Unbelievable. Obama’s been in office for only 2 years and already they’re playing Red Chinese commie songs at State Dinners in the White House.
How’s that for hope and change?
The US was humiliated in eyes of Chinese by a song used to inspire anti-Americanism at the Obama State Dinner for Hu Jintao.
Internet users in China are praising the pianist after this great embarrassment at the Obama White House.
Asia One reported:
Chinese web users are acclaiming pianist Lang Lang’s choice of tune for a White House state dinner given in honour of President Hu Jintao – a patriotic theme song from an anti-US war film.
The 28-year-old Chinese virtuoso, who divides his time between China and the United States, has given no indication that he was aware of the nationalistic tinge to his choice at last Wednesday’s dinner entertainment.
But web users in China hailed Lang Lang as a true patriot for playing “My Motherland”, the theme of a famous 1956 Chinese film called “Battle on Shangganling Mountain” set during the Korean War.
The movie of the Battle of Triangle Hill, as it became known, features Chinese troops enduring huge hardship before reinforcements arrive and rout their American enemies.
“It’s deeply meaningful to play this in the United States, but I don’t know if the Americans can understand? Ha ha,” one web user said on leading portal sina.com.
“You really voiced our thoughts,” another wrote. “We do not want to see war, but we are really not afraid of war, and to defend our homeland, we are really not afraid of any great powers.”
Others wondered if the pianist was aware of the song’s history.
“Congratulations!” one said. “On a separate issue, before picking ‘My Motherland’, did you know it was the theme tune for ‘Battle on Shangganling Mountain’?”
On his blog, Lang Lang gushed about his black-tie evening at the White House in the company of Hu and President Barack Obama. He played the piece solo after a piano four-hands with US jazz legend Herbie Hancock.
He wrote that playing “My Motherland” in front of so many dignitaries “seemed like I was telling them about the power of China and the unity of the Chinese”.
Once again… Here is the pro-commie song from the movie “Battle Triangle Hill.”
This song was played for Obama and Hu Jintao at the White House State Dinner:
Unbelievable.
Nice work, Barack.
Is it 2012 yet?

I’ll bet Obammy knew every word to the song!

Just like the Christmas ornament of Mao
NickDeringer commented:
Does O’Barry realize that his condescending, anti-American attitude is only making us more determined to replace him in 2012?
Compare his treatment of the Commies and his treatment of Gordon Brown. Stunning.
Carbon Pootprint commented:
Lang Lang crapped in Obama’s punch bowl, man oh man the world really respects us now bawahahhahahha
Smart power baby, it’s all the rage!!! Of course the cowards in New York media will ignore the intended insult just like they did with the Ground Zero Mosque (that name, that place, opening on that date) and call anyone who points out the insult a racist.
RedBeard commented:
This illustrates the unworthiness of our Dear Leader (as if we need more proof of that).
The only question remaining is whether the Clod-in-Chief knew and approved of this massive insult, or was naively punked by the Chicoms. Neither scenario is better than the other.
Boehner and McConnell were wise to distance themselves from this spectacular disaster of a state function.
sliderblaze commented:
did Obama give him a standing Ovation? Is this that ever elusive SMART POWER we been hearing about?

Stupidest Office of the Chief of Protocol EVAH
mg4us commented:
What a disgrace. . . Dope & Change indeed!. . . I guess that the “O” in Obama is the same “O” one finds in Fool or Incompetent!
apodoca commented:
This is typical. During my travels in Asia, I realized that the Chinese have been taught to hate us and to desire to see us crushed. They are taught that we are warlike and we don’t want them to succeed. They are itching for a war with this because they think it’s time for China to rule the world. This insult is typical Chinese behavior. They think we don’t understand what they are saying and so have a laugh at our expense. In actuality, we do understand their gross abuse of hospitality. Unfortunately for us, we have Teh Impotent Won in office, and he has no idea how to punk China.
Bobbi commented:
The UK Telegraph was trying to make Jintao out to be some kind of a great humanist. Wasn’t he the guy in charge of Titiatamen square? Excuse my spelling

re: #1
“nane huna” :aka: narcissist O’logic:
[Before you dismiss this as simply a bit of cleverness or a waste of time, let me tell you about the rest of the meditation. After the revelation that the sound of one hand clapping must be the same as the sound of two hands clapping, it struck me that this was a nice metaphor for two of the corollaries of the Second Principle of Huna. The basic principle states that there are no limits, which implies that everything is in a relationship to everything else. And that implies that if you change one side of a relationship you change both sides. Even if only one hand changes its position relative to another, unmoving hand, a clapping sound will be produced. We don't have to wait for both sides of a relationship to participate before bringing about beneficial change. Change one side of that relationship and the other side has to change because the relationship has changed.]
totally contained within & of itself :iow: not one iota of tangible reality..

These are the kind of incidents that need to be shown over and over during the campaign season by the Republican nominee. People forget this stuff. They need to be reminded time and time again what an American hater and loser our own president is. Do you remember the Gulf Oil Spill? I do, but now it’s buried. There are millions of examples to remind voters how horrible Zero is.

with a tear in his eye – obama was caught up in the moment. yearning for the days of yester- years….[gag yuck poooo-eeeee]. obama doesn’t care enough to actually care. when you have no alliegance you have no guilt or concern over how your words and deeds projected to others. as if they matter. and off topic – thank God the obama adm has the southern border under control or i’d be scratching my head over drones being used over American cities
[So the Texas agents did what no state or local law enforcement agency had done before in a high-risk operation: They launched a drone] hmmmmm? not that obama or holder would have a “HEY don you think”..moment.

Can you impeach for stupidity? What an embarrassment.
The All Real Numbers Symbol commented:
#18 – Dunno if he can be impeached, but I want to say yes. How is letting America get punked by China not a high crime or misdemeanor?
The thing is, if we could just get teh Senate back, maybe we could get someone to look at the situation because there has be SOMETHING in this horrifying past two years that counts as a high crime or a misdemeanor.
CrackerMike commented:
#15, Mikey, but, but, but, then the New York Slimes would say it’s, drum roll, RAACIST!. I hope the next GOP nominee doesn’t, like did McCain, desire cocktail party invitations and pats on the back by leftists more than winning.
