John Kerry Scores an Own Goal

I agree with Senator John Kerry:

“You know the Chinese are looking at us right now and they are just gleeful and incredulous at the way in which one of the great competitors is imploding on itself, because a group of absolutists and extremists don’t understand the implication of what they are doing, and prepared to hold the entire economy hostage and it is unprecedented of anything I have seen in all of the time I have been in public life, and I think it is damaging and dangerous and reckless and irresponsible,” Sen. John Kerry (D-MA) told MSNBC.

I just disagree with him about precisely whom the Chinese find so ruinous to America.  The absolutists without understanding are those whose every thought is bent toward increasing the burden of government upon the citizenry.  It is indeed “damaging and dangerous and reckless and irresponsible”.
