CARRIER-KILLING MISSILE BEING DEVELOPEDEric Talmadge August 5, 2010, 5:43 PMABOARD THE USS GEORGE WASHINGTON (AP)Nothing projects U.S. global air and sea power more vividly than supercarriers. Bristling with fighter jets that can reach deep into even landlocked trouble zones, America's virtually invincible carrier fleet has long enforced its dominance of the high sea.China may put an end to that...Read the rest of this witless, jingo bombast here.Nothing projects the American spirit of Miles Gloriosus as much as this sort of chest thumping.And nothing misreads what the next--perhaps the ultimate--Sino-American confrontation is going to look like. The Chinese need not risk the dangers inherent in blowing up the U.S. military-industrial complex's favorite toy.They merely need to keep the Renminbi pegged to the U.S. Buck and steadily decline to roll over the proceeds of their U.S. Bond holdings as they come due..

About Me
- Jim Bouman
- Waukesha, Wisconsin, United States
- Of my three score and a few more years, I have lived only three of them more than a bicycle ride from one of the Great Lakes. I'm a "somewhat combative pacifist and a fairly cooperative anarchist," after the example of Grace Paley (1922-2007). I'm almost always cheerful when I pay my taxes and I always, always vote.
