Re: 27-Dec-14 World View -- China's nuclear no-first-use pol

I'll tell you who "discovered" America.
The Native American Indians did (called that only because the Great Navigator did not know what Hemisphere he was in).

In America in the mid-2000s, it was the Democrats blaming the Republicans for the Nasdaq crash in 2000.
