA), Wicker (R-MS) and Wyden (D-OR).
To be honest, these are the votes for the South Korean trade deal, not the same for Columbia and Panama. Some Senators voted for one or two of these, but not all three. That is so they can say "I did not support the trade deals" an not be called liars, technically.
More voted for South Korea than any other, and the big problem with this one is, China will use it as an avenue to send products to Korea (re-brand it) and sell in America duty free. These business people really don't get the fact that the rich have sucked all the buying power out of America's middle class and poor. They are wasting their time.

I will post the House votes in a bit....
