China is a country which utilizes a great wealth of different sauces in their cooking. This means their sophistication is being greatly underestimated by America's elected congressional vermin and other fools in charge. If we do NOT get rid of the CFRtv and Rothschild owned Associated Press in this country, we as a nation are doomed. To hell with sitcoms, video games, and all the rest of it.
