The U.S. has made a series of moves that aren't too popular with China, The Atlantic Wire's Jake Simpson points out--the Google/censorship standoff, more arms sales to Taiwan, and President Obama's plans to meet with the Dalai Lama--but that hasn't stopped Glenn Beck from suggesting that "China now rules the world," "us," and "our children." The U.S. does owe China about $800 billion, and we do pay China $50 billion per year in interest, but Simpson notes that news of the recent moves must not have reached Beck.
