Before Obama, I imagine they thought it was a threat. With Obama, they are holding all the cards

The "Right News for Americans"... LOL. Seriously, why is so much fear and outrage conjured up with articles like this without ever questioning the motives?

At one point, the article says "Once the U.S. is out of the way, Moscow and Beijing may have disagreements, but that would be little comfort to a subjugated United States." Subjugated by what? Chinese, products? Chinese ownership of our debt? Most common goals (historically speaking) behind the expansion of national power have already been achieved through trade agreements. What further subjugation could possibly be achieved through their military action?

The only thing I can think of is the pending race for the last remaining sources of cheap energy, but I don't see how that subjugates Americans to anything we haven't already been subjugated to. Or is this just another example of how fear and outrage is the only thing that matters on the American right?

Fear and Outrage is a tool of the Left. The Article is just trying to give perspective to an already out of control Regime that is Barack Obama. It would be interesting speculating on how Russia and China, allied as one would take on the US considering the fate we have already put ourselves in.

Fear and outrage is a popular tool for ANY tyranny - in Russia it was a tool of the left in Germany it was a tool of the right. In America today it's mostly a tool of the right and Barack Obama's administration is a continuation of the same "regime" that Bush was a part of... But small minds can't see that.

Journalists have long talked about something they call the "nuclear option" which is in China's hands. They call it the nuclear option because it would be as devastating to this country as a nuclear bomb.

Here's how it works... Stop lending money to the U.S.
