Little Boy Obama Meets A Real Man, China's Xi Jinping

We have to leave it up to the small town of  Muscatine in the State of Iowa to welcome back the future leader of the People's Republic of China, Xi Jinping.(photo courtesy of Chinadaily)
Vice President Xi Jinping, (pronounced, shee jin ping  Say it quickly) is 58 years old.  His family suffered under the purges during the cultural revolution.  He has a wealth of personal and professional experience navigating successfully in life as a politician,world leader and as a decent human being.  America should have paid more attention to his visit.  At least in Iowa they know who pays the bills and who to pay attention to.
  
This is a news story of significant and certainly historical consequences and it got, not surprisingly, little to no news coverage in America with the exception of the Wall Street Journal and a few other publications.   For the most part it was, shall we say, "over shadowed" by the more important coverage of Whitney Houston's death and the Obama administration and democrat party agenda to foist the red herring of abortion and birth control alarm on the American left.


I cringe at the thought that Vice President Xi had to suffer through these "grip and grin" photo sessions with this fool and illegitimate President.  (photo courtesy of Chinadaily)

An open letter to Vice President Xi,  "One day soon, maybe when you are President of China, we too will have a new president of your stature and intelligence.  Until then,  we all bow in shame and embarrassment that you must suffer with this idiot.  We, as citizens of the United States, do hereby promise to do better in selecting a leader, the next time. Respectfully yours, All right thinking people in America."

We are pleasantly surprised that Vice President Xi looks poised to become the next leader of China.  As we reported previously here at Naam Bplah we thought the next leader might be General Lin Yuan.  Had General Yuan become the next leader this would not have been good news for America.  Fortunately it looks like our contacts high within the Chinese military industrial complex were correct X is in and Y is out.  Why is X better for the USA than Y you may ask?   As described in the link above Y is old school and an old time Commie Military type and X is really a CINO (Commie In Name Only) who's family belongs to the "Prince Party".  The Pince Party are not militarily agressive people and they are focused on the domestic issues in China.  In fact I suspect they may all be closet capitalists.  But on top of all that why do we like X over Y?

Xi's wife is very attractive and famous in China.  More famous even than her husband.  She is none other than Peng Liyuan.



That's right gentlemen.  We like Xi and we love Xi's wife.  Now to put the cherry on top of the cake.  Here's the hot news.  They have a daughter.  She's hot too, of course, but more importantly she goes to Harvard.  Her name is Xi Mingze (习明泽).  She's 20 years old and her nick name is Xiao Muzi (小木子).  


Above in top photo we find her in blue or is that an aqua blouse with some of her girlfriends from Harvard.  Just above this caption she is in black in a more formal and somber pose.

We here at Naam Bplah welcome and applaud  Xi's rise to power.  We just hope those mushy liberal professors at Harvard don't fill little Xi Mingze head with too much liberal socialist propaganda.  And again, our apologies to her father for having to suffer Obama.

Finally, in honor of the New Year and Dragon's we have some never published before original artwork on Namm Bplah commemorating the New Year.  



Here we have a fanciful dragon ready to strike.



This may look familiar to some as it is an original sketch from the artwork of the 2012 Chinese Stamp.

That's it for today.  Keep your comments and contributions coming our staff of researchers and this artwork isn't cheap.

A Petite Retreat To The Banks Of The Ping River


The Mighty Ping as it makes its way through the heart of Chiang Mai
We apologize  to our audience members who follow us only for our political commentary and give you a promise to return to the fray as soon as we arrive back in the land of milk and honey   We did put our toes back in the water for a few days to cover some of the Republican Primary shenanigans and quest for delegates in Florida but have decided to retreat for a day and bring you some enchanting scenes from a short day trip along the banks of the Ping River.  After this weeks Ping River trip we will be heading to Bangkok, Narita, Japan and then the formally great industrial city of Detroit.   But now for a few minutes enjoy the view from the Ping river of the farm land and rice fields and people who caress it's banks.
A few kilometers outside of the city we found a small paved private road that leads out to the banks of the Ping with a view of a luxurious estate on the opposite bank.  This property could be had at a very modest price.













There is only one problem with this dream.  Foreigners can't
 own property. I often think how that law would 
fly in America.






Thai citizens can own land in 
America but the favor isn't reciprocated.





Many small flower farms dot the land on the banks adjoining the Ping.

These yellow mums don't look like much out in the field.  Really not all that beautiful.

Ok so there is some beauty in the shear uniformity and pride of these simple statements of man's taming of nature.



Ah, but when you put them all together then you really have quite a bouquet!  I called these "Mum"s earlier but Thai's call them "Ben Sat Mas" flowers.





These tiny white little flowers young Thai girls are fond of adonring their hair with are called "Yip So".
