    In reply to The Chinese Had Obama's Name Wrong the Whole Time
    My nephew is in a Mandarin Chinese immersion school- he is 5- and last year in pre-k he was given his Chinese name and it does not sound anything like his name so I am doubting this translation. There are 60,000+ characters and they are for words not the consonants and vowels.

    In reply to The Chinese Had Obama's Name Wrong the Whole Time
    The funny thing is that some news outlets were rejecting the standard transliteration of his name ("Aobama"), and using an alternative, "Oubama". This is hilarious because the Chinese character they used for "Ou" translates to "Europe"; these same news outlets were thus talking about a visit to China by president Eurobama.

    The Roman Empire would have mercilessly crucified Santa and all his Elves. We merely enslaved and sold them off to Keebler where today they work in heartless cookie factories worthy of the literary talents of Upton Sinclair. Enjoy some with your tea today! #barackobama

    Too bad nobody spotted an insect at the Getty. That might (might!) have made something (something!) interesting on this week's PR. #china

    Typicaly fascist nonsense from the Plain-Dealer. I heard from a friend that they have the FEMA death camps set up right behind the office.
