I am asking conservatives and liberals to send a message.?

BOYCOTT Chines products and companies who deal with China until China stops supporting NK. Both conservatives and democrats have enough common sense to know that when we buy something from China that we are indirectly supporting NK as China is their main supplier of fuel, weapons, and food. Why should we pay to have this problem. This is not a republican or democrat thing but rather an American way of responding to a problem. If we continue supporting economies that aid countries that hurt us, we are fools.

Update:

We are actually hurting ourselves more in the long run. We spend lots of money on SK, which is our ally. I do like the idea about not repaying the debt though. Money talks.

    that won't solve the problem. we get most of our stuff from China and that would hurt us more than them. the real way to solve the problem is to tell China we won't pay them our borrowed money from them back until they stop supporting NK

    I am not involved too much in politics but do try to avoid products made in China, not for a political reason but because of the lack of quality. Example I recently bought a microwave oven, label as a GE and within a month the entire bottom had shed the paint and commenced to rust. I have had other very bad experiences with products made in China and will avoid buying them at all cost in the future.

    Name a case where boycotting had the effect of resolving international tension. Cuba? Iraq? Iran? It doesn't work.

    China is playing their cards well. They know we have a feckless, dithering president who is all bluster. They know that the West is being slowly gutted of any substance by socialists and the Islamic movement:

    -1/31/07 UK Policy Exchange poll of what young Muslims want: Sharia law, 40%; execute apostates, 36%; women to be veiled, 75%

    -07/09 Denmark: 55% of Muslims think criticizing religion should be forbidden; 64% support curtailing freedom of speech.

    -7/27/08 Timesonline, 33% of UK Muslim students support killing for islam

    -1/30/09 Timesonline: In the UK Muslim growth rate between 2004 and 2008 was 10 times faster than the rest of society

    -2/09 The Finnish Ministry of Defense published a position paper saying: In 1991 there were 300 mosques in Russia. Today there are 8,000, financed by Turkey, Iran and Saudi Arabia

    05/22/07: Pew Research poll said 40% of US Muslims don’t believe Muslims did 9/11; only 58% had a very unfavorable opinion of Al Qaeda; Muslims blame us for Muslim violence against us twice as often as we do; 26% think suicide bombings are justified

    -7/6/06 Pew Global UK poll: 71% muslims are pro-Iran with 60% supporting Iran possessing nukes

    -5/09: Gallup poll said only 33% of US Muslims believe Islam encourages violence against us.

    -5/07 Pew poll: 22% of EU muslims support suicide bombings; Germany 22%, Spain 29%, Britain 35%, France 42%; 86% of EU muslims see increasing pride in Islam as a good thing

    -7/09 U of Maryland poll: Only 3% of world’s Muslims believe Muslims did 9/11

    -8/8/09 Telegraph: Europe's Muslim population has more than doubled in the past 30 years and will have doubled again by 2015

    -9/15/09 Telegraph: #1 newborn boy’s name in London is Mohamed

    -10/28/10 Mailonline: Mohamed is now #1 boy’s name in Britain, double what it was 11 years ago

    Is there a pattern?

    -In 8/09 Bosnia’s Muslim spiritual leader Mustafa Ceric called for Sharia law and declared Christian Serbian Muslim-majority territory boarding Montenegro as Muslim homelands. Yes, the same Muslims we saved from ethnic cleansing when we bombed Christian Serbs are claiming more Serbian land.

    -8/19/10 AndKronos Int’l: Muslims claim land INSIDE Montenegro as Muslim homelands.

    -8/20/10 AsiaNews, Kashmir: Extremist Muslims are demanding Sikhs convert or leave.

    China is buying time for the West to rot away. And Russia just joined China in discarding the dollar.
