A mini-Ice Age looms as dumbbell Democrats persist in promoting the theory of manmade global warming in order to line the pockets of greedy investment bankers, eager to mint money from hot air--literally--and Third World despots seeking massive wealth transfers from the declining West.

China Overtakes Germany as World's Top Exporter



China says its exports surged in December to edge out Germany as the world's biggest exporter.

The official Xinhua news agency reported Sunday that figures from the General Administration for Customs showed that exports jumped 17.7% in December from a year earlier.

Huang Guohua, a statistics official with the customs administration, said the December exports rebound was an important turning point for China's export sector.

Huang added that the jump was an indication that exporters have emerged from their downslide.

However, although China overtook Germany in exports, China's total foreign trade, including exports and imports, fell 13.9% in 2009.
