less pontificating about the same two or three things.

He was about to get another brush-back post on the same subject from here also. His menu is really limited, and delivered on a broken record. My only conclusion is that he is starving for attention and loves to clog up the board with the same stuff repeatedly since well-meaning people set him straight over and over but he seems to have a concrete cranium. A couple posts per day would be more than enough for us to get his vibe.
Only a truly ignorant person cannot recognize when they are being truly ignorant. (he and rooster are brethren of that ilk) Most folks are bright enough to realize when they don't have full grasp of a subject.

His failed attempts at cleverness are good comic relief, such as his poorly disguised attempts at being neutral when his schtick is hating on anything Democratic.
But then he is just trespassing on conix's lawn, and lacks originality.

How America's Biggest Companies Made China Great Again

The big business community made it clear—first to the Clinton administration and then to his successor, George W. Bush—that trade with China was its highest priority. Washington readily agreed. "The Fortune 500 and the U.S. Chamber of Commerce didn't just influence policy," says Alan Tonelson, a veteran trade analyst in Washington, "they made policy."

The first goal for corporate America was to get trade relations normalized "permanently" (known as PNTR, for "permanently normalized trade relations"). Prior to 2000, because of the post Tiananmen hangover, Washington every year would have to decide whether to grant China the same access to the U.S. market that it did other trading partners. With the U.S. Chamber of Commerce and the U.S. China Business Council as point men in Washington, corporate America lobbied hard for the move. More than 600 companies pushed for China's PNTR status. They got what they wanted. After a contentious debate with human rights advocates, the U.S. approved PNTR in 2000.
