In case you haven't heard, the Empire State Building is going to be lit up Red (to celebrate B.O.s new economic policies?) and Yellow (to celebrate our new Foreign Policy?) to celebrate 60 years of COMMUNISM (that's right this is not a typo) in China.
W-h-h-a-a-a-t?
Read it and weep:
Empire State Building to glow red on Chinese anniversary
A Red and Yellow Glow for Celebration, and for Protest
Blood and Treasure On the Empire State Building
Idunno why but it reminds me of an old Metal tune
To the tune of "MAMA WEER ALL CRAZEE NOW" by Quiet Riot (originally Slade [with apologies]):
I don't want to be a patriot like you do
I should't spend my money but still do
Don't stop spendin' c'mon
Another buck now a-c'mon
I wanna lot now so c'mon
That's right, that's right
I said mama but we're all commies now
I said mama but we're all commies now
I said mama but we're all commies now
A you told me overspending won't hurt me
A you tax me and all my people desert me
Don't stop now a-c'mon
Another buck now a-c'mon
I wanna lot now so c'mon
That's right, that's right
I said mama but we're all commies now
I said mama but we're all commies now
I said mama but we're all commies now
Stop it
I don't want to be a patriot like you do
I should't spend my money but still do
Don't stop spendin' c'mon
Another buck now a-c'mon
I wanna lot now so c'mon
That's right, that's right
I said mama but we're all commies now
I said mama but we're all commies now
I said mama but we're all commies now
C'mon c'mon
I said my mama we're all commies now
Repeat to fade
I said mama mama mama mama mama mama mama oh yeah...
And the original has a certain Carter Era Hippie-kitch to it:

I guess that is what happens when you let a hostile country make nearly every consumer good you buy and also underwrite your national debt, you just have to take these little humiliations in stride.
TTFN,
