It's about diplomacy, boys! All you hot-to-trot macho tykes out there posturing how much you'd like to kick some Chinese ass are full of shit. The typical chinaman would kung-fu your sorry overweight asses over the trees in a second. Hey, I SAW Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon!
Besides, you forget how much this country really wants China's "bidness" - the US will do anything, include grovel, whimper and apologize (although we haven't really apologized yet), in order to "secure our vital economic interests abroad." There are 82 McDonalds restaurants in Beijing alone. Shrub and Cheney would never do anything to jeopardize further US economic inroads into the Great Yellow Nation. Pizza Hut, Microsoft and GM would never let them.
So go eat a Happy Meal and quit flexing your pansy-assed muscles, kids.
